1. Why a ground operation?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.12.12)
There is no need to put Israeli lives at risk. Bomb Gaza into submission.
2. No more "operations". Retake Gaza forever.
Chaim ,   Israel   (03.12.12)
The cycle is not ony deadly. It's tiresome. Gaza "Palestinians" terrorize Israel. Israel does an "operation" in Gaza. I.D.F. troops leave. The terror begins again....ad infinitum It's time to end the sick games. Israel never should have left Gaza in the first place. It is rightfully ours. No more Gaza "operations". Retake Gaza forever.
3. If only Arik Sharon was around he would
Dyslexic... ,   Israel...   (03.12.12)
have taken Gaza in a day.So what the hell are you waiting for send in the tanks and troops,bombing from the air is not the answer too this problem.If Bibi hasnt the balls too do the job lets get somebody that can.
4. BOMBING GAZA !
Mark ,   T.a. Israel   (03.12.12)
A BOMBING FROM THE NAVY WILL CAUSE ANOTHER EFFECTIVE DETERRENT !
5. Arik left Gaza- unilaterally
Roberto ,   NY USA   (03.12.12)
Hi Dyslexic- Arik, your idol, was a great general, but not a great politician. He left Gaza unilaterally. Israel is now paying the price. To retake Gaza might be easy from the military point of view but it is a political hot potato. History tells us that unilateral withdrawals are invitation for more aggression form our enemies

mark ,   gaza   (03.12.12)
STOP YOUR HATEFUL COMMENTS, YOU ARE SUCH A DISGRACE TO HUMANITY
7. what r u waiting for .. !!
Modather Abo.zaid ,   Egypt   (03.12.12)
i like this confident accent of urs, talking like stepping in Gaza is easier than hitting the beach with everything u have .. but actually i know tht u know more than anyone u r addressing with this conformance that when u put ur foot on the land, u'll be busy counting ur dead mates not fighting Resistance Fighters .. :) and u'll keep bombing Gaza stripe from high above to avoid meeting them down there .. u know that this is ur only way to kill as much palestinians as u wish .. so enough deceiving "Zionists Occupiers" mind .. they already massed up ..
8. Islamic Jihad
Brod ,   USA   (03.12.12)
Islamic Jihad and Hamas are one and the same. They are all Islamist-Jihadists.
9. What's less expensive?
Chaya ,   Tel Aviv   (03.12.12)
Continuing to use the Iron Dome and having to repair damaged homes? Or go into Gaza again?
10. לא חשוב מה יגידו העולם.
Messiah King Ofer   (03.12.12)
"לא חשוב מה יגידו העולם. לא חשוב מה יגידו על ישראל בכל מקום אחר. מה שחשוב זה דבר אחד: שאנחנו נוכל כאן להתקיים, ואם לא יהיה ברור שיש מחיר לחיי יהודים לא נוכל פה להתקיים. וזה מה שקובע." - בן גוריון
11. Agree with #1
Linichka ,   Gdynia, Poland   (03.12.12)
I do not want to see one IDF soldier risk his life in that terrorist shithole. Bomb them.
12. gaza
spookey ,   birmingham uk   (03.12.12)
are hamas stupid enoughto use these long range rockets because it will be game match and set for gaza , and world opion will not give a dam , like some one said to me today we are sick of the middle east who cares ,
13. Retake Gaza and expel all arabs into Egypt!
Dan   (03.12.12)
14. Critical time
michaelpielet ,   Israel   (03.12.12)
At this critical I want to give my full support to the people of Israel.
15.  Why are lives in BS worth less than in Tel Aviv?
jason ,   Beer Sheva   (03.12.12)
Asked whether there is a possibility that the rockets will reach the Tel Aviv-area, the senior officer said that terror groups “are always contemplating whether to fire their (long-range) Fajr rockets, but they realize the consequences and make the cost-benefit calculation.” Why are lives in BS worth less than in Tel Aviv?
16. lets see how many rockets do they have?
liz ,   ta & UK   (03.12.12)
if they keep this up wont they run our of rockets or am I just crazy?
17. army cranes ready for ground zero op? where? TA?
observer ,   Egypt   (03.12.12)
18. Bibi shows his true colors
Sheik, Rattle & Roll ,   USA   (03.12.12)
which is yellow. Bibi has no balls. He should call Obama and ask for advice on how to fight terror. If rockets would fall on Florida from Cuba I can assure you that the US Marines would be in Havana in no time. What kind of country lets it's citizens get pummeled by rockets and then attacks from the air " the source of fire". Now I know why BIBI went to Washington on his knees like a little BIATCH begging the big boys to take on Iran. That is because he has no balls. The Iranians must be laughing and saying he has a million Israeli's in or near bomb shelters and he won't fight little midget terrorist and he threatens us. What a joke.
19. Mark in Gaza # 6
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (03.12.12)
Just be glad nobody is firing rockets at you or slitting the throats of your babies. When you people can stop doing that to others then we can talk about humanity. I don't think you have any. If you do, you people hide it very well.
20. #7 Thank you for the encouragament! We'll do as you say.
(03.12.12)
But then - DO NOT CRY like a baby!
21. #1 Ground operation = intelligence gathering
(03.12.12)
22. Gaza
Marty ,   Toronto, Canada   (03.12.12)
Though I try not to be an "armchair quarterback" - now is the appropriate time to deal with Gaza when the UN are preoccupied with Syria. It will be interesting to see the BBC and other left wing media lead off their newscasts with "Evil Israel kills 25 Palestinian militants in clashes today...UN Security Council meets in an urgent session to condemn Israel... and then an Oh by the way - Assad killed 150 in Syria today".
23. whats a good number Sarah?
Rob ,   Orangevale U.S.A.   (03.12.12)
Line up the babies and grab the ol' ladies? Put em in a line and rat atat tat? It takes men and time to make war. Still sitting on the fence between USA and Israel lady? Get off the fence and DO something yourself, instead of deserving the mocking you take on a daily basis. Your big mouth alone aint cutting it is it? I would hate you as my lawyer, as a sure loss is in store for those that 'mouth' but nothing else. I'll ship you some more meds later this week. No compassion for the children ? Are they're children guilty and deserve the vile curse of death you wish upon them. You are sick, and show it to the whole world. Get out. Shalom Israel, Rob
24. #3,Eric Sharon left Gaza and Gush Kativ to the hand of Hamas
Asher ,   NY,USA   (03.12.12)
25. DISGRACE
DAVIDJ ,   JUDEAj   (03.12.12)
Although I am on Ynet's blacklist and very rarely get past their censors, one has to say that it is a total disgrace that this government allows this to go on for more then 4 days. Every couple of hours we get some bogus reports of how effective the IDF is and how hard they are hitting Gaza. Meanwhile rockets keep on raining down on over a million people. For G'd sake stop all the posturing do something, or just shut up already.
26. #7. Hi Zaid...Tut Tut Youve been watching
Tim ,   Brighton   (03.12.12)
Too many Arni Films... Just calm down and keep your hair on
27. rockets
nazy ,   LA USA   (03.12.12)
please bomb them, do not send our boys on ground to fight these sub human terrorist who use their own children as shields.
28. To: No. 6
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.12.12)
Me? Disgrace to humanity? As opposed to suicide bombers and terrorists who target school buses, those who fire 140 missiles in a 72-hour span at civilian populations in Israel (not to mention 11,000 in just a few short years), et cetera, et cetera ad nauseum. And what kind of human scum pass out candies and sweets to celebrate terrorist attacks? For that matter, do you think anyone has forgotten the raucus celebrations in the Gaza Strip and West Bank on September 11, 2001? If you don't like my comments, don't read them. Better still, stop acting like vicious hyenas and jackals, and there will be no "hateful" commentary. From anyone.
29. To: No. 7
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.12.12)
What makes you think Israel will stop bombing? And you grievously over-estimate your terrorist friends in Gaza. They hide behind women and children. Some "resistance fighters." The sane world calls them terrorists.
30. 7
(03.12.12)
mahmoodi honey, your country is going broke! by the way, 2008 israeli incursion into gaza saw 1,400 terrorist dead! amd it involved israeli boots on the ground, you idiot. israel lost only 13 and most of them by friendly fire, moron! hamas leaders hid in the hospitals in gaza afraid of the israelis. hamas terrorist took children against their bodies to shield themselves from israeli fire... some brave warriors you have there. remember how your egyptian soldiers left thousands of their boots in the sinai in 67???? we took pictures of them and laughed. cowards! your mouths are big, but your hand trembles when confronted by an idf.
