1. For once I agree with the Syrians!
William ,   Israel   (02.07.10)
Lieberman is a foolish idiot who is dragging Israel down with him. Israel does not need this bouncer diplomacy, sack Lieberman and replace him with a lesser idiot.
2. Only in Israel
Observer   (02.07.10)
A bouncer of a night club and from Moldavia becomes a Foreign Minister of a zionist entity! Root of the problem indeed
3. SYRIA made the verbal threat ,LIEBERMAN ANSWERED
.........DACON9   (02.07.10)
4. Lieberman talks the language our enemies understand
(02.07.10)
...and finally somebody had the balls to tell Assad the truth: you cannot bully Israel and exoect to be treated with gloves. If you piss on us, we won't say "it's raining" anymore - we'll just cut off your dick. And Syria should ponder about its support for terror against Israel and Lebanon, and the many wars it started (and lost) against Israel, and about its friendship with the most reckelss, irresponsible and wild World Enemy #1 - Iran, before accusing Israle of ANYTHING! Everybody knows who the aggressor is, who the terrorist is and who is irresponsible and wild - that person and his family lives in Damascus with friends in Teheran. I am sure that Syria know the way to the Golan Heigths. It should have thought of it BEFORE it attacked Israel and lost! Now the Golan Heights are part of the repaations the Syrians will be expected to pay to Israel as part of ANY future Peace Agreement. But if Syria wants all or nothing, then it should live with the fact that it will have to live with nothing. And if it dares to attack Israel again - it will have to live with far less than it has today. Syria and Assad - don't ignore Lieberman's remarks. They are to the point and very honest! Just as honest as your plans to destroy us!
5. scorned?
alan ,   texas   (02.07.10)
That's cowardice talking. When Israel follows through on it threats, the world and the arabs will take notice and respect her. Being "nice" to arab countries and local terrorists just doesn't work. In fact history proves it has just the opposite effect. Netanyahu should do and say as does Lieberman, then there is a chance for peace,.
6. wrong. syria has a proplem, as do leftists

colin   (02.07.10)
Typical of Ynet to print headlines against Israel The foreign Minister speaks the truth Unaccepted by YNET Any article to ridicule Lieberman and Israel is news to the twisted lieing Ynet.
8. When my enemy hates my foreign minister
Michael   (02.07.10)
Than Lieberman is doing his job. If Syria were to like him I would say there is something wrong. a negative(syria) x a negative (insults)=a positive (Lieberman)

10. Syria makes threats but Liberman is the bad guy
zionist forever   (02.07.10)
Syria threatened to fire missiles on Israeli cities if there was a war. Liberman replies if you fire missiles alot of Syrian soldiers will be killed and it will be the end of Assads regime but he is classed as being aggressive and making threats. Its very fashionable to condemn Liberman because he is a good old fashioned right wing patriot who is willing to speak his mind rather than whats politically correct and saying what foreign politicians like to hear. Assad he is the good guy, as Liberman is the one warning Assad that he will regret it if he starts firing missiles into Israel so what Assad has said conveniently gets ignored but what Liberman wants to start a war. LIBERMAN IS OWED AN APOLOGY FOR THE ATTITUDE BEING TAKEN TOWARDS HIM
11. .God help the Syrian people
Salma ,   Palestine   (02.07.10)
"Syria knows the way to the Golan and the president, Bashar Assad, will fly the flag over the Golan as President Hafez Assad flew the Syrian flag over Quneitra" oh yu broke my heart!!!!
12. Syria scorned by the world
Marcel ,   Florida   (02.07.10)
It troubles the Syrians that the step n' fetchit JewTzipi Livni is gone and there is one who is bold to speak the truth. Soon Syria will be forgotten and buried under rubble.
13. LAUGHTER - !!!.
Arn. ,   SWEDEN.   (02.07.10)
Syrian Information Minister Mohsen Bilal responded to threats made by Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman against Damascus in an ongoing war of words between Israel and Syria. On a tour of Quneitra in the Syrian Golan Heights, Bilal said Lieberman's remarks were "irresponsible, wild, and aggressive, and came from the mouth of a man whom the entire world scorns and whom no one receives". Bilal added that Lieberman has proven "The aggressiveness of this entity (Israel)". The minister also called "to try the officials of this entity in international court because they are harming regional peace and security, and thus harming global peace and security". A VERY KNOWN WISE MAN WROTE - -"FIRST COMES THE FIRST PART AND TELLS THE TRUTH, AND AFTERWARDS COMES THE COUNTERPART AND REVEALS HOW IT REALY IS"- !!!. I THINK LIEBERMAN IS THE COUNTERPART IN THIS MATTER. Arn.
14. Am not a Lieberman fan...but yes but
Syrian Information M ,   World   (02.07.10)
Am not a Lieberman fan...but yes but this Syrian Minister is not whom in any way to say or not if Lieberman is scorned by the world or not- he is simply projecting himelf- who is definitevely scorned and detested by the entire world
15. Syria's foreign minister threatened to launch rockets at ...
Eitan ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (02.07.10)
...Israel's cities!!! Any condemnation by anyone here or by members of the international community. This was a direct call to attack the civilian population of Israel: A war crime and a crime against humanity. This of course would not be the first time Syria commits such crimes. But why is the world is silent, I wonder...??
16. Easy target
StevieT ,   USA   (02.07.10)
Even if his message is on the target, Lieberman's style and past performances make him a disgraceful messenger of official State communiques. The problem rests with Bibi and his maniacal need for power on his terms. If these are his terms, he should fall along with Lieberman.
17. Only in America
Sam ,   USA   (02.07.10)
Can a bartender become President of the United States of America. His name is the great Abraham Lincoln. Syria the puppet of Iran does not like hearing the truth from Lieberman, who does a good job, nor being properly rebuked. tish
18. to # 9 yeah!
Yafa ,   Palestine   (02.07.10)
VIVA LIBERMAN
19. more appropriate
Michael ,   Haifa   (02.07.10)
Lieberman would make an excellent Foreign Minister for the Syrians. They so deserve each other.
20. bial and his threats
alexi   (02.07.10)
Bial, bring pictures of assad like his father into the golan and see if that helps the masses. From killing harriri, to supplying hezbollah and hamas with rockets, bashir's hands drip with blood. And lying-you take the cake-as when assad told the US no fighters were entering iraq from the syrian side. Bashir has one thing going for him-asma. Other than that, he is a liar and terrorist and his regime is rotten to the core. Lieberman stands up and defends himself and you better worry because one day he will bePM. he will not be constrained like olmert, barak and peres and even bibi.You better worry and shut the hell up right now.
21. no15 Eitan
William ,   Israel   (02.07.10)
Eitan said “This was a direct call to attack the civilian population of Israel: A war crime and a crime against humanity”, are you stupid? It is only a war crime IF the Syrians were to ACT on this threat, simply making the threat is NOT a war crime much less a crime against humanity, sheeeh Eitan I thought you had half a brain but your latest rants are making no sense what so ever, sarah B already called you a idiot and i think she hit the bullseye.
22. #1 Ugly,very ugly ,prejudice!
Keren ,   IL-BR   (02.07.10)
Lieberman may not be liked for his political positions but never a job he did honestly should be mentioned. Anyone of us that have reached any position in life ,have passed by difficult times. Only a pampered,bad educated son of a rich ,or an ignorant arab,could speak the way you do about a man who has struggled in life to become something,and in this sense,hats should be off for Lieberman.
23. Ask Quneitra residents...
Keren ,   IL-BR   (02.07.10)
If they would like to be shooted by Israel in the same fashion their compatriots shooted our farmers when Golan was at their wicked hands. And let's profit and say them that one gets what it deserves.They provoqued Israel and now,well..now they have lost,and should learn to shut up and be happy with what they have.
24. actually he is very liked around the world
ghostq   (02.07.10)
the only people who don't like him r left wingers and arabs, but around the world he was very liked. as for syria she is apart of the evil exis I wouldn't worry about her much. cause her future doesn't look bright.
25. to #11 there is no such this as syrian people
ghostq   (02.07.10)
it's franch invention since it's different shiis people with one alawi bedoin trib who controll them with force it was established in 1940, and who ever talk there need the aproval of Asad jr.
26. Best FM Israel ever had
(02.07.10)
27. ARAB HEADLINES??
Brant ,   Hilton Head   (02.07.10)
Anybody ever seen an headline in any ARab paper saying something like ASSAD SCORNED BY ENTIRE WORLD. No-one does a bettter job of dissing Israel than the Israeli press.
28. Lieberman scorned
DT ,   TA Israel   (02.07.10)
Not true of course but Lieberman could count himself privileged if it were when you look at what the "World" is.
29. Liberman has my vote.
Arn ,   Yehud, Israel   (02.07.10)
It's time we had someone who doesn't tremble when on the receiving end of our enemies convoluted spins. Here is one man who knows how - and to whom - to deliver the finger.
30. WHAT IS IN THE NAME
DAVID ,   JUDEA   (02.07.10)
Ynet should officialyy change its name to P(alestinian)Net, reading their headlines is a confusing affair and one can think, that one has landed on a Arab website.
