31. Dry run to kidnap IDF soldiers
Lee Kaplan ,   Berkeley, USA   (12.22.12)
First, this has major implications. What Arab would have dared to sneak onto an IDF base years ago, steal a soldier's weapon and leave. This is like jumping into a pit full of hungry lions--at least it once was. Now the IDF has shown the IDF is nothing to be feared. That this could happen on an army base after the Shalit fiasco show's this ain't the same IDF. The soldier should be court martialed, serve 30 days in teh brig and his officers should be relieved of duty and rank. This will happen again..just watch.

Cameras are much better

Many M16's have collapsible buttstock, makinig them shorter than a normal rifle UZI's are obsolete Concerning handguns, the 9MM is what's popular, i prefer my .45, it makes a bigger hole and has more stopping power
34. #10 A.Base - It's quite possible
BEN JABO (MACHAL) ,   ISRAEL   (12.22.12)
that he didn't have a cartridge "up the spout" on instructions from his superiors
35. #21 MORON - POT
BEN JABO (MACHAL) ,   ISRAEL   (12.22.12)

37. #18 Concerned - Two on duty
BEN JABO (MACHAL) ,   ISRAEL   (12.22.12)

38. #27 Mike - Who was to know its a toy
BEN JABO (MACHAL) ,   ISRAEL   (12.22.12)
Go to any toy store, You will find imitations that look like the real guns, same size & shape, it's hard to know the difference unless you are holding one One missing gun, which can be turned against our own people You sure are making a lot of comments from some who wasn't there and saw exaclty nothing Look at one gun did to the school in Conneticut, 27 innocent people were killed by it, there was a 28th, he was the gunman
39. #29 A.BASE
BEN JABO (MACHAL) ,   ISRAEL   (12.22.12)
For iyour information, the USA had to recall most of the M-16's at the start of the Vieitnam war BECAUSE THEY JAMMED, they had to CHOME THE BARREL bores & change the ammunition components to prevent further jamming

A Base ,   France Paris   (12.23.12)
I agree with you ! You are 100 % right! It is for me very sad to see the deterioration of the IDF . The worst is everyone take notice of this nuisances. At the beginning I played down my concerns, but now I fear Israel is going down the chute.
41. #38..Hey BJ
Mikesailor ,   Miami, FL   (12.23.12)
How do you know the soldier is telling the truth? The IDF lies like a rug. I particularly enjoy your statement about this being a 'dry run'. Dry run for what? The soldier was basically unharmed. Apparently there weren't cameras showing the events, nor were there any IDF or other 'Jewish' witness. I guess the witness would have to be Jewish, otherwise a racist would immediately discredit any testimony because of the ethnicity of the witness, Unless, of course, such witness was a 'leftist' or other 'self-hating Jew'. All we have is either blatant incompetence or a lying 'soldier'. Or is this really one of the IDF 'heroes' who are only heroic when brutalizing defenceless civilians. Why are Israelis so gullible? Becaiuse theu check their brains when they espouse such fairry tales.as truth.
42. Serious crime
Chaim Ben Kahan ,   Efrat, Israel   (12.23.12)
The gun stolen by Arabs will be used to murder Jews. This is serious.
43. read the news: attacking soldiers
mike ,   New York   (12.23.12)
To many attacks on Israeli soldiers. Seems like testing patches of weakness for mass kidnapping of IDF soldiers. God Forbid
44. #41 Hey Mike - Who are you to criticize
BEN JABO (MACHAL) ,   ISRAEL   (12.23.12)
You weren't there and saw nothing and know even less I guess it would have made you happier if the solider had been killed or kidnapped Brutalize "Defenseless Civilians" when & where did you PERSONALLY see it ?
45. #38 BEN JABO
Marco ,   Spain   (12.24.12)
Mikesailor is commenting about different possible scenarios,which is ok even if he were not there... But you BEN JABOare sticking to one and only one story which is the one given by the soldier. Were you there? If it were that the soldier sold his weapon and is attempting a cover up, how would you know it is not true? Were you there?
