31. Poor Brainwashed Egyptians
Veal Cutlet ,   Chicago, IL   (08.24.11)
Brainwashing an entire population for decades under Mubaryk via the school curriculum and the government controlled Press has produced an entire population of Israel haters and Jew haters so that they can't (won't) believe the truth about the actions of Israel when it's put before them on a silver platter. The IDF can present pictures till kingdom comes and they'll still say the Israelis are the evil bad guys.
32. Egyptians and Turks spit on the ground and want Israel to ..
jewbie ,   NYC, USA   (08.24.11)
Egyptians' and Turkeys' BULLIES spit on the ground and demand and threaten Israel to LICK IT UP...nope! SORRY, NO apologies are EVER NEEDED WHEN PROTECTING JEWISH LIVES. As far as the TURKEYS and the Egyptian Brotherhood is concerned, NO apologies, NO COMPENSATION OR reimbursements, NO Qualms...Israel ..WILL hit back harder, faster, with NO apologies NEEDED WHEN PROTECTING JEWISH LIVES. IT'S Israel WHO MUST demand after every "ARAB PERPETRATED affair and incident" A "PUBLIC" APOLOGY FOR ANY ATTACK ON ISRAEL OR ISRAELI'S...NO EXCEPTION...THIS WEEK ALONE HAMASS OWES ISRAEL OVER 100 APOLOGIES...and it should be used as a reason to NOT pay them their tax money until they sing like fat pigs. pay up!
33. So nu already
Edward Plum ,   Sacramento USA   (08.24.11)
When will Israel FINALLY take off the kid gloves and go on a MAJOR offensive in the name of survival? When will Israel make these Arabs understand they are faced with utter destruction if they continue provocations and murder? WHEN? If Bibi's replaced by Mickey Mouse, it'll be an improvement.
34. 14 - Any UN investigation would be a foregone conclusion
Emma ,   London   (08.24.11)
They would blame Israel regardless of the facts. There is a Muslim majority and Israel will never get a fair hearing. No matter what the facts, you and the UN would never believe Israel.

Try reading history books written by someone other than Alan Dershuitz. Might I suggest Benny Morris . Start by googling " countdown to Arab defeat " and read in Moshe Dyan's own words who really started tha 6 war
36. THE TRUTH HURTS
Mark from Georgia ,   USA   (08.24.11)
Maybe it helps if you can read, as the article states: "The evidence shows that contrary to Egyptian media reports" "the information was submitted to Egypt's Supreme Council of the Armed Forces" "Videos shot from the aircraft (IDF aircraft) show that the troops intentionally diverted fire from the Egyptian all-terrain vehicles " WHOOPS!!!!! More video proof the Israel was innocent of all charges. What's sad, is that morons like you, and of course the laughable, gullible and easy to manipulate Egyptian public fell for another Pallywood staged and fabricated story. The Palestinian (PRC) planned attack killed the Egyptian soldiers while trying to escape from the killing of innocent civilians. Now we see that Hamas affiliated groups just attacked an Egyptian town from Gaza, with rocket attacks. So I guess the question is: Will we see the Egyptian public now armed with the truth, run out and burn the Palestinian flag? After all the Pals killed 5 Egyptian soldiers, and just committed a rocket attack on Rafah in Egypt. Hitting a civilian Egyptian women in the town? But don't look for any outrage from the brainwashed, ignorant Egyptian. To stupid to know who their real enemy is, and it isn't Israel, is it? Since it's Palestinians killing their soldiers and bombing the Egyptian towns.
37. ..but, but, but Israel appologized!

38. Israel must demand an APOLOGY from EGYPT
Michelle ,   Netanya   (08.24.11)
The terrorists are continually demanding Israel apologise when the Israeli army responds to Arab terrorist attacks. Once again the Arabs have been caught in their own LIE. Where is the reciprocatory apology from Egypt to Israel?????
39. #14: UN is blatantly anti-Israel, Pro-Arab oil
Thandi ,   ZIMBABWE   (08.24.11)
The UN, like Switzerland, has long since lost it's status of neutrality. Not in the past 60 years has the UN supported any defensive action by Israel.
40. Number 35
Emma ,   London   (08.24.11)
I remember the prequel to the 6 Day War when Nasser, as Egyptian Minister of Uncontrollable Rage, was ranting and raving and saying he was going to push Israel into the sea. He asked the UN to withdraw the peace keeping troops which surprise, surprise, they did very quickly. He closed the Straits of Tiran all acts of war. Naughty Israel carried out a pre-emptive strike rather than sit and wait to be destroyed, not very fair I know but hey, shucks. And if you bother to read, Benny Morris has recanted on his original historical position so I wouldn't take what he says too seriously.
41. This is not the first time either
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (08.24.11)
This is just the latest one from a long list of EGYPTIAN terrorist attacks upon Israel. They have attacked us and we usually do nothing about their attacks.
42. Millions of Egyptians continue to hate us......
Nora Tel Aviv   (08.24.11)
......with or without reason. With or without proof on what really happened.
43. Emma #34
daze ,   US   (08.24.11)
The un, egypt, turkey, Jew haters, and all the rest of the muslims know the truth. They can't admit it. That would show up their claims and accusations against Jews and israel for the lies that they are- that would end their fun
44. #14 either did not read the article
John ,   Alaska   (08.24.11)
or is calling YNet's article a lie. The article says: "The IDF did everything in its power to prevent Egyptian troops from getting hurt in last Thursday's multiple terror attacks near Eilat, inquiries conducted by both the IDF and the Egyptian army showed."
45. #38
Dino Domingo ,   Vancouver, Canada   (08.24.11)
whats an apology going to do? Israeli citizens dont need an apology, they need peace, security and the ability to live life without threat! dont trust people you know dont have good intentions and dont expect them to change their ways...i say protect yourselves at all cost and do what you have to in order to provide safety to all Israeli citizens!
46. Two things
John ,   Alaska   (08.24.11)
First: You caught Egypt in a lie and didn't say anything because you didn't want to embarrass an Egypt that was saying your apology wasn't good enough. Had they used this incident to end diplomatic relations, what good would the truth you had hidden be then? Second: If the Muslims are going to accuse you of evil and - as the trolls on this set of talkbacks show - not believe the truth, why do you even bother to communicate with them?
47. Can new waterway similar to Suez Canal be built
leo ,   usa   (08.24.11)
along Israel's Southern border? It serve not only as alternative to Suez Canal, but also as relatively secure border, more secure than any fence. If I am not mistaking it will only be 40-50 kilometers longer than Suez Canal.
48. One Belonged To Muslim Brotherhood?
David ,   NJUSA   (08.24.11)
Get rid of Tal Russo he is a proven danger to Israel.
49. #7 David u r a nobody, so u can't DEMAND...

50. #11 SALMA
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (08.25.11)
Barak apologized too soon, he didn’t wait for all the details, haste makes waste, and now we've found out Egypt was involved Everyone makes a mistake, Barak did, so did your father, he neglected to use Prophylactics as a precaution BTW- I am eagerly waiting your answering the few questions I had posed, is it that you’re some trouble thinking up the appropriate lies?
51. To EdwardPlum:500 Megaton Says It All
Noah Lev ,   HollywoodUSA   (08.25.11)
To Edward Plum: Its obvious that the Arabs/Muslim world is waiting for a major Israeli mistake, or the most opportune chance to launch their final Jihad against Israel.Simply put, for 100 years, they have wanted the area Judenrein or Jufrei. (Use the German language). Israel gave the Sinai back 3 times..yet the Arabs have short memories, AFTER they have rearmed and are ready for another go around. Its so plain..except for Israeli leaders..who still live in states of denial and blame (themselves) a la Livni. The Arabs want Israel a Muslim state..from Med. to the Jordan. It is not about settlements, never was. They want to spread the caliphate, and Israel is now their focus. The Muslim Brotherhood will take over Egypt/Syria/ Libya,, like Hez did with Lebanon. What can Israel do: Well for starters, it has 500 1megaton bombs..neutron, cobalt and lithium. Do I believe in collective punishment, you bet. better them than us.
52. #51
Dino Domingo ,   Vancouver, Canada   (08.25.11)
i am not a specialist in the ME history and i'm not certain of all your facts but one thing i do agree with you on is the muslim bro's are definitely plotting...and so Israel should use every bit of force it has...i hope the rest of the world will in some way also help. as i have stated many times before on this site...i am a croatian/canadian and although many many many times i disagree with Israeli/Jewish policis and certain arguments...i support Israels right not only to exist...but to have health, security, freedom, normal life and rid themselves or these no good parasites and jihadist mentality muslims!
53. Thomas, he is (sjoerd ruurd)
fg   (08.25.11)
just a pathetic, frustrated Dutchman who i living in his delirium, hallucinations and delusions. Nobody on erarth takes this clown seriously, not even his fellow Dutch. Keep in mind next time this little ant posts something.
54. #11 salma
lynda   (08.25.11)
Only great people and countries say "sorry" I see no Israeli taking down the Egypt flag!! We have respect for life and are sorry when people die. And then there are people who will never say sorry and don't even care if their own people die, so what can we say? Sorry you are from a people who cannot say "sorry" Sorry! oeps, did it again. :)
55. G-d behaves in mysterious way to bless Israel
observer ,   Egypt   (08.25.11)
One killed Egyptian officer had a bullet entering his shoulder and exiting upper thigh. That couldn't have been except from air-to-ground shooting. Who has the war airplane facilities; Israel or the Sinai MFO? Objective and fair investigation, Heh.
56. Israel struck Gaza without being sure that Gazans attacked
observer ,   Egypt   (08.25.11)
57. what is an initial investigation?
observer ,   Egypt   (08.25.11)
a test balloon to see if it can factually deceive or else change it, ISRAWOOD.
58. was there Israel-Egypt security arrangement at border
observer ,   Egypt   (08.25.11)
Egypt's officers complained that the wireless communication with IDF was cut from the Israeli side. It appeared that the Israeli from the beginning was sure that those Egypt's soldiers were involved in the attack. Why no joint investigation with the Egyptian side was held? DELIBERATE.
59. if Israel doesn't answer Egypt's demand of joint investigati
observer ,   Egypt   (08.25.11)
Egypt's ambassador will be recalled"; a high-caliber official declared.
60. Egyptian
Alexa ,   Israel   (08.25.11)
all the egyptian hewe calin that this was not the first rime we killed their soldeir . you probably talik about Ras burka massacare. 1985 an Egyptian slodier killed 7 Israelis among them 4 children who were on vacation in Sanai.
