Much more loose talk like that, and Aleppo is Israel's new northern border. It won't take long -- about half an hour.

What is happening in the Arab world is not the harbinger of progress and democracy. It is the opposite. Artificial Arab states, randomly created after the retreat of the imperial powers who formerly governed the Arab world, are unravelling. They are dissolving into tribal fiefdoms. All the lies and rhetoric in the world can't hide this fact. Chaos is descending on the Arab world. In many ways, this situation offers Israel great opportunities.

so was our response.

because Zionism is the manifestation of the human right of Jews to self-determination....and we will never give up our human rights, ever.

Assad, will you be handing them their $600 million in bribe before they head to the border with Israel or after they return?

Instead of focusing energies on these illegals rushing the border fence, the IDF should respond at the Palace in Damascus. Since Assad is using these lemmings against Israel and to deflect his own war crimes, the answer must be directed to him. He'll get the message and the Syrian army will again keep the border quiet.

My thoughts exactly!

How typical is it for the Arabs to fallback on the use of human shields. Because that is what they propose. Instead of war! They hope to put Israel in the unenviable position to shoot scantily armed crowds that will include woman, kids, senior citizens and the like. The world should cry out in disgust for this devious tactic. But it is the Main Stream Media that;s partly at fault. Along with the politically correct countries. Look at the sequence of events. First, the Syria, Lebanon and others let crowds rush the Israeli borders(Nakbe day), this caught Israel off guard. Sensing a weakness and encouraged by press reports that seemed to partly blame Israel at least to some extent. Then the Arabs immediately planned another (second) staged gathering(Naksa day). They put out false press reports that the march was off, hoping to catch Israel off guard again, but it failed. This time the crowds threw firebombs inadvertently setting off the landmines which led to most of those killed and injured. Again the press rewarded this bizarre use of human shields, by asking "both" sides to restrain themselves. This false moral equivalency (where none exists) was seen as more weakness by the West. So now we have part 3, they (the Arabs) want thousands of human shields, maybe 100's of thousands. The world should protest this sick use of human shields. Or expect this to become the norm. No country should have to stand by and have there borders attacked and not be able to fire a shot for fear of being called brutal. The very idea is sick. Israel will do what it must to defend it's borders, regardless.
