To the arabs that comment, were you crying as well in 2006 when IDF entered Gaza? You better keep your self behind closed doors so you won't cry again as the rest of "pussy cat solidiars" came and cleaned the city.
4. #1, did you say pussy cat soldiers?
Eyal ,   USA ISRAEL   (10.24.10)
Is that why Israel belongs to the Jews and you are in scambag Gaza hiding behind your children, mm, very funny. If Israel are pussy cats, you must be pussy mouses.
5. Universalize training
Merca ,   Barcelona.SPAIN   (10.24.10)
It's a norm in many armies avoiding close combat.In order of doing so,they use means at their disposal.The hezbollah terrorist use rockets,IED'S...IDF use planes,copters,.... The matter I don't understand is why IDF gives a hard training only to the so called elite units(Egoz,Golani,Givati...)that didn't win in the second Lebanon war.Maybe,and,in spite of the economic cost,it will well worth giving a hard training to much more units in the IDF.
6. To #2 salma
Jose Farias ,   Sao Paulo - Brasil   (10.24.10)
May be hezbollah has some rockets (I don't believe - you mean fireworks?), but certainly they don't have courage ( I believe).

Lokk at their conventions on TV , How many do you see ...ZERO . The only thig they would take you for is to becoma a shahid

9. You are so clueless
Eyal ,   USA ISRAEL   (10.24.10)
In the next Hezbolah war, Lebanon and you will be over. There won't be another war and there won't be any Palestinian left in Israel BH.
10. To #1 &~#2
Patrick   (10.24.10)
As usual you are talkative - there are still palestinians because contrary to you we are not illerate barbarians. Mighty Egoz golani soldiers, protected by Hachem will crush to death the enemies of Israel. Amen!
11. to salma
anti hesbolah ,   philippines   (10.24.10)
yes hesbolah didn't sleep because they feared of being attack by IDF, use your weapon and your weapon will kill you idiots.
12. #5 its not just the cost
Omri ,   Israel   (10.24.10)
When you have every man in the country as a soldier you get a lot of people that just can't take too big a training both by physical reasons and mental. The money also doesn't grow in trees, I mean you can't spend all the state money on training so you spend it wisely on the training that will give the best fruit.
13. Dear Salma
Hertzel ,   Tveria   (10.24.10)
My dear, you name is probably Salim. you are probably an arab man, hiding behind a woman's name, what's new? Your Hizziz fight and hide among their "civilian" population since it is a win win situation for them, 1-the IDF is the most moral army in the world )they kinow it and take advantage of that fact) when IDF goes after them, they wear civilian clothes, they get killed, Israel goes to the UN alter. Cowards Hizziz !
14. the next war - "winning" ?
eporue ,   europe   (10.24.10)
nobody will "win"... (any territory)... doesnt work anymore... but we still can count the death, wounded, missing people, watch videos of rocket hits on youtube, see pictures of destroyed places... wars are "celebrations" for perverts on their tv screens... salma is waiting, to watch people dying - live and in color ?
15. Arabs are right, Hezbollah is more powerful then IDF...
Yerushalmi ,   Jerusalem   (10.24.10)
...so, IDF has a right to use any means at its disposal to protect the Israeli civilians against the powerful Hezbollah armada. So, please, no complaints of excessive use of force next time :-p Arabs are always barking before the fight, and begging for mercy and crying like women after it. Jews are always quiet, before and after. We don't like to threaten, and after we do what we do, we don't brag. We have big enough penises that we don't need it.
16. IDF is the Best Army in the Middle East
W. ,   Beirut, Lebanon   (10.24.10)
Back in 2006, and for some unknown reason, Israel didn't launch an extensive ground invasion to uproot the terror organization called Hizbollah. Then, IDF's code of operation focused on aerial bombing of suspected Hizb centers and locations, and limited ground incursions that yielded little. By the end of the 2nd Lebanon War, Nasrallah appeared from his burrough to claim victory. However, now, things are different since IDF will invade Lebanon to destroy the backbone of the terror organization, swiftly, as we can see from the ongoing maneuvers since 2006. However, IDF should withdraw after breaking Hizb's infrastructure, immediately to a security zone in South Lebanon while other Lebanese factions fill in the vacuum, or total chaos. This is Hizbollah's worst nightmare. God bless IDF and SLA
17. Self congratulating Israelis
Avi ,   NYC, NY   (10.24.10)
I served in the IDF, and although it has some well trained units the level of the average soldier is pretty low, professionally and as a person. One advantage that the IDF has, and no one can deny it, is its extreme flexibility: It is the only army in the world that can tap itself on both shoulders at the same time...
18. Avi #17
Meir ,   Toronto Canada   (10.25.10)
Avi, you are in New York where you belong.
19. Salma your people kill each other in Baghdad
(10.25.10)
20. #17
Avigdor ,   Tel Aviv, Israel   (11.18.10)
Its just that Israelis are less desperate now. Its no longer an existential battle or that what most Israelis wrongly believe
