1. Rewarding bad behavior will bring more bad behavior
Steve ,   Atlanta USA   (04.23.10)
Seems kind of obvious that Syria, Iran, China, Russia and every other country, is spitting in Obama's face and laughing. Obama is an idiot.
2. US "concerned" - will do nothing about it
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, USA   (04.24.10)
Yeah, they'll call in the Syrian ambassador and share their displeasure, or maybe "condemn" it publicly (meaning it's equivalent to Israel building an apartment for a Jew). Beyond that, the US won't do squat. No one but Israel takes US displeasure seriously. Because no one but Israel is made to pay a price.
3. Try a different tact...
Jew   (04.24.10)
When more of the media refers to the Jews in Israel as "Jewish Palestinians" then the notion of "Palestinians" as being the originals of "Palestine" will cease to exist. Of course Jews have been there as long if not longer than other inhabitants. And Israel the nation of the Jews. Read about Jewish Palestine here...Prof. Auron started his presentation by quoting from an article written in 1918 by Shmuel Talkowsky, the secretary of Chaim Weitzmann, who later became the first president of Israel. Talkowsky deplored the “martyrdom” of Armenians and suggested that “a free and happy Armenia, a free and happy Arabia, and a free and happy Jewish Palestine are the three pillars on which will rest the future peace and welfare of the Middle East.” Dr. Auron expressed his regret that the policy of the State of Israel today is far from the principles enunciated by Talkowsky in 1918. Change the terminology and you win the war of words.

Ron B. ,   Lod   (04.24.10)
We should not wait : We should beat the Hezbullah to the ground. If “the next attack on Israel is not a matter of ‘if’ but ‘when’” we should not wait. As we have seen in the last Lebanon war, terrorist attacks can shake the foundations of our buildings, but they cannot touch the foundation of the Israeli society. We should beat the Hezbullah to the ground and make no distinction between the terrorists and those who harbor them. We stand together to win the war against terrorism. We should be prepared to fight them without any other consideration than beat them as explained at: http://xrl.us/oowhv
6. Hizbullah achieved Logistics perfection thanks to Lieberman
Tayfun_Turkey ,   Istanbul   (04.24.10)
Previously any arms shipment from Syria to Hizbullah was almost impossible as they had to go through all Lebonan full of hostile fractions to Hizbullah. But now from Lebonanese government to Druze and all other Lebonanese elements support Hizbullah and they will even help shipments. Thanks to Lieberman who united Lebonan and repaired relations of Lebonan with Syria. Lieberman is a wonderful FM and I think he must be PM or President of Israel soon.
7. REALLY REALLY SERIOUS CONCERNS OF USEFULL IDIOTS !!!.
Arn. ,   SWEDEN.   (04.24.10)
Jeffrey Feltman, the assistant secretary of state for the Middle East, said Wednesday the United States would have "really, really serious concerns" if Syria had delivered such high-grade weapons to Hezbollah. WHEN THE SOCIALDEMOCRATS, THE USEFULL IDIOTS OF SWEDEN, CHANGED THE LAWS REGARDING THE PARENTS RIGHT TO PUNISH THEIR CHILDREN, TAKING IT AWAY, THIS PHENOMENOM COULD ERUPT. WHEN THEY WHERE SMALL CHILDREN AND DID SOMETHING VERY BAD, YOU COULD ONLY TALK THE CHILDREN TO THEIR SENSES . WHEN THEY BEGAN SCHOOL AND DID SOMETHING VERY BAD, THE TEACHERS COULD ONLY TALK THEM TO THEIR SENSES, AND IF FAILING, CALL THE POLICE. WHEN THE BECAME TEENAGERS, AND DID SOMETHING VERY BAD, KILLING SOMEBODY FOR EXAMPLE, THEY COULD BE TAKEN ON TOUR TO THE WESTINDIES, ON SMALLER SAILINGBOATS, TO BE TEACHED RESPONSIBILITY, AND TALKED TO THEIR SENSES. THIS IS IN PRINCIPLE, THE OUTCOME AND RESULTS, IN ALL MATTERS, REGARDING THE ERRING HUMANITARIAN IDEOLOGY OF THE USEFUL IDIOTS !!!. GOD BEVERE !!!. Arn.
8. TALKBACKER NMBER 6.
Arn. ,   SWEDEN.   (04.24.10)
ACCORDING TO THIS ONE AS A PRINCIPLE, - ALL BEHAVIOUR OF ISRAELS ENEMIES IS TO BLAME THE JEWS FOR, THUS - Previously any arms shipment from Syria to Hizbullah was almost impossible as they had to go through all Lebonan full of hostile fractions to Hizbullah. But now from Lebonanese government to Druze and all other Lebonanese elements support Hizbullah and they will even help shipments. Thanks to Lieberman who united Lebonan and repaired relations of Lebonan with Syria. Lieberman is a wonderful FM and I think he must be PM or President of Israel soon. Tayfun_Turkey , Istanbul (04.24.10) - TIME TO FLUSS - ??? BECAUSE TO ME THIS ONE SEEMS TO BE NOTHING BUT, AN IDIOT AND ANTISEMITE. Arn.
9. The newer guided missiles are very dangerous
Bloodyscot ,   Dallas, Texas   (04.24.10)
Syria now has a cheap way to turn older missiles into semi-guided missiles with newer cell phone tech. with GPS and rear controller fins. The real question is how easy can they be jammed and will jamming cover all of Israel or just the areas closer to the border. Israel as other year maybe two before this becomes a major issue but time is short. Being able to hit a city is one thing but to be able to pin point one building in a city is dangerous.
10. Worst US Admin Ever
W. ,   Beirut, Lebanon   (04.24.10)
Even worse than that of Jimmy Carter. I trust the next president will have a lot of house-cleaning to do.
11. Like rewarding Obama's bad behaviour of not saluting the US
BW   (04.24.10)
flag with being its President.
12. i guess the idiot assad
Barney ,   USA   (04.24.10)
has forgotten the buzzing of his palace by Israeli aircraft. perhaps the next buzz will be a buzz/boom. some people are hard headed and must be shown the hard way
13. # 9
Hal ,   USA   (04.25.10)
I don't care how many missles the Syrians or the Hezzies have. If they ever go down that road, it will be the meat axe for all of them. In 2006, Hezballah fired up to 4000 rockets into Israel and caused minimal damage. The same can't be said of Lebanon, and Israel wasn't breaking a sweat. Can you possibly imagine if both Syria and Hezballah were firing missles at Israel ? For one thing, there will be no crying to the UN that will keep Israel from obliterating every functional scrap of what makes both Syria and Lebanon modern countries. Talk is cheap and Assad is jawjacking on the Fatman's dime. They both won't cash that check!
