1. If Ahmadinejad visits the border ....
Terry ,   Eilat - Israel   (09.29.10)
We should bomb the hell out of him. I believe this would send the correct message to Teheran & our other neighbors that we mean business. This is what works in the Middle-East. Sure, we'd get lots of static from the usual culprits, at least in public. But most Middle-Eastern regimes would have a lot of respect for our action.
2. Alawite tricks
hebrew prophet ,   israel   (09.29.10)
Why is the Alawite dictator of Damascu s so concerned about the Shiite puppet,s visit to Lebanon ,;surely Bashar doesn,t think that Israel will suddenly return the Golan without an everlasting peace treaty ,but then who knows how these Arab minds work ?
3. PLEASE DON'T CHICKEN OUT
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (09.29.10)
You have a paying audience so don't let your fans down .THE SHOW MUST GO ON..

raz barr ,   haifa   (09.29.10)
You are 100% right! I couldnt agree more
5. Its what might be sparked off by that stone throwing yob!
Mr Green ,   Manchester   (09.29.10)
Israeli retaliation across the Northern border: Natanyahus shoes Liebermans lunch Israeli 50 Calibre Falafel Balls High Power 22 Calibre Israeli Fish Balls Giant Matzo balls Singing Hava Nagila at 130 decibels - enough to drive anyone mad! And the weapon of last resort... A giant photo of Nasrallah eating his lunch
6. Time for action
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (09.29.10)
Get thousands of Israelis to dress up as monkeys talk monkey talk and lob bananas over the fence to their brother What a picture!
7. Report is Baloney
Dovy ,   Toronto   (09.29.10)
Unsourced propaganda report, yeah right. Assad is worried about poor little Israel's nerves of insecurity.......
8. May I offer a compromise for your consideration?
JB ,   SoCal, USA   (09.29.10)
A compromise somewhere between bombing and outright ignoring or shunning the Little Beady-eyed Monkey from Tehran? Pick the right time & place for a screaming, very low-level, full afterburners, deafening F-16 flyover by 3 or 4 of the fellas . . . just to let 'em know who's boss. Should only take a few seconds. Give the Hiz-sissies something to think about and maybe even cause them to soil their pants. [ I think IDF flyboys already did this some months back -- maybe a year ago -- over the palace of The Chinless Wonder there in Damascus. ]
9. Assad asks Ahmadinejad to..
DT ,   TA Israel   (09.29.10)
tone down the rhetoric. Now the Israeli Left and the rest of the World ,especially the US, will say "Assad is a partner for peace and Israel must negotiate ". The dumb get dumber.
10. ASSAD AND HIS BUDDY ARE
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (09.29.10)
Nervous .They may finally realize that their bellicose actions may have unintended consequences.
11. Assad remember Ahmadinejad pays your bills
zionist forever   (09.29.10)
Ahmadinejad wants to go to Lebanon and throw a stone at Israel and Assad should not try and deprive him of that pleasure.
12. Does he really have to.........
Ram ,   London   (09.29.10)
come to Lebanon for the Israelis to sort him out? Besides, he is only a puppet; it is the puppeteers that could do with sorting out. The whole lot! Me thinks this is an interesting year :-).
13. ahmadinejad
edy burak ,   miami , fl   (09.29.10)
why not a nice low altitude F16 broken sound flights ?
14. SUCH STUPIDITY
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   SAFED ISRAEL   (09.29.10)
Why pick a fight with Israel ? why not just live their lives in peace ?
15. Sans taqqiya-speak, the chineless Assad...
Adina Kutnicki ,   Israel   (09.29.10)
and his Iranian Hitler counterpart are reacting to Stuxnet, shivering in their sandals at what the all powerful, 'Zionist entity' can do. In fact, while they have attributed the need for our destruction due to our world manipulating powers, they are now faced with a faceless worm, capable of bringing down their regimes.How delicious, how malicious.... Me thinks baby Assad is terrified that a Stuxnet is aiming for Damascus. Well, why the hell not? IF A'jad and Assad fall, so too will Nasrallah. Get busy IDF cyber jocks!!
16. Report sounds so unbelievable...
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (09.29.10)
as to be preposterous.
17. To: JB at No. 8
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.29.10)
I like it! Just a gentle tap on the shoulder to remind everyone who's in charge!
18. To: Noodles at No. 16
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.29.10)
Maybe not so much. Israel field-tested the Stuxnet worm on the Syrians when the IAF blew past Syria's early-warning radar systems and anti-aircraft batteries when they turned Assad's nuclear dreams into dust. The last thing on earth Syria wants to do now is raise Israel's hackles. This dog can bite, and Syria knows it all too well.
19. #18. No need to get carried away
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (09.29.10)
After all - we are only talking about Ahmadinejad throwing a stone! Chances are hell miss!
20. 1
zionist forever   (09.29.10)
A better idea would be to infect Syrias systems with the Stuxnet computer virus. That will annoy the hell out of Assad. He can shoot at jets & tanks, he has new anti ship missiles and non of it is any good against a computer virus. Instead of being an arab hero like his father was considered to be all he can do is sit back and shout and scream as his computer systems are infected. As he has no cyber warfare capabilities he can't even fight back which will be a humiliation to him. The Stunxnet virus is the modern day military victory and there wasn't a single Israeli casualty.
21. It seems many here think Israel should use military edge now
Bloodyscot ,   Dallas, Texas   (09.29.10)
While they still have it. Israel's main military edge is air power and threat of nukes, while it has a lot of good tanks, they are limited without air control and better trained troops also have limits against numbers if generals are not too stupid. Many Arab/Muslim countries are now less willing to buy older second rate air craft or limited defense systems. Russia, China or even EU could quickly change the playing field in ME in the arms race that seems to be coming over next 10 to 15yrs. Iran and India are also wild card in many way since both are working hard to build their own cutting edge weapons with outside help.
22. If A-jad shows up to the border and throws stones
AlexB ,   Toronto, Canada   (09.29.10)
the IDF should drop a rotten head on his face from a drone. Or shoot him in the face with a paintball gun.
23. #21 Bloodyscot
Hal ,   Usa   (09.29.10)
You seem to be fighting the last war. Air superiority is not confined to supporting tanks alone. As far as numbers, there are a variety of non-nuclear weapons that can incinerate concentrations of forces. In the next Lebanese tango, the IDF will do what it must and let G-d sort it out later. The only way to defeat your enemy is to do it in an "all out" manner. The Hezbonians have no idea what is in store for them! BTW, do you think Israel will have the same weapons in 10 to15 years?
24. israelis cant's fight without weapons (nature)

26. To #19 - Good one! (end)
MIke ,   Mpls, USA   (09.29.10)
27. Read carefully folks, Assad's not worried about Israel
Jacob Blues ,   New York City   (09.29.10)
"According to the report, the Syrian leader asked the Iranian counterpart why he wanted to visit the region, in light of the exchange of diplomatic messages between the two countries. The Iranian president explained that the visit was important due to the strategic significance of the Marjayoun area, adding that he viewed the entire area as Iran's border with Israel. " Hizballah is far from the all-powerful resistance organization its PR department tries to make it out to be. The reality is, Lebanon is still a nasty stew of ethnic and tribal rivalries and Hizballah's opponents are still armed. A claim that Lebanon, rather than being an independent nation on its own, is not even just subservient to its Syrian neighbor, but the border of the Iranian empire, is sure to royally tick off the non-Shia locals, but good. Remember, this is coming on top of the latest charge that Hizballah killed Rafik Hariri. Payback is a b*tch, and the Iranian dinner jacket could well find himself as the catalyst to another Lebanese civil war while still on the ground.
28. To: No. 24
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.29.10)
Do you mean to suggest that Saudi Arabia can fight without weapons? In that case, shouldn't they cancel the $60 billion weapons deal with the United States?
29. # 24
Arabia ,   Air/wind aginst   (09.29.10)
israelis habitual jealousy, betrayer of written agreements (nature), and hatred when were in Arabia - couldn't fight with the sword and were driven out. Weapons is the true god of israel, israelis loves live no matter how humiliating its. The royal family has to pay to usa in a way or another. The day will come for the fight with stones, hands, legs and what ever. (wind)
