Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.11.11)
Israel has (in the past) done a great deal to Egypt. If they don't shape up, we're going to do a great deal more.
32. American thought it elected a Gem in Obama
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (09.11.11)
What they got was a lump of useless Everything he puts his hand to, turn to crap
33. The uneducated mobs created an ACT of WAR by invadint the
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (09.11.11)
Israeli embassy as every embassy is the sovereign territory of that country. The mob can claim they were too stupid to know that, but not the military that was standing guard and did nothing to stop the attack. An egyptian mob attacked Israel, so what is Israel going to do about it?
34. incident was obviously setup by tantawi
bernard ross ,   st anns bay, jamaica   (09.11.11)
35. Egyptian Revenge
Sam ,   New York usa   (09.11.11)
It is quite obvious that Egypt was ready for an eye for an eye retribution. Israel killed Egyptian border guards. Egypt kills Israeli embassy guards. The fact that Israel accidentally killed the Egyptians in a fire fight with terrorists on the Egyptian side of the border means nothing. It is the Arab way...no logic...no justification...just cold blooded cruelty. t
36. Netanyahu endangers Jewish lives.
usa   (09.11.11)
He should of evacuated that dumb embassy weeks ago which serves no purpose and isn't wanted anyway. And stop calling this thing your have with Egypt peace, that sounds dumb. Oh and how did it feeling begging Obama for help?
37. "while wearing keffiyehs and Muslim garments"
Edithann ,   USA   (09.11.11)

39. we can all thank Hussein Obama for replacing Mubarak
chaim.s ,   54st.brooklyn ny   (09.11.11)

40. It's poetic justice that Natanyahu should be begging...
Persian CAT   (09.11.11)
Obama to save his bacon. He dissed Obama like a spoiled brat. Now he's on his knees with his Zionist tail between his legs. I love it.
41. egypt's unreliable military
joel ,   usa   (09.11.11)
this is the result of removing mubarak from egypt's power, someone will pay dearly for this circu,stances and it seemed irreversible since the american people knows whom to blame!
42. #5
joel ,   usa   (09.11.11)
well, israel can bring this matter to UN security council and have egypt punish for not making its peace treaty with israel work, so the egyptians will know who to blamer in their country, ok? the nilitary had supported the "muslim brotherhood" after mubarak step down, ok?

Arab Man   (09.11.11)
....is closed 4 ever
46. no more land for "peace"
mehrdad ,   germany   (09.11.11)
israel gave back sinai to egypt TWICE for peace but it seems it was a big mistake. if egpyt lets terrorists infiltrate israel, burn israeli ambassy and try some kind of cold war against israel sinai will be captured a 3th time and this time it must be a clod day in the hell before israel givs a inch back to egypt. same goes for so called "palestinians". no land for this kind of peace.
47. Thus Were All The Dark Ages Pogroms!
Andrew Square ,   Valencia - Spain   (09.11.11)
We have just seen the essential of the assaults of the masses to the Jewish ghettos during the past 2 milleniums. The inflamed multitudes of hate, the public forces looking iddle at the joyous spectacle, the authorities in unknown whereabouts. That the events of yesterday go on to the history as the first pogrom of the Third Millenium, The Cairo Pogrom, which thanks to the intervention of the president Obama this time has been without victims.
48. Conspiracies
Boogy Man ,   U.S.   (09.11.11)
What a bunch of conspriacy geniouses post on this site. But wait. Is it possible northing was planned except by an ignorant mob, then wait, aren't all mobs ignorant?
49. #20 OBSERVER NEEDS OBSERVATION
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (09.11.11)
Since you are pretending you're in Egypt, you should have given them the appropriate advice The building was happy to rent the space, so many Egyptians live in cemeteries instead of buildings American Embassy is about 8 floors high, I couldn't see the bottom of the photo, what I could see was at least 8 British is at least two Spanish 4 Israel Embassy is like most buildings in the Middle East, is hardly a skyscraper, it appears to have been a private style building that was converted to office useage Not only do you have a severe veracity problem, you're a fool that you think you can fool anyone, the photos are there for anyone to see, you should have looked before you lied Let's just add it to your monumental score of lies you have told Go take some toilet tissue, wipe yourself off, you're so full of crap You may now return to your game of pocket pool
50. thanks to Obama; but realisation that naked concessions...
dante ,   uk   (09.11.11)
concessions without concrete, ironclad, absolute guarantees are not, in this part of the world, worth much. the p.a. has taught hatred and incitement, without surcease, for decades. for the same period, they have encouraged, supported, rewarded terrorists. they are not prepared to accept Israel as a Jewish state. WHAT SENSE DOES IT MAKE TO PUSH ISRAEL TO MAKE CONCRETE CONCESSIONS FOR MERE VERBAL ASSURANCES OF SOME SORT FROM THIS UNSTABLE AND INSTRASIGENT "GOVERNMENT"??? Obama should learn from this.
51. Why do we need to give them thanks?
Yakov   (09.11.11)
It is the RESPONSIBILITY of a host country to help if the security around an embassy starts to get out of hand-which by the way should NEVER have been allowed to happen in the first place. This does not reflect well about the state of order in Egypt.
52. peace?
eli ,   tel aviv   (09.11.11)
53. #46 Arab Man?
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (09.11.11)
All Embassies are nest sof spies, any fool knows that, how come you didn't ?
54. No Jew should go to any muslim state!!!!
JJ ,   uk   (09.11.11)
Why even have embassy,s if they hate us! JUST A WASTE OF MONEY AND ENERGY!!!
55. #36 is absolutely correct.
Kayla ,   Florida   (09.11.11)
56. Jama'a al-Islamiya
Galutia ,   Selah   (09.11.11)
Quote:"debkafile's counter-terror sources reveal that the mob was led by the terrorist Jama'a al-Islamiya, the Egyptian founding branch of Al Qaeda, and two other radical Egyptian Islamist groups" he was involved in 1993 WTC bombing
57. Israel chief of diplomacy
Josh finkelstein ,   Ny usa   (09.11.11)
Israel is paying the price of Lieberman and bibi poor diplomacy. They don't want to apologize to turkey and to Egypt . Now they have to beg Egypt junta to protect it's embassy .what kind of credentials does avigdor holds to qualify him as israel diplomacy chief? What do you expect from a Russian imigrant who lived Stalin s era ? let me tell you something Stalin had better diplomacy skills . This is only the beginning more disasters on the way .
58. this is what it comes to when under
under the mb ,   WORLD   (09.11.11)
this is what it comes to when under the muslem brotherhood control- their acts speak for them and tells us about these er "people" they are evil and acting like sodomites- then why do their first borns die-? they are worse than the lowest hyena, lower than the worst evil creature- and it will count for them
59. All Americans had to say that 2 billion is on the line
ak   (09.11.11)
Americans brokered that lousy 'peace' with Egypt and have kept it alive with the annual jizya of $2 billion of the U.S. taxpayers' hard-earned dollars. There is no peace with Arabs possible. There is no lasting friendship with a Muslim country possible, as Turkey has proven. Israeli government should stop covering for their 'peace-partners' and tell their people the truth. At least that would put an end to 'peace' fantazies and get the people and the Army prepared for the coming war.
60. #40 what makes you think that Netanyahu begged Obama?
ak   (09.11.11)
May be he let him know what he will have to bomb, if Egyptians murder Israeli guards? And why are you so happy? Do you know anybody but Muslims attacking diplomatic posts and threatening diplomatic personel? Remember iranian hostage crisis?
