1. Israel is attacked and they are calling a meeting ove the "i
rachel ,   usa   (08.20.11)
"Israeli airstrikes"? what a joke . This is just a smoke screen to cover up the real arab war crimes .....who do they think they are kidding ?NO Isreael will not be your scapegoatgoat!!!!!
2. arab league
(08.20.11)
where is your emergency meeting on syria????? we are still waiting. abbas, have you said anything about the brothers, the palestinians, shelled and killed in the syrian palestinian refugee camp? no? wonder why?
3. PROOF POSITIVE
Mark from Georgia ,   USA   (08.20.11)
After one day we have all the Arab groups calling for emergency sessions about Gaza. These same groups said nothing for months about Libya, Syria (in the 5th month of riots), Bahrain, Yemen, Sudan (20 - 30 thousand starved to death by Muslims in 3 months according to the UN) etc., the double standard is laughable. Only when Israel responds to an attack on a passenger bus do they suddenly care about "human rights". Who is buying this nonsense? All this should be ignored. That way you send the correct message, which is, the world is fed up with the Arabs and Muslims, and their constant terrorism. That their attempts to demonize Israel will not work. Give full support to Israel, state nothing will be done to stop Israel. To the contrary, Israel will be given full support to whatever Israel deems proper for the self defense of Israel. Then you will have peace, rather quickly. Remember until the world united against the pirates, that's when they were defeated.
4. Useless Arab League cannot do anything in Arab countries but
Marco ,   Spain   (08.20.11)
jumps on Israel on every opportunity of the slightest perceived harm to one Arab.
5. Silly me. I thought meeting called to discuss Syria.I
Cynic ,   USA   (08.20.11)
It is so ridiculously pathetic when everyone knows that Syria has butchered 3000 people and Hizballah is a member state of the UN
6. I wonder if they will blame Israel ?
Marcel ,   Florida   (08.20.11)
Will the league of internecine Arabs blame Israel for the Islamic jihad attack against Israeli civilians that started all of this ? Sure they will because that's the only thing that unites this bunch. Israel needs to stop relying on the West and start looking up (HaShem) because that is where her real strength is !
7. Arab League meeting?
Issy Hass ,   Ra'anana-Israel   (08.20.11)
it is beyond belief that the Arab League iscalling for an emergency meeting ove Gaza,not Syria,not Libya where hundreds are butchered. what a double standard League Issy
8. Well, there's the first mistake of the Arab League..
William ,   Israel   (08.20.11)
"Mahmoud Abdel Aziz said that "The Arab League received a request from the Palestinian stateā€¦" There is no such thing as a "Palestinian State".
9. USELESS ARAB LEAGUE NONSENSE
Brant ,   Hilton Head USA   (08.20.11)
The pattern repeats. The Arabs (Palestinians) start a fight by killing some Israelis (not in a militay battle but by launching anti-tank missiles at buses full of ordinary people, These are of course "Brave" acts of the "resistance" against "IsarBazi" "War Crimes". The Israelis retaliate. They don't start the fight. But, they do fight back. This sends the Arab world into a frenzy. It;s another opportunity to skewer the Jews at the UN. It;'s a oasttime; a hobby. The Palestinian President of What? is silent as his people kill the Jews. The Security Council which has yet to ever let Israel have a temporary seat is hijacked by Lebanon which refuses to hear a condemnation of the Palestinian aggression supported by the Europeans and the US. It wants "balance". Well now it's got it!! Israel retaliates and the Arab League calls meetings; the Palestinian President of Nothing demands a resolution condemning Israel for what the NY Times will call (if it hasn't already) "disproportionate force". The Egyptians, screwed up beyond reason by the Arab Springboard to Chaos recall their Ambassador to israel instead of keeping Palestinian killers out of Sinai. And the Arab League will, as it has uselessly done for 63 years, bleat and bleat and bleat and will, as it has done for 63 years, once again accomplish nothing for its people or the "Palestinians". All this Arab lunacy will force the US into a Veto; the French to scrambling to try (and they will fail as they always do) to insist on an impossible middle course and Lady Catherine Ashton to stare at the cameras as a deer in the headlights, all the while being intellectually unable to comprehend that there is no unified people or entity called Palestine; only an Arab world that remains unable to accept what happened in 1948 and willing , not to compromise but only to delegitimize and destroy.
10. Arab league should be delcared by all non-arabs countries
jorge ,   Israel/USA/Argentina   (08.20.11)
As a terrorist entity without any power in the UN. All members should be expelled
11. Hope Hamas got paid well by Assad.
Danny   (08.20.11)
12. The Arab League is nothing but
Maxime ,   ISRAEL / USA   (08.20.11)
A bunch of rats!, maggots!, slimy sneaks!, filthy pigs!, people with camel shit for brains. They suck blood!, they lie! and they steal!. They are warmongers and natural born killers. time to purge our planet from the rotten arab scum!!!.
13. Why are we killing civilians and children in Gaza?
YOAV ,   TEL AVIV   (08.20.11)
Are we blind, or the love of revenge. What happened to our morals and true Judaism? I belive we've lost it all.....
14. Egypt israel border
Harolde Azouylay ,   montreal, canada   (08.20.11)
Israel is now building a fence on that border which is the only land passage between asia & africa.What happens to the wild animals that are trying to transverse that area.Can a special corrider be made for these animals.
15. #13 yoav-you are a shame to the jewish nation!
mira ,   israel   (08.20.11)
16. Arab League
Steve ,   USA   (08.20.11)
Ah yes! Well since the the last meeting of the Arab League (Supreme Counsel) the Lower Supreme Counsel or the Ass End has met several times to discuss what the Supreme Counsel will discuss at the upcoming meeting of Both Counsel's of the Arab League. It seems though that an emergency meeting was called by the Philistines to condemn Israel. ...The Author notes that this is a 'pot luck' event so each member (Supreme or Ass End) must bring their own humus and pita since this is Ramadan and no caterers are available. The lower end of the Supreme Counsel of the Arab League will meet to discuss this grave situation (no caterers and that they must 'bring their own')...further update when available..
17. For security reasons and.....
Jerry ,   The Netherlands   (08.20.11)
to create true physical/psychological (limitation of Islamism/Jihadism) BALANCE and FREEDOM in the ME and wider world (giving Islam as a co-existent religion as opposed to a totalitarian ideology a chance) there really is only one (diplomatic and military) option left, a BIG ISRAEL. That should be the goal of the Arab Spring, instead of opening the backdoor or even "democratic" frontdoor for more totalitarian Islamist/Jihadist forces. That should be the goal of all leaders of good-will worldwide (from "left" to "right", "at random" from Norway to Turkey, from the EU to the USA, from Moscow to Bejing, from Australia to Canada, from Venezuala to South-Africa). Looks like a long climb up-hill. The only way to achieve this goal is via ONENESS IN ISRAEL to start off with.
18. The Arab (Against Israel) League.
Nora Tel Aviv   (08.20.11)
The Arab (Against Israel) League`s sole purpose is anti-Israelism, no more no less.
19. #13 Hey YO! your post number 13
Maxime ,   ISRAEL / USA   (08.20.11)
should be a message to you. Get the hell out of Israel and get lost!. You are a the enemy from within.
20. to nr. 13.
sjoerd ruurd van der ,   mankind-citizenship.   (08.22.11)
