1. It is their turn to worry, thank God for that.

The fence is the right solution.
2. as we speak
(01.15.10)
saudi arabia presently is starting to build a complete wall around the kingdom to repel terrorists acts from outside saudi arabia. they are entitled to build this wall as america is entitled to build a wall at the border with mexico and as other nations have walls at centain points for security. this is a must to combat jhadists from infiltrating and causing death in the name of islam. israel's wall is 100% proper, no matter what people say or think. it is legal and it is necessary considering the animals and terrorist despotic islamic violent countries that surround it. if it wasn't for global jihad and particularly the arab violence against israel from gaza and west bank, you would have never seen this israeli wall. it wasn;t there before the intifada broke out. but afterwards, israel had full right to build it to protect against terrorist infiltrations from west bank and gaza that killed scores of innocent jewish citizens. egypt has full rights in building this steel wall. they are finally waking up to the threat these animals pose to their security as well. hameed aboughaze, iranian

4. The audacity!
Dan ,   USA   (01.15.10)
Mashaal is complaining to Egypt because they won't be able to dig tunnels to allow illegal smuggling into and out of the country. He's basically saying, "How dare you not let us break your laws! How dare you not let us deligitimize your government! How dare you not let us shore up the Muslim Brotherhood, even though we're an offshoot of them and they're trying to destabilize your country!"
5. you go EGYPT!!! You my boys!!
Bill Avery ,   USA   (01.15.10)
6. Maybe if he said Pretty, Pretty Please with sugar on it.
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (01.15.10)
He should get an award for chutzpah of the year. As Dan #4 says, who are they to tell Egypt, a sovereign nation, that they have a right to dig illegal tunnels into their country?
7. BUILD IT HIGH, BUILD IT WIDE, BUILD IT DEEP!
jewish doctor ,   NYC USA   (01.15.10)
IT WORKED FOR ISRAEL KEEPING THE TERRORists AT BAY. Egypt needs to BUILD IT HIGH, BUILD IT WIDE, BUILD IT DEEP! If it works, build it as fast as possible... you know it works when the pigs start to squeal.!
8. Why is Mashal worried.He lives in Damascus.No wall there!
Alan ,   SA   (01.15.10)
9. #4, Dan
Chatich   (01.15.10)
Are you surprised by this? Hamas has been seething and whining to Israel for years "how dare you not let us kill your people and destroy your state?" It's what they do.
10. Just like they won in Cast Lead
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (01.16.10)
The Arabs never learn. Not only are they lousy liars, but lousy soldiers as well.
11. In the Arab Middle East, sometimes ur brother is enemy
William ,   Israel   (01.16.10)
"A wall (is erected) between enemies and not between brothers," I believe Fatah members were also your brothers once, too.
12. Gaza should declare statehood......
Cali Cal ,   Los Angeles, CA   (01.16.10)
then at least they can open up their seaport and fix up their airport and begin to live with dignity. Gazans can always unite with the West Bank should they ever get their freedom.
13. yeah, right!
tom ,   toronto, canada   (01.16.10)
odd that he should use the term "brother". it's not likely that the egyptians will pay much attention to such a demand from hamas, a branch of the moslem brotherhood, in light of the fact that the brotherhood has been trying to overthrow the egyptian government for over 50 years. "brothers" also don't set fire to brothers' houses. it's no coincidence that egypt relinquished its claims to the gaza strip. having hamas safely bottled up on the other side of the fence, shooting away from them, suits egypt's interests.
14. hamas new tactic is trying to laugh us to death
zionist forever   (01.16.10)
Stop building this wall thats going to make it much more difficult to smuggle weapons to use against Israel. Would't it just make more sense to say please open the borders and give us weapons to use? Sometimes you have to wonder what G-D was thinking when he created the arab mind.
15. Let me introduce myself
Hossni Mubarak ,   Kairo, Egyp   (01.16.10)
My name is Hossni Mubarak. I am one of the cheapest prostitutes in the whole middle east. I am a brutal dictator that serves the interest of the main enemy of the people that I rule. My people are my puppets. I torture, kill and jail anyone who says a single word against me. I am a prostitute of Israel and receive USD 2 bio. every year. I was instructed to build this fence because for me the well being of jewish people is more important than the well being of egyptian people. My days will be gone soon and I fear that my country becomes a modern democracy that will end the peace agreement with Israel.
16. #15-Why is wall for well being of "Jews"-It's for Egyptians
Alan ,   SA   (01.16.10)
well being... Hamas wants to promote Muslim Brotherhood in Egupt.Nobody else wants Hamas-only Iran. Hamas wants to make sabotage on Suez Canal-who are those gangs that Egypt arrested there along Canal?Its your friends. What modern democracy you mean?Like Hamas? THOUSANDS EGYPTIANS are dead fighting for Palestinians in all the Wars since BEFORE 1948! Its enough for them .Why dont you thank Mubarak for being Chief of Egypt Airforce fighting for Pals in 1973 and risking his life for rubbish stories? Omar Suleiman is right guy for you.He knows what to do for you..
