Israel would now be a much stronger state and the people would be much happier. He wasn't afraid to be a strong Jew and he was proud of the land G-d gave us. We need a leader like him as Prime Minister now.

Israel has lost a great man. he is the right hand of zionist leader Jabatonisky, he is the historian, he is the father of an outstanding war hero Jonathan and a good PM Benjamin i remember his opinions about the conflict and the arabs he is a great man, may God rest his soul in peace and be with Netanyahu and his family shalom

Farewell, great father of the nation whose son is the Prime Minister now and hopefully for another term of office if he is not worn out with the burden. I salute you. The nation salutes you. You are with Yonatan, now, happy in his embrace, watching the Earth and counselling the Great I AM.

He saw the holocaust coming years before it happened. He predicted correctly that no nation would come to help the Jews. When a boat full of Jewish refugees arrived in the US. The US Govt under Pres. Rosevelt sent it back to Nazi Germany. Israel can learn from him not to trust our so called "friends." Israel can only rely upon G-d, their excellent army, and the Jewish people. There are no other friends.

Heartily condolence.... "great souls never die"

As far as I know the average life expectancy in Israel is among the highest in the world. But it would be very interesting to make a statistics about the number of peoples older, than 100 years. Antisemites allege that the jewish state is "a cancerous tumor in the world" ( himself Pres. Ahmadinejad ). What a tumor is, where a lot of peoples live more than 100 years. And how many live the same age for instance in Iran ???

Kindly do NOT speak for the nation of Israel.

the guy next to Peres is Netanyahu brother Iddo Netanyahu, he is a physician and a radiologist shalom

not just the tribes of Judah, Levi, and Benjamin. But even if Israel only was composed of those tribes, my pedigree in the Oxford Dictionary of Surnames of my ancestors is of the tribe of Judah. My mother belonged to Beth Shar Shalom Congregation in Tucson and celebrated a seventh day Shabbat. She belonged to the Jewish Community Center in Tucson for many years. You should apologize unless you are looking in a mirror and seeing yourself as the fake Jew.

Thanks but we dont need your blessing or guidence and religious mumbo jumbo, you are not a jew and you are not Israeli.

The death is a natural and nothing we can do, I just wise long life to PM and best future to State of Israel,

My mother was a member of the Tucson Jewish Community Center and was a seventh day Shabbat keeper as a member of Beth Sar Shalom Congregation. What are you? Do you have such credentials? Hmmm? Israel is a nation formed for the Jews of the world and the Israeli Supreme Court has ruled that Messianic Judaism is an acceptable religion in Israel. If you don't need to read HaShem's words in YNET posts, then don't read them. They are clearly labeled "Rivkah". Skip them so you won't be offended by what the Great I AM puts in my heart to say. You do need HaShem's guidance and blessing as does the nation of Israel. Remember that Prime Minister Netanyahu is an American as well as an Israeli. When he says he objects to my posts, then that will carry some weight with me. Your opinion does not since you hold HaShem and His Words in such contempt.

Nothing, repeat, nothing you can say here will make me believe you are not a fake Jew. Your posts are full of babbling about stuff we dont want to hear about. Your life & your struggles do not interest us. This is a Jewish news website not an agony forum. You are in dire need of the services of a good shrink. Your ramblings are not welcome here.

No Fad, the guy left of Peres is not Ido. Ido is aged 60, born in 1952. The guy left of Peres is well under 60. It could be late Yoni's son.

Kudos Haim.

Whoa, woman, you have reached the limit now. How dare you question what Haim or anyone on this forum believe in or not. Haim is as much an Israeli as he is a Jew, exactly like I am.Whether Haim or I are religious Jews or not does not concern you. We live, work, pay our taxes & raise our kids in Israel. I cannot speak for Haim on this, but I did my national service & have paid my dues & am still paying. You have one hell of a nerve to chastise us here. Take your rot away & leave us in peace & quiet here.

I wish the Netanyahu Family long life. BIBI, your late Dad, like my LATE DAD, was a great man and a great JEW with unrelenting ideals and values, you should be incredibly proud. Please follow these principles in your execution of ISRAELI policy and THE GREAT STATE OF ISRAEL will continue to flourish, remain steadfast and determined.

yes you are right, he is not Iddo, he cant be Iddo Netanyahu thank you for your clarification and i am sorry for this mistake anyway i am so sorry for this huge loss which happened to the nation of israel and i hope that Bibi will fellow in his footsteps and May God bless Israel shalom

Ariel Sharon lost his oldest son, Gur, too. General John Joseph Pershing lost three of his four children and his wife in a house fire in the Presidio of San Francisco while he was in Arizona chasing Pancho Villa. Maybe HaShem needs a great sorrow like that to mold a great leader. President George H.W.Bush also lost a child, as did President Abraham Lincoln and so many others. The sorrow did not defeat them. It was a spur to do greater things than might have been accomplished without that sweet sorrow of memories of a departed one.

Everybody has right to post, we (talkbackers) aren't moderators in shadow. She is well intentioned and sincerely believes herself. Just miss her comments without negative emotions. Let them read who has no other work and information sources
