Israel   (12.16.10)
2. Bottom line
Palestinian   (12.16.10)
"The bottom line is, we faced everything that could happen on the Lebanon side," Well, I don't think so dude...
3.  'Next war, we'll do better' ! Ha!
Salma ,   Palestine   (12.16.10)
Don't be so sure : )
4. All will be OK as long as Peretz/ Olmert R not our Generals!

Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (12.16.10)
Yes,what a mistake it was to make Amir Peretz Defence Minister. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
6. #3
Ben ,   USA   (12.16.10)
I really dont think that the middle East has seen all that Israel can do. Watch out when the USA takes the handcuffs off!!!
7. The Palestinians and Lebanese have so much in common
Brian Cohen ,   Judean Peoples Front   (12.16.10)
The Lebanese are willing to fight to the last Palestinian. The Palestinians are willing to fight to the last Lebanese. Little do either appreciate the gravity of the fact that the Iranians are willing to fight to the last Lebanese and Palestinian. The Syrians appear to be somewhat smarter and have kept their noses clean with Israel since their own occupation of Lebanon was hampered by the forced removal of their military occupation machine.
8. #3 - Hezbullah didn't capture one meter of Israeli soil!
michael redbourn ,   Arad Israel   (12.16.10)
What was Hezbulla's supposed victory? Israel was fighting an enemy that hid in mosques and in people's houses and in hospitals and ambulances. Israel fought with one arm behind its back, but due to the present makeup of Lebanon's government, Israel will feel free to destroy Lebanon's infrastructure next time, which is something that it avoided doing last time but can be done in an hour or less. Hezullah didn't occupy any Israeli land so what was so wonderful? Michael

Shmuel ,   USA   (12.16.10)
You were not at the drill, so you don't know what happened there. What you think is not important; the IDF officer is believable, unlike you.

My oh my, how Tarzanic the brave Israelites! Your machismo is so ignorant.
12. :: Training?
Matty Groves ,   Fairport   (12.16.10)
"IDF finishes intensive training event in preparation for possible war with Lebanon" How much "training" do you need to retreat back to Israel?!
13. If Israel falls so will andalucia!
(12.16.10)
14. Best anti-tank defence, put Quran around your tank
Best Anti-tank syste   (12.17.10)
see if Hizballah will fire anti-tank missile against the Quran. If they do film it and put it on You Tube.
15. Training to Matty
JUDAH THE LION   (12.17.10)
In the next war,do not scream and attend in demonstration against Israel, accusing Israel using EXCESSIVE FORCE.Next war will be different. I will remind you
16. 13
TAHRIR QUDS ALYAHUDI   (12.17.10)
Israel will never falls because our FATHER IN HEAVEN will protect his nation from these animals.
17. Salma
JUDAH THE LION   (12.17.10)
In the next war we do not want you to complain what the IDF/IAF will do to your cowards brothers who hid in between the legs of women.I would like them to face the IDF in the battlefield
18. #3 Salma....You'll do better in the next war...
RichInBoston ,   Boston USA   (12.17.10)
and Israel will capture more land. According to Muslim history books, there hasn't ever been a war lost to Israel or the Jews. The IDF extract 4 BILLION dollars out of Lebanon's infrastructure in exchange for the Hizbulah cross boarder attack. That money could have fed a lot of hungry Lebanese people. Idiot.
19. no more!
fitsum ,   israel   (12.17.10)
yea ash to ash,dust to dust you cowrds! no place to hide u Idiots! extrimists../no string attached/ we will whipe u out of the face of earth..just start it and hide in the mosque!..i am missing that day!
20. to 17
Miri ,   Panama   (12.17.10)
Thats one of the few things they know how to do well.. cry and whine. and there are the rest which they have also mastered, hide between kids and woman, blow themselves, and polute the world. Sorry Selma and Nour if it offends you, truth usually does.
21. Salma Salami is not worth any attention
Amit ,   United States   (12.17.10)
She cant get the quote right, and her sign off is from a place that doesn't exist, but rather begs others for recognition cause it cant win alone!
22. #3
Daniel ,   USA   (12.17.10)
What was so "wonderful" about Hezballah's performance during the 2nd Lebanon War was that on the last day of the war they were still firing HUNDREDS of rockets into Israel despite every effort to stop them. Remember, Israel is a STATE Army that has billions of dollars of funding. Hezballah is just a rag-tag group of villagers that fought them to a stand-still. This was nothing short of Amazing.
23. as long as Barak is DM,israel will never win a war
chaim.s ,   brooklyn ny   (12.17.10)
as long as this pathetic self hating leftist coward is defence minister,Israel has no chace of winning a war
24. god bless the IDF
mark ,   new york   (12.17.10)
25. #3: Don't wish for any war
Israeli 2   (12.17.10)
War brings nothing but misery to both sides. Pray for peace...not Jihad. Wars as you know are not won by the might of the sword, but by the spirit of the people.
26. how sad, the lebanese people picked
Barney ,   USA   (12.17.10)
the wrong side and the only answer is total annihilation as desired by the persian terrorists
27. 17-IDF will defend Europe and Saudi Arabia.
(12.17.10)
28. GOD BLESS - !!!.
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (12.17.10)
BUT TAKE SYRIA INTO ACCOUNT AS WELL !!!. Arn.
29. Hez on Motorcycles..Hows About Popeyes?
Dav Lev ,   Burbank.CAUSA   (12.17.10)
All of Lebanon must be made a target for massive Israeli army activities.Why limit it to the mountainous country bordering northern Israel? The best offense with the Arabs is a good offense. No more defensive maneivers in response to minor Hez attacks or captures. Bridges, military camps, ammunition depots, seaports, chemical plants, major infrastructure assets, ALL known Hez locations...and everything south of the Litani River..must be made into a sheet of glass. Israel has the power, but is still talking about using tanks...shooting at Hez motocyclists. This must be a massive attack, using every aircraft avaiable..and Popeyes and Jerichos. To Israel; show no sympathy.
30. Gaza : Small potatoes
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (12.17.10)
Lebanon : bigger potatoes Syria : fairly nice sized potatoes Iran : big potatoes All bound for the oven to be well done.
