1. EU - GO TO HELL!
Yitzchak ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (02.22.10)
If I were Bibi or Avigdor Lieberman or any self-respecting Jew and Israeli, I would tell the EU - If we have to, we'll do it again. And if you don't like it -GO TO HELL! Stop trading with us - YOU lose. Not us.
2. #1 well you are not Bibi or Avigdor, so get real..
Rachel ,   Tel Aviv   (02.22.10)
Your suggestion that we should stop trading with the EU is the biggest crap I've heard all morning. I really believe that maybe the UK, France rest of EU expect more of us here in Israel, the only democracy in the middle east. Who knows whether they 'summon' arab countries or demand apologies or not, I dont know and from the sounds of your talkback I assume you def do not know. I am sure that they have and do, readers of Ynet just forget it as its news thats older than 2 weeks and didnt come with shiny photographs. The very suggestion to end trades with Europe is SO ridiculous even trade between Israel and UK alone was more than £3 billion British pounds, thats a zillion Shekels,or about $6 billion dollars, as the dollar is and has been so weak for the last few years compared to the Brit pound. Facts, in 2008 - almost 300 solely owned Israeli firms operated in the UK. And over 60 are currently raising capital on the London Stock Exchange. The Tel Aviv Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange created a partnership - in 2008 that saw the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange GROW by 32%. How do you expect that we can survive in the world if we cut off one of the worlds largest, if not collectively as a whole, *the* largest economy in the world.
3. you know the idiots forget that
ghostq   (02.22.10)
if they will ban from Israel these actions now terrorists will feel free to go to the UK and Irland, and when they will need Israel help and cooperation Israel can tell we want to but we can't. and I will say naturaly I told you so. ti hi they don't think on the future just on their ego for now.
4. BE CARFULL!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sama ,   Palestine   (02.22.10)
I am afraid that the slip of Lieberman tongue recognizes the crime of the Mossad in Dubai!! I propose to send with Lieberman Meir Dagan to stand on the issue himself :)
5. Too bad
(02.22.10)
When Putin sent his forces to murder Litvinenko, the Europeans were not angry. Too bad for Israel that Mabhouh was an Arab who killed Jew and not an anti-corruption activist like Litvinenko.
6. assasination
colin   (02.22.10)
Do these same EU foreign ministers agree with suiside killers. Are terrorists only freedom fighters to them ?? What happened in Brittian and Spain by killers was not condemned. Agents that seek ,find and assasinate killers like mohammed al mabhouh must be congratulated and awarded medals after ridding the world of these vermen.Let these EU ministers also clearly recommend that suiside killers of innocent people be congratulated on killings well done even if these bombs are in thier respective countries. THEN EU CONDEM ASSASINATIONS.
7. Israel
Fadl ,   Dubai UAE   (02.22.10)
Who does Israel think they are above the international law,well fact is they are, a disgusting act on our land shame on you and the countries which dont take action are cowards.
8. Who gives a crap what the EU says.
Avi The Builder ,   Eretz Yisrael   (02.22.10)
They can all go to hell. The Middle East is a much safer place with out this terrorist roaming around.
9. What if
What if   (02.22.10)
For example, NATO find out where Osama is hiding, say in Pakistan somewhere, and then send a team With false beard and false Pakistani passports, to get closer to him and assassinate him. Do any of you think that anyone will create a big huha about using false Pakistani passports or Saudi documents or whatever in order to get rid of Osama? The answer is no, no one would give a damn, in fact the team would get a medal. But when it come to Israel..........well that is a different matter isn't it.........Israel is doing what is good for it's people?........that is not allowed...........
10. wow, EU's moral inversion
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (02.22.10)
a terrorist can kill innocent people because he's a terrorist. when said terrorist is killed, the EU is outraged. at least we know what is "outrageous" in the eyes of the EU.
11. OMG!! OH WOW!!! "EU lets off big wet raspberry" !!!
Scott   (02.22.10)
...What will Israel do??? Huge significance.
12. What Hypocrits
Grootkak ,   South Africa   (02.22.10)
The terrorist was himself using a forged Passport- What about that ???
13. #1 - It seems you are holding too much hot air inside !!
(02.22.10)
14. Europe as well as the Arabs are pleased with Mabhouh's death
Eitan ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (02.22.10)
and since this is the case, why are they afraid to express their pleasure...?? Whoever killed this master terrorist did a major service to humanity by probably saving the lives of hundreds if not thousands civilians. Is the fact that these saved lives are Jewish the reason why few express their appreciation for his death...??
15. to #7 since when you arabs determin euro
ghostq   (02.22.10)
laws? this isn't yours to say, and your country give refuge to mass murderers, so I won't be so worry about breaking international law your country didn't caught the murder so others did it for you, after all he could have got near your home get your money to kill others, I think you r lucky to have Israel as hating subject cause you find easy way to wast your angry on but in reality you should adress your gov not to support terrorism.
16. to #4 lol we can send abu mazen for supporting
ghostq   (02.22.10)
Munchen massacre.
17. # 4 Sorry
Salma ,   Palestine   (02.22.10)
Sorry ,I did not mean fake my name:)
18. EU - blind,foolish cowards!
Jaacov Baumann   (02.22.10)
The EU thinks that by supporting the enemies of Israel, these enemies would spare the EU ! Fools - ''on saturday we take the saturday people and on sunday we take the sunday people'' ! Israel will be helped by its faithful God - but who is gonna help the EU ? Time for correction is little as is the hope for correction !
19. terminating the 'terminator'
Le terminateur....   (02.22.10)
Anger over reducing a notorious killer to a corpse? his going to hell to rejoin his "freres d'armes" ?. Eu, France, you've come a long way since Roncevaux. Between Eta, Arafat, Carlos the Jackal and a few others, you have learned to live with top-of-the line killers. And rightfully so, you are upset when this delicate balance, power sharing, is tempered with. Notwithstanding the 10's of thousands false, fake, stolen passports from every country on earth, Israel has suddenly become a convenient scapegoat..... as long as the arabs approve, it's fine with Europe. The oil will continue to flow.
20. GOOD JOB !!!
evaris ,   india   (02.22.10)
Whoever has killed Mahmoud al-Mabhouh has done a good job afterall he is a militant....i wish even the Indian govt. forms such a vigour to take the fight on to them in Kashmir.....guess they cud learn a lesson or two from Israel.....as a Indian im tired of seeing so many of our people die due to these militants
21. Has anyone commented on the large number of Muslim citizens
EST ,   Miami USA   (02.22.10)
in ALL these countries complaining that Israel used fake passports from them? How about their Muslim citizens, friends of Fath, etc., who work in their passport issuing, control, etc. offices copied the passport of these citizens and used them for their own purposes???? knowing that Israel would be blamed. After all, if you have a baroness Tonge, with governmental priviledges in the UK ... anything is possible; especially when they are openly anti-Semitic like that!
22. EU's true hypocritical colors exposed
Tahl ,   Ashdod, Israel   (02.22.10)
According to the EU's double-standard, it is OK for terrorists to kill and abduct Israeli citizens worldwide, as the EU hardly utters a word of condemnation about that. But when Israel retaliates against these very same murderers, all hell breaks loose and Israel is crucified with holy indignation. And as another example of this double-standard - I don't recall Russia facing similar heat from the EU, after they used forged passports to infiltrate to Britain in order to murder Litvinenko - who unlike Mabhouh wasn't a terrorist, and his sole 'crime' was speaking out against Putin. If it wasn't clear until now, finally the EU's true hypocritical colors are exposed in broad daylight.
23. EU to express anger towards Israel over Dubai killing
robert wallace   (02.22.10)
Thou shall not kill. Moses must be weeping to see the children of Israel stray so far from righteousness. Can Judaism still be called a religion when they can so easily go against there most basic tenets? my heart breaks to see what we have become.
24. This is just a charade..
Ram ,   London   (02.22.10)
and it can only be a charade. Europe has to be seen to be rapping Israel to appease both the anti-semites within it and the wider Islamic community. The EU is too deeply entwined with Israel in too many fields to list, not discounting intelligence and reconnaisance work. Apart from this fact one must remember that the world "only suspects" Israel's involvement in this. I will bet anything that the elimination of Mabhouh involved the co-operation of more than one state. The "judicial killing" libel is nothing but a load of c**p because this does not apply to terrorists, not by the UK, US, EU Pakistan, Yemen etc etc. Let's all calm down and see where all this brouhaha leads to. My guess is "absolutely nowhere". There will be no embargos of any sort!
25. I guess that means
Christopher ,   Boston, MASS   (02.22.10)
that NATO will be ceasing their use of drones and Special Forces in Pakistan to assassinate Taliban leaders. I mean fair is fair...or are there yet again separate rules of war for Jews and all others?
26. rb countries are safe haven for the terrorist
Uri   (02.22.10)
no more
27. to #23 killing one mass murderer is not sin
ghostq   (02.22.10)
go look it up, he killed many innocents. so justice finally done.
28. Justice to murderers
Simon ,   HCMC vietnam   (02.22.10)
It is two options: to bring murderers to justice or to bring justice to murderers’ as American President said.
29. robert wallace is obviously no biblical scholar
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, USA   (02.22.10)
wallace writes, "Thou shall not kill. Moses must be weeping to see the children of Israel stray so far from righteousness." The command in Hebrew is "Lo tirtzach" which means "Do not MURDER", not "Do not kill". Indeed, the Torah includes directives to wage war against those who aggress against the Children of Israel. There's nothing righteous about restraint when someone is intent on killing you.
30. EU and Dubai
Simon ,   HCMC Vietnam   (02.22.10)
Why EU has no concerns regarding murderers free visiting Dubai, or it is advertising for Dubai prosperity and stability? In place to be quite as Syrians regarding their nuclear reactor destruction Dubai scream to all world that they are sanctuary for terrorists and murderers!
