1. Yawn !!! ,...
split ,   US   (07.31.12)
2. Is the Man an Imbecille ?
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (07.31.12)
I Quote - senior American officials arriving in Israel, such as Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, are expected to convey a clear message that a unilateral Israeli attack in Iran will not be tolerated. No comments ! Arn.Sweden.
3. Liar, there are aircrafts sent up north right now
Shelly ,   Haifa, Israel   (07.31.12)
Why send them if he isn't planning an attack? They've been flying over Haifa since this morning.
4. It seems that History will come back
Peace makers ,   Hebron , Palestine   (07.31.12)
woe , Israel and the temple mount was destroyed a three thousand years ago , I am a faid that history repeat it self again .
5. Not until the November elections
Amichai ,   Huntsville, US   (07.31.12)
Nothing will happen until after November. Bibi will wait to see what happens with US elections. I predict that if Obama wins, Bibi will attack immediately since he knows that any faith in Obama is futile. If Romney wins, Bibi would probably hold out until the inauguration in January so he would have full US backing.
6. Let's see israel do it!
RS ,   USA   (08.01.12)
all talk...........cowards! Perhaps you want the US to do it for you?! Would be so much easier, we do everything else for you, cry babies!
7.  warmongering and threats are illegal under the United Natio
Peace makers ,   Palestine , Hebron   (08.01.12)
warmongering and threats are illegal under the United Nations charter . the Israelis will not do it , Iran is not a joke the Israelis prefer the puppets ( US citizens , Ghoys) to do it rather than the chosen people
8. Its time Gantz is fired
Frank T   (08.01.12)
Its time Gantz is fired, who the hell does he think he is.....giving interviews and preening around on TV for the cameras. Baldy Dagan should also be locked up for sedition or handed over to his Iranian friends.
9. Netanyahu is perfectly correct
Tomar Berg   (08.01.12)
Netanyahu is perfectly correct. Imagine if Israel had not bombed Osirak (against American & European objections), those Scuds that hit Israel in the Gulf War in 1991 would have had Nuclear warheads on them. And the Ayatollahs are 100X more fanatical & extreme than Saddam ever was !
10. West is collaborating with Iran
D Kaplan   (08.01.12)
Netanyahu & Barak should not fall for these time wasting tactics. Its absolutely clear the the West is collaborating with Iran in delaying tactics. Obama, the anti-semitic Catherine Ashton & Europeans are trying to save their economy, not in the least bothered about Israeli survival. Israel should attack immediately on their own as no one will help them.
11. Piggy Panetta
Ted Dexter   (08.01.12)
Piggy Panetta seems to be hovering all the time over Israel these days ! Obviously trying his best to stave of an Israeli attack on Iran for his master Hadji Hussein Obama.
12. A time for war
RC ,   USA   (08.01.12)
This predicament is not as simple as it seems. If Israel goes at it alone there is a big probability that other Muslim nations will see it as a rejection of the other nations to help Israel and that might give them the pretense to join in the retaliation against Israel. You have to keep in mind that Sunni and Shia do not get along but the Islamist hate towards Israel is much stronger. It is very unfortunate that Obama has shown some disdain towards Israel, the Islamists are counting on him to let Israel down. Saudi Arabia is going to have to put more pressure on Obama because they know that the Iranian Mullahs are hell bent on creating world havoc in order to bring about the Mahdi. Iran has already made a move on Bahrain. Iran now has greater political influence in Iraq and will eventually be going after Mecca the throne of Islam. These are dark times and Israel needs to look up to YHWH Almighty for help. May Netanyahu have the fortitude and courage that he will need and may America and the West stand by Israel in these very dangerous times.
13. Iran has no nukes, does not need them, unless attacked
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (08.01.12)
...then everyone will be sorry for a long long time. Do not force Iran to go nuclear!
14. #4
IDF Kahn ,   Israel   (08.01.12)
By your logic, no way Israel bombed the Iraqi nuclear sites. That must be some crazy Jewish concocted conspiracy to take credit away from the Americans who do everything for us.
15. Of course all the Left are against anything
DT ,   TA Israel   (08.01.12)
that protects Israel and secures its existence. Not surprising they werte against a successful attack in 1981 as well
16. Israel is too afraid to attack Iran
Dan ,   NYC   (08.01.12)
If not, they would have already done it (instead of always talking about it.) Instead of attacking, they'll continue to beg and plead for the US to do their dirty work for them. Perhaps they lack confidence after the fiasco in Lebanon.
17. Panetta, Shmanetta
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (08.01.12)
Who cares what Obama's flunky says?
18. The scene unfolding with total predictability..
Tim ,   Brighton   (08.01.12)
Iran issues formal threat day before yesterday that it regards any further sanctions as an act of war A further set of choking sanctions activated formally today All Iranian naval leave cancelled and all patrol vessels and warships fully armed The Mullahs have ofiicially given complete opt out of fasting during Ramadan to all troops, support services etc Whilst the worlds attention fixed on Syria and the Olympics and right in the middle of Ramadan..who would ever have thought Ahmadinejad would make his move to seize the Hormuz?
19. BiBi poved it again , he is a coward .
Salma ,   Palestine   (08.01.12)
20. well, our leaders have shown their true colors many times
jack bauer   (08.01.12)
the lot are corrupt to the bone. They need to stand up and defend jews for a change.
21. Bibi at his best
peter ,   tel aviv   (08.01.12)
wow this is a real Bibi show. He does all the things he does best. He summons the reporters,even though there is nothing to tell. In the interviews he dangles the Iranian threat over the public's head as to make sure they understand that right now he is too busy averting the catastrophe single handed and can not deal with day to day operation of the government such as social issues and balanced economic management of the budget. And yet again he proves he can not make up his mind on anything. If we would live in Roman times he would probably announce a round of circus games.
