1. Whomever is responsible for lack of immediate response is at
5th generation ,   Israel   (06.19.12)
fault. Three hours before sending anyone? This did not need to become a huge rager. Whether it be a lack of firefighting services in Osfiya where the fire started, or in Haifa where the emergency line staff didn't move on early calls, the real problem has yet to be addressed.
2. Christian donations
Dawn ,   Israel   (06.19.12)
What about the donations and fire trucks yishai refused because the donors were christian?
3. THIS VIDEO IS THE PRODUCT OF CORRUPT SHAS PRACTICES
stude ham   (06.19.12)
the lack of ethics in this shas move stinks to high heaven. yishai had no business being allowed to carry on in government after the deadly carmel fires showed his horrific incompetence. and now with this most unethical video presentation it is to be hoped that shas itself will be thrown out of the government.
4. yishai and responsibility
marcel   (06.19.12)
trying is not good enough. Its the bottom line. Who ordered that a firefleeting fleet be ordered at once-lieberman and bibi and the planes were delivered. Yishai did not get it done. Barak was detached and disconnected and may be the most haaaretz overrated general in the history of israel. Bibi sat on his ass waiting for barak to spoonfeed him.Steinitz said its not my department. ahronovitch is OK but. The bottom line is bibi and lieberman ultimately did it, not all the others including mindenstraus who instead of writing reports s hould get off his ass and do some real work. as for winograd who gave olmert a pass in his final report, he can go to bloody hell.
5. How will Haim TA be able to handle this terrible news
(06.19.12)
that Yishai is not responsible for the Carmel fire?
6. #3 Silly. Eli Yishai is LESS responsible for the Carmel fire
(06.19.12)
than previous Minister of Internal Affairs, Meir Sheetrit or Ronnie Bar-On who were there before him. Yishai was minister only a year and he couldn't have been responsible for something that others should have taken care of before him. Oh, but he's religious and sefardic! so he's responsible. Please use some brains if you have any.
7. ishai is NOT fit 2 B minister . period!
hot snow ,   tlv   (06.19.12)
8. Who paid???
Dan   (06.19.12)
Why is nobody asking the real question: WHO PAID FOR YISHAI'S PROPAGANDA MOVIE? hint: it is either you, me or both!
9. Why is this year different from all other years?
Orly ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (06.19.12)
1. Why did the Haredim burn down the Carmiel forest? 2. Why did the Haredim spit on that little girl? 3. Why did the Haredim kick that women off the bus when she wouldn't move to the back? 4. Why did the Haredim call that female soldier a slut?
10. Yishai needs to be a mensch & take responsibility
Scott ,   Ramat Gan, Israel   (06.19.12)
Comparing the Carmel fires to the fires in Australia is pathetic. Australia is 1000 times bigger than Israel as were the scope of the wildfires. Yishai has been interior minister under 2 different governments. The money was available for firefighting aircrafts & it's an embarassment we didn't have any.
11. I thought that Shas would pull the race card
William ,   Israel   (06.19.12)
as they often do when they have little else to argue about.
12. Eli Yishai is not repsonsible
Miche Norman ,   Hod Hasharon   (06.19.12)
I coud not agree more Eli Yishai is not only not repsonsible he is irresponsible.
13. #6 - your key point "Yishai was minister for a year"
William ,   Israel   (06.19.12)
In my opinion, a year is more than enough time to analyze problems with the system and order work to fix it. If not, what the hell has Yishai been doing for the year?? If I was hired to do a job and I didn't get anything done in 1 month, let alone a whole year, I'd have been fired!! It's easy to blame it on his predecessors, and had Yishai been in office for 3 months or less I would agree with you. But it doesn't work here. And I think you already know that, hence the reason you didn't include your name.
14. Yishai the snake shrugs his responsibility once again
Haim ,   TA   (06.20.12)
Wonder who $H-ASS paid off ?
15. #5 ever heard of reality ?
Haim ,   TA   (06.20.12)
$h-ass produced video i dont think that needs any further clarifacation even for someone with your brain capacity.
16. A day or a year, it makes no difference.
M. Davison ,   Ra'anana, Israel   (06.20.12)
It happened on Yishai's watch. HE was the Minister of Interior and it was HIS responsibility, period. If a ship's captain runs his ship aground after he's been in command a week, does he retain command? We have let politicians get away with no accountability for too long. By the way, who paid for this propaganda film? Did it come out of the government budget? If it did, what did it take the place of? Maybe the additional firefighting equipment needed?
17. It is incredible
Julie ,   Israel   (06.26.12)
that no one will address the real culprits of this fire..2 Arab-Druze teenagers. NO responsibility, no punishment...off scott free. had they been 2 Jewish youth all hell would have broken loose. Why are their parents not been held responsible? not a word is ever mentined about the REAL culprits.
