1. Stupidity, Idiocy
al mann ,   Israel   (03.20.12)
Do all the latest inventions have to be shown to our enemies as well? Must they be shown the potentials which have been created for the defense of the people? Communication of this sort is rediculous and injustifiable.
2. To: Al at No. 1
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.20.12)
Honey bunny, if Israel is sharing this level of technology, it is only because Israeli technology is already fifteen or twenty steps ahead. Relax. We are way ahead of anything the Americans have produced. ANYTHING.

While majority of the oldies live in poverty, there's no money for fire alarms, fuse breakers, for sprinkler systems and proper inspections in senior housing ,... http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4204103,00.html

Are you joking? The US Military is twenty years ahead of any military with second to none power projection capabilities. The US Military spends more money in a month than Israel spends in 5 years. one 2.1 billion dollar US B-2 Bomber has more firepower and stealth capabilities than 2 squadrons of Israeli US made jets.
7. "Da" moron @ 5
Eli ,   USA   (03.20.12)
Who even writes "Da"? you are clearly uneducated. What does the link you included in your response have to do with this article? Clearly you are using faulty reasoning to assume that Israel should be spending its money on fuse breakers instead of military technology. First, the issues involve two entirely seperate governmental agencies that have different agenda's. ie housing vs. defense. Second, without military spending, there will be no people left alive to benefit from properly functioning smoke alarms. I agree that something must be done for these elderly, however, the fact that you allude to some relationship with this article does not make sense.
8. 7 - without military spending, there will be no people left

How about you teaching Israel's neighbours how to live peacefully with Israel? Try......
10. Israel sells most of this tech
Gili da Dudey Lad ,   Dude Town   (03.20.12)
And yes these new weopons DO end up in the hands of our enemies. Sarah B you're no expert, try actually checking facts before spouting your own made up propaganda. In your eyes Israel can never do wrong. Guess what, wrong!
11. @6, and others.
Daniel ,   Tracy USA   (03.21.12)
i am not under estimating the global reach of the US and it's technologies however the basic design and deployment of what is developed by the US is exactly as you stated a global reach. Israel has designed shorter range types of technologies and in many cases lower tech is better. If you loose one or a piece of equipment it isn't a huge hit. Israel has had an outstanding run with the Markava Tank line, and also other items like air to ground video feeds, and also their drone technology. No they are not like the global hawk but then again they do not need to be. Small, light, cheap, and enough technology to get the info back to the soldier on the ground is where it counts. Now the B-2 and 117 are great technology break troughs. Although they cost more that some countries have in their entire budget. They were also designed for a specific role and application. Sometimes creating something that is flexible, and low cost, and has it where it counts is more important. The Arrow missile, and Iron Dome are such examples. As far as show casing their technologies Israel does sell outside it's boarders, and it is the outside most of us see. The inside is another matter entirely.
12. Israel'd military sales
philipmax ,   NY   (03.21.12)
Since the days of Alexander the Great, Jews have been providing military equipment to many nations. In the 30 years war, in Western Europe, the Jews were counted on to deliver better cannons and better muskets, as well as food, uniforms and horses for the warring nations. I befits that tradition that Israel should again lead the world in excelling in the development ofadvanced military hardware.
13. Thank you Mr. Mahatma Gandhi
Maxim ,   ISRAEL FOREVER   (03.21.12)
Coexist in peace? With whom? with the devils from Iran, Syria, Lebanon and Gaza? You tell me how amigo.
14. 13 - "They" doesn't work anymore ,...
split ,   US   (03.21.12)
Any idea why you been kicked out from 109 places since 200 AD , running since the beginning of time and hated around the globe ?
15. Warsaw Ghetto
Zivron   (03.22.12)
If the Jews of eastern europehad prepared escape and fight back plans alothey could have taken a lot more Nazis doesn't with them and encouraged resistance that would have forced the french and English supported by USA to attacck the Nazis and forcced Stalin out of perfidy matched only by incompetence.
