1. I don't wanna be paranoid but Israel might be behind this!!
Shlomo, the analyst   (08.02.10)
to turn arabs against Hamas and Hizbollah and Iran. Some news are repporting that the rocket were Iranian made. Is it a deliberate operation to worsen even more the US arab allies with iran even further?
2. a just peace

I think you need Dome iron north of Eilat too, you want only for a just peace with your neighbors that cheaper and safe for you than all of the domes-iron
3. SOUTHWEST OF AQABA IS SINAI

The Egyptian government is wriggling.Let me quote Article III,Para.2,Israel-Egypt Peace Treaty: 'Each Party undertakes to ensure that acts or threats of belligerency, hostility, or violence do not originate from and are not committed from within its territory, or by any forces subject to its control or by any other forces stationed on its territory , against the population, citizens or property of the other Party. Each Party also undertakes to refrain from organizing, instigating, inciting, assisting or participating in acts or threats of belligerency, hostility, subversion or violence against the other Party, anywhere, and undertakes to ensure that perpetrators of such acts are brought to justice'. Like it or not,the Egyptian government is obliged to deal with this terrorism,and the US administration is obliged to see to it that it does so.The problem is that the Egyptian government has been half-hearted about living up to the Peace Treaty for many years and the US administration has let it get away with it. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
4. southwest means Israel is responsible
observer   (08.03.10)
the quickness by which Israel said that Sinai was the source of rockets from sheds doubt about involvement of Shin Bet, not the Mossad.
5. "Grad missiles didn`t come from Sinai"
Nora Tel Aviv   (08.03.10)
Who says that? Mubarak, the healthiest guy in Egypt.
6. from where?
observer   (08.03.10)
the costly toy called missile shield, where it is? even the red alert wasn't activated. The worst thing is that remains of the rocket was located only after more that 12 hours, and still Israel says rockets came from Sinai. They did not hear the launching sound, they didn't see the smoke trail, but they still conclude from the explosion on impact and the remains in drainage tank that those came from southwest.
7. More like Shlomo the psychotic

8. hamass nuts want to die, accomodate them please.

9. to #4 no that is not threason for quick response
ghostq   (08.03.10)
the reall reason is; Israel counting every rocket that aimed at her civilians including the direction, including presice documantion. the arab media isn't free or open so the gov will sell you anything.
10. observer lost control
avi ,   haifa   (08.03.10)
if I look at a map of elath and surroundings southwest of elath is only sinai, southeast would be saudi arabia. now every semsible person who reads the news and is not into conspiracy theories knows that the sinai is - in spite of " the tight security" imposed by egypt - a huge weapons cage for hamas. maybe observer does not remember from what peninsula missiles were transported trough tunnels into gaza? anyone who visited sinai knows that you can get everything from the local bedouins. it's only a question of money. since a grad was fired at asquelon, one has to assume that hamas owns this weapon system. it definitively did not come from Israel. so i wonder if there are not more in sinai. nobody says hamas or jihad are using the system expertly but they do shoot them somehow. why would anybody hear "the launching sound" ? don't be ridiculous. and that parts of the rocket were found after 12 h .proves what? no smoke trail. the people on vacation have nothing else to do but to watch the sky for smoke trails. if there is one. do you have any idea what the velocity of a fired grad is? red alert? eilathis don't expect being bombed from areas we are at peace with like egypt.
11. ha ha ha :)
Salma ,   Palestine   (08.03.10)

Hakim ,   Palestine   (08.03.10)
You are not paranoid Israel is behind this. Netanyaho and his Shin Bet did this and everyone knows it. For the first time the tables are turnded against Israel and this is the only way she knows how to react and time will prove this...

14. to Shlomo and n.12
Giulia   (08.03.10)
Yes sure in the middle of touristic season Israel launches rockets upon itself! That's obviuos, and the mayor of Eilat and the hotel owners are also part of the conspiracy, they felt they needed to go bankrupt this summer! They said come on let's lose some money, let's have the hotels lose tourists! Please guys, be rational. Hakim, also, "everybody knows it", through the "Hamas Post"? Palestinians are much better than that, time to boost your economy, write some interesting books, stop relying on the UNWRA, guarantee free press and speech, equal women's rights and show the world that you are a good and deserving people that contributes, under all circumstances, to the well being of the world.
