1. Hamas threats
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.25.10)
Yes, I realize they are empty threats, however, they have been made. These are existential threats, and Israel would be fully justified in taking action. Didn't Israel also come under mortar fire from Gaza this morning as well? Let's call that the first shots in Hamas' "war" against Israel. Time to raze Gaza to the ground. No one can say Israel hasn't been provoked or threatened beyond imagining; no one can say that Israel does not have a perfect right to retaliate. For pity's sake, if Gilad Shalit is the only thing stopping us, please understand that he is never coming home anyway; he's Hamas' sole bargaining chip, and they will never, ever give him up. Of course, Iran's great big footprint is all over this, as well as all over the recent threats issued by Hizbollah and by Kuntar. Besides, just think what a wonderful object lesson it would make for Abbas.
2. Jimmy Carter
Dave ,   Boulder, CO USA   (10.25.10)
I'm confused. Didn't Jimmy Carter and the other "Elders" just tell us that Hamas wanted peace?
3. Hamas will take Haifa!
Spencer ,   Israel   (10.25.10)
That's a declaration of war. Hamas is in control of Gaza. So, Israel should preempt these terrorists and take all steps necessary to wip Hamas off the face of the earth. This will be of great benefit to the region, including the moderate Arabs.
4. Perhaps when the Arabs will say they'll reoccupy Tel Aviv
(10.25.10)
the Left government will wake and realize that with Arabs one cannot make a peace deal.
5. good luck. downtown Haifa is 100% already.
Aidan ,   Haifa, Israel   (10.25.10)
6. note the word "OCCUPY"
rebecca ,   Modiin   (10.25.10)
7. #4 Think you got a bit confused dear
Avi ,   Israel   (10.25.10)
Last time i checked the goverment was right wing, you remember BB , Shas and Liberman =- well duh !
8. LOL! That would unite the right & left & good-bye Palestine!
Yaniv ,   Israel   (10.25.10)
9. hamas you are going to lose
eclipse1 ,   australia   (10.25.10)

10. It is this state of mind that prevails among most Muslim-
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (10.25.10)
Arabs that we must keep in mind, and refuse to lower our guards in its its face, even if Barakah Hussein Obama wouldn't like it!!!
11. #2 Dave
David ,   USA/ISRAEL/EGYPT   (10.25.10)
No you are not confuse Carter and that woman from Ireland are the confused ones. I blame the Israeli government for allowing the Hamas dogs to keep barking. Israel had the opportunity to finish with those criminals, but decided to let them keep going with their nonsense and live. Israel was going to be chastise by the rest of the world if they finished the job or not. But the politicians did not want to hand over Gaza to Abbas on a silver platter, hence decided to stop anddid not finish the job. .
12. Maybe obumma could calmly explain the peace process to him,
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (10.25.10)
that would fix everything.
13. Declaration of War
(10.25.10)
14. Nothing more then a Declaration of War!
David   (10.25.10)
15. #7, Jimmy Carter is more "right wing" than Netanyahu
Jake ,   USA   (10.25.10)
In the late 70's Jimmy Carter proposed an autonomous region for the Palestinians living within Israeli borders. Their nation state was to be Jordan. Netanyahu's offer of statehood is far to the left of Jimmy Carter's proposal.
16. Jokers and clowns will take what ??
Joey Rose ,   Portland   (10.25.10)
And my dog will take the car to go buy cigarettes.
17. If you have to dream then why Haifa?
Ilan ,   Ariel   (10.25.10)
They should set their sights on something worth the effort like Dizengoff.
18. we shouldnt even pay attention to these douche bags
pini ,   usreal   (10.25.10)
but ya didnt carter just visit to make things better...man he is such a bag of douche
19. Stupid me...
Norwegian Citizen ,   Oslo, Norway   (10.25.10)
..I've always thought that Universities was a place where people could share knowledge, wisdom and do research - not to promote war and terror. I guess I must be an idiot...
20. I totally agree #1!!
Israeli 2   (10.25.10)
21. I was shown the year 2018!
Israeli 2   (10.25.10)
Israel is in complete control of the entire Middle East. The rats of Hammas are hiding deep and far. Jerusalem is under total Israeli control and somehow part of greater Israel has been realized.
22. Why only Haifa? Rest of Israel feels neglected, no doubt.
leo ,   usa   (10.25.10)
23. Concessions?
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (10.25.10)
Exact what concession have the Arabs ever made? Can anybody name a single one? As for taking anything. The only reason they still exist is because Bibi is a moron.
24. What an idiot
Shalom ,   Ashdod, Israel   (10.25.10)
Israel has been here for the last 62 years so how come they did not do it all this time? While these idiots occupy themselves with empty words and idle threats, Israel continues to build and build and build. Somebody please tell me what did these idiots produce other that Qassam rockets
25. Hamad, you are a joker
Eran ,   Singapore   (10.25.10)
No doubt that Israel should continue the gaza blocade.
26. Yes only when the pope will be Pals prime minister
Roy ,   Miami   (10.25.10)
27. #21
Harry ,   Jerusalem   (10.25.10)
I think it will be earlier, But what is more interesting is their comment "'armies from all around the world.' " These words are the staging step leading to the LAST WAR. This is what the Prophets say, that the World will ascend on Israel.
28. threats are always a sign of wikness
Anna M Sedda ,   Italy   (10.25.10)
and i really do not think they are able to...also is not part of bibble profecy,so sorry for hamas...good try do...they are only looking for attention...terrorist are all the same..
29. with Barak as defence minister,they will succeed
chaim.s ,   brooklyn ny   (10.25.10)
30. Hamas threatens world war against Israel, world yawns
Raymond in DC ,   Washington, USA   (10.25.10)
Hamas is in effect threatening Armageddon. Yet the world continues to insist Hamas must be brought into the peace process. And the Old F*rts (aka the "Elders") will no doubt blame Israel for provocation.
