1. Oh, goodie!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (08.08.11)
Does this mean that the $14 billion arms deal with China is back on the table? Remember? The one that the United States pressured Israel into quashing a few years back? The U.S. is just pissy because China likes Israeli armaments better than American ones. For good reason.
2. #1 Misinformed as usual
Robert ,   Brisbane, Australia   (08.09.11)
It is far more likely that the reverse is the case. Israel is showing its true colours by turning its back on its benefactor over the last 60 years.

5. How many friends has Israel?
Susya Bar Dror ,   IL   (08.09.11)
In the past years Israel managed to loose all friends it ever had. There is none left. This visit is a good chance Israel must not miss.
6. isn't US too busy with credit rating AA+, 15 trillion debts?
mary of Bethany ,   singapore   (08.09.11)
US as benefactor? no more when the Muslim Chief show the bottom of his shoe to BiBi at WH. Dem. is now busy swinging blames at teaparty and republicans, no time to phone BIBi. China loves the jewish brain, China idolized money, China worship anyone that bring her wealth. so at the present, China is good news for Israel. China will not be a true friend forever, only the Evangelicals truly loves the Jewish nation, but China can be useful at the moment to counter-attack Iran and persuade China not to veto any measure against Iran. a phone from WH, oh, no body take WH muslim chief seriously now. at least untill 2012.
7. to #5 you confuse diplomatic ties with
ghostq   (08.09.11)
militery ties, militery Israel didn't lose any friend well except for Turkey, and we all know to where Turkey is going, anyway, just because it is not on the front news, does not mean that diplomatic ties r being stoped completely, wait until SA will come to its senses after continous misery, they will claim they have seen the light.
8. # 7 no confusion
Susya Bar Dror ,   IL   (08.09.11)
our current government made sure Israel lost friends.

(08.09.11)
How has the official policy of any country towards Israel changed over the last 20 years? Ties with Turkey are less extensive but relations with other countries are the same. I really dont get this idea of countries being ''friends''. People have friends. Countries have policies and interests , but not ''friends.''. Turkey will realise eventually that a deeper involvement with Israel is either in its interest or not in its interest. It wont wake up one day feeling bad about having hurt your feelings, and wanting to be ''friends'' again.

11. Nr 1 - Dear Sarah -
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (08.09.11)
Ezekiel 38 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 2"Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, Gog/Japan Magog/China. Joel 2 Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble; for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand-- 2a day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains. A great people and a strong, there hath not been ever the like; Revelation 9 13And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which stands before God, 14saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, "Loose the four angels who are bound in the great river Euphrates." 15And the four angels were loosed, who had been prepared for an hour and a day and a month and a year, to slay a third part of men. 16And the number of the army of horsemen was two hundred thousand thousand, and I heard the number of them. 200 Million soldiers. Arn.Sweden.
12. Nr 5. HASHEM is the only Friend Israel needs !.
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (08.09.11)
Nr 4 is absolutely right. Nr 10. dear ghost you claim to know where turkey going but you dont even know that only jews think that :) Comment - In Ezdras of the Jewish Bible, Babylon(Irak)-Syria - Asia is going to Destruction at the Hand of Gog and Magog(Ezekiel chapter 38). Asia here is the part of todays Turkey, occupied by the Turks stemming from Mongolia. The Kingdom of Askenas/todays Georgia in Kaujasus, was kalled Kaska in the second Century B.C. The People stemming from here was also called - Kassites - hense - Kassi - Asi - Asia. It is a part of Todays Turkey. Bad by Turkey !. Arn.Sweden.
13. Is this signalling somethindg deeper...
Tim ,   Brighton   (08.09.11)
Ahmadinejad has always boasted that China and India would for ever do his bidding because he has oil and potential control of the Arabian Gulf....and they dont And largely that has always muted any China and India response to Irans confrontational behaviour. But with the chance of global mayhem caused by Iran increasing by the day in political circles China is worried very worried....What if the global chaos does result in an irreversible global economic melt down..will it be because China India Brasil and to a lesser extent Russia ALLOWED it to happen despite the rest of the worlds best efforts? And most of all how will they answer that charge to their public?

15. This reminds me of the envoys from the King of Babylon who
Rivkah   (08.09.11)
came to see ancient Judah's assets so they could attack later. President Bill Clinton ordered then Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Jeremy Boorda to allow Red Chinese military into every aspect of U.S. Navy operations. Admiral Boorda refused and was murdered at the Washington Navy Yard home (just outside the house) with four rifle bullet wounds to the chest according to investigative reporter and retired U.S. Army Colonel and retired Oklahoma police detective Craig Roberts (author of Medusa File and other books). That was called a suicide in the media. How can a person shoot themselves a second third and fourth time in the chest, it would hurt so bad after the first time, Roberts asked? Just a little Red Chinese friendly fire by stooges of their main stooge, Bill Clinton who owed campaign debt obligations to them. While Clinton was U.S. President trying to transform the U.S. into a U.S.S.A, (Union of Soviet Socialist America), two Red Chinese Colonels wrote a book called "Unrestricted Warfare" about Red China's war plans against America. The first phase was to hit the World Trade Center towers with Muslim pilots trained by the Red Chinese. The second phase is to disupt American computer systems with hacking. The third phase is to crash the U.S. economy. The fourth phase is nuclear war against America. Such friends one can do without. Mao Tse Tung bragged he could muster an army of 200 million men. Just the size of the army that invades the Middle East in the latter days according to Revelation in the Renewed Covenant to the Covenant of Moses. That army will march to the Middle East. This is just like the spies from Babylon who snookered the King of Judah into showing them his assets. Beware of China. They murdered 70 million of their own people. What do you think they will do to the six + million people of Israel?

I wish YOU knew where Turkey was going... unfortunately you have no clue. Welcome to the Dark Ages.

Obama has no time to make phone calls, except for calls to its Chinese creditors. Obama will play nice-doggy lest the Chinese will sqeeze his treacherous balls and raise his howl by an octave or two. I guess Israel will be doing well to dump its 6B US Bonds to the Chinese before they lose more value as a result of Obama's irresponsible spending spree and pampering of the +200,000 recent Somali immigrants (I guess you didn't know that, did you!), and of trying to finance his arrogant but destructive Health Plan at the expense of the future of the US. Now you, just like each and every US citizen, owe the Chinese $40,000. Better learn Chinese my friend. Your Anti-Semitism won't help you now!

the Chinese and American economies are co-dependent. If the American economy collapsed there would be economic collapse in China and widespread famine. It would be the biggest disaster in Chinese history. You are obviously intelligent, but you read the wrong books.
