What are the dangers that Israel faces? Hezbollah firing missiles they received from Barak, Olmert and Livni. Hamas firing missiles and AlQaeda attacks from Sinai using weapons they received from Barak, Sharon and Olmert. Fatah snipers and death squads using weapons they received from Barak, Peres and Rabin. Can anyone see a common thread here?

Shows the contempt he shows to the sons and daughters of normal decent Israelis who continuously pay the price. Whilst increasing the monies given to the Haredi who avoid the call to arms at any cost.

American pilots flew combat missions in 1973.

Not in Israel, they didn't, you fool. On the other hand, Soviet pilots flew combat missions for both Egypt and Syria. Why don't you get your facts organized before you spout nonsense?

is that the IDF can only rely on the IDF. The politicians failed the people, and left them as sitting ducks, so the deranged nations would not say Israel is the aggressor. Which by the way, they would say even if Jews were all comatose.

We must not jump, we have waited four years, perhaps we should wait another few years? I am a firm believer in doing as little as possible, even if it means the death of thousands of the best of our young people eventually. I guess I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, eh? Love, unle Ehud

In Vietnam ?

I knew him personally. No question of it. Also, name calling is pointless. Discuss your POV like an adult, or don't respond at all.

No, I'm referring to the 1973 war, Oscar.

How many days into the next major war will Israel be demanding a major resuply of weapons from the US. Probably about three days if you you go by past wars.

The only one who is showing contempt is you. You know nothing about our Prime Minister & how he cares about the citizens of Israel. I suggest you shut your mouth asap. Your constant drivel is boring & very uninteresting.

uhh can't you read, the PM is on his way to the UN GA, he cannot be in two places at once

Shimon, where did you get your information tha American Airforce pilots flew combat missions during the Yom Kippur war? I know that Nasser and his allies claimed thatAmerican planes were used in the pre-emptive attgack on Arab air bases during the 6 Day war and that these claims were blatant lies. Arabs just could not acknowledge that the IAF knocked out the airforces of Egypt, Syria, and then Jordan without American help. I'm waiting for your souce and I expect it to be an Arab source.

Your facts and source array 100%wrong . I happen to be one of the F4 pilots and can guarantee that not a single forging pilot flew any combat missions for this country at any time. Your friend may be American by birth but received his training in Israel and was a member of the IDF.

Your first post implied more than one pilot and your second implies only one pilot. I think Sarah B was right when she called your first post nonsense.

Recently you made mention of California in a response to me. The Left Coast extends from the Mexican border to the Canadian border so you were not wrong. I just happen to live in the cold wet part of it.

and evicts Jews from their homes, and speaks of further "Withdrawls". Shocking that he is our Minister of Defense. He is the last 'man' I would choose for this position.

Thanks for your explanation Eagle. I appreciate it.

The pilot I knew was not Israeli, and flew A4's. He wasn't the only one. I'm not speaking through my hat. I say only what is known to me, personally and from a person I know was truthful. You are free to doubt... but it is the truth.

No foreign pilots were flying in or for the Israel Airforce in 1973. End of the story!

Because you say so. I see. Too bad you're wrong, birdi.

Nope, I am not wrong. As an American do you think you know better than we Israelis do? We fought in that war, did you? We were in Israel at that time, were you? You dont have a clue & you are very naive to have believed an outright lie.

He is a coward and unclever idiot! Israel is in danger,big danger, with him as Defense Minister. Hopefuly he will be fired by the next PM or before!

Yes, birdi. I was in the war as well. I'm glad you got through it. I was initially in the north, then we were moved to the south and crossed with Arik. We were on Jabal Attakah, and then after k"m 101 were in the Gizrah Tzfonit, at 'Churchill'. I'm not naive. If you knew the individual, you would believe him as well.

Are all these people * supposedly in the know the culprits for handing over weapons (in the name of the wee man!) to their ENEMIES. Now someone will surely write in that Israel TRUSTED the arabs and the whole matter is swept under the carpet yet once again!!!!!!!!!!!! Could that be the reason why Jews are not trusted? Is it fear or is it just plain ^pennies^ in the pocket?????

YOU take a powder and a strong one I might say. You have a head full of straw..... NOTHING MORE. I don't ever recall anything decent or intelligent coming over your mouth!

Though my reply to you is late, I Say to you, dont read my posts so you wont be bored. Your mouth needs to be washed out with a good floor washing soap. And a very happy new year to you! Now run along.
