... for what they are: hot-air, hate-filled, disrepsectful wing-nuts! Here is a demonstrated HERO OF ISRAEL offering his sound advice to the Israeli public - only to be pillaried and diss'ed by a group of right-wing loud-mouths - because his recommendation does not fit their particular mind-set. Some even have the audacity to call Dagan a "traitor"... So given what he has already accomplished for Israel - and what you have not - you obviously have no shame. So let's see... whose interpretation should we rely on... that of a decorated former chief of the Mossad... or that of a bunch of unidentified wing-nuts?

all your harp players and parrots need to grasp that Meir Dagan and Yuval Diskin are attempting to stop Ehud Barak and Netanyahu from doing exactly what Bush and Rumsfield and Cheney did by enhancing information in order to start a profitable war NOTE NO major officers support it, and neither do most Israelis--HOWEVER, that won;t stop your American fundys over obsessed with everything extremist right wing blind swinging at everything you suspect may not be identified with the far far right stance.Calling Meir Dagan, the greeted Mossad leader ever, a phony or weak is beyond preposterous. All your Christian armchair warriors should send YOUR children to be murdered over there if you want anther killing field so bad. And for god's sake get a fucking life and stop your insane obsession with everything Jewish even Jewish newspapers in your fundy focused "I wannabe a Jew/Christian so bad I even wear tallit to church" . Your are BAD for Israel, not good.

And Dagan is a master of deception ( in other words I take his words with a large pinch of salt ) .

Dagan is not a traitor to Israel. The Israelis are clearly superior in good cop, bad cop. Keep it up, Israel....give our enemy total confusion.

long before Dagan's deadline comes around...

We must remember Dagan was the chief spy master and that is where his expertise is. It is not in planning war strategies. If Israel waits until Iran gets the bomb, Iran will still have its minions in Gaza and the West Bank. If Israel attacks soon, The terrorists will still be there, but at least Iran will be slowed down for years or perhaps for ever. Israel will be in the fight of it's life, but a fight without Iran having the bomb is the better choice.

CBS is trying to prop up Obama for the coming election. If Obama can stall Israel long enough he will never have to support an attack, by Israel, on Iran. And since he will not be able to run again, he will no longer care about Jewish votes, nor campaign money.

Dagan states that we know how a war will start, but will not know the out come. However, he goes on to say that at the end of the day Iran will still have the nuke program. Guess Dagan knows the out come of the war after all! I think that the PM is on the right track, and I will back his words which seem to be in the best interest of the Israeli people.

Finally someone who has remembered that there are Jewish people who live in Iran and are quite happy to be there. Their community is not bothered and they get along quite well with Iranians. I wonderee how long it would take for someone to remember that their 'fellow Jews' live there and are doing well BIG THANKS
