1. Surprise surprise. Ynet trumpets the lies of our enemies
Jake   (08.15.13)
What the hell kind of a headline is that???
2. Israels don`t blow up themselves
Nora Tel Aviv   (08.15.13)
Look for Al Kaida. (End).
3. fingerprints vs brainware
Marcel ,   San Jose, Costa Rica   (08.15.13)
President Suleiman seems to be guided by the need to protect Hizbollah. Israelis don't blow themselves up. If Israel had planted the bombs, Nasrallah would be dead. Nice try, Mr President, but I suggest you look elsewhere.
4. Seriously doubt Israel did it
Shep ,   Memphis   (08.15.13)
Hexbullah has been real busy making enemies, but blaming Israel makes them look good and takes the heat off of them for embroiling Lebanon in the Syrian war. Such banal crap - and they believe it!
5. What a surprise
Mike ,   Seattle, USA   (08.15.13)
Once again, homicidal, suicidal Arabs are blaming the Jews for their own dysfunction. Arabs are slaughtering each other by the thousands all over the Middle East and the Jews have nothing to do with it. This is the oldest game in town and the oldest lie in history. When in doubt, blame the Jews! When will the Politically Correct world wake up and admit these people are simply not rational, and cannot be dealt with in any kind of a rational manner?
6. As if Lebanon needed any help in destabilization!
Steve ,   UK   (08.15.13)
As if Lebanon needed any help in destabilization! If this has any 'fingerprints' it is displayed in this claim. The typical blueprint of Arab and Islamic regimes refusing to accept responsibility for their own brutality, their own acts of terrorism, and their continual willingness to blame Israel for their self-inflicted woes.
7. So what are you going to do about it, Mr. President?
A ,   Belgium   (08.15.13)
Your country lost its right to be a part of humanity when your predecessor, Bashir Gemayel was murdered and the PLO was allowed to enter Beirut. You don't preside over Lebanon anymore Mr. Suleiman, Nasrallah does, from the sewer under your feet. And he calls the shots, and if tomorrow he orders his Hizbollah baboons to shoot 500 rockets into Israel, they will. And your Lebanon, like "palestine", will have to be filed under category..."nonexistent". And who are you going to blame after that?
8. the liars of lebanon blame israel for muslim terror
CJK   (08.16.13)
it is obvious and openly admitted that the bombing in southern beiruth was carried out by al qaeda affiliates in revenge for hezbollah's support of the assad regime.
9. As Begin once said: goyim kill goyim ...
Cowboy Joe ,   Calgary, Canada   (08.15.13)
and they come to hang the Jews
10. but it's so e-a-s-y ....
dan kaplan ,   usa   (08.16.13)
... to blame the jews. and when questioned, they answer "...but so-and-so says ... and he's jewish, you know ..."
11. Not Israel
Oleg ,   Canada   (08.16.13)
Usually Israel would target a specific person(s). I don't think they would blow up anything randomly - just to kill anyone. I don't believe it's Israel.
12. Great, great news!
Kobi Martin   (08.16.13)
What a great week end i will have. This people are so trash. How can the leader of a country without any clue condemn another country for the sake of nothing? Let them destroy themselves till they disappear from Earth.
13. Lebanese clueless childish buffoons
bernard ross   (08.16.13)
they deserve each other
14. Beirut Bombing
Ed ,   Goodyear az.   (08.16.13)
Nowhere in the world is there as much killing as there is in Arab countries. They are a backward group of people with no conscious. It will benefit all mankind if they literally destroy each other. The Jews should just sit back and wait.
15. Michel Sleiman again scared of blaming Hizbollah
Alan ,   Canada   (08.16.13)
A week or two ago Michel Sleiman for the first time dared to criticize Hezbollah for its intervention in Syria & the divisions it causes in Lebanon. Four hours after his speech a bomb exploded in front of his presidential residence. He must have learned his lesson & he now prefers to blame Israel, a safer option in trying to explain to the Lebanese the reason for their plight without involving Hezbollah. But in doing so he indirectly reinforces Hezbollah in its propaganda as the necessary "Resistance" to Israel, a pretext to maintain its hold on the state by the threat or violence or, when its suit its purpose, by the exercise of brutal violence
16. #14
JS ,   USA   (08.16.13)
Sit back and wait for what?
17. 'The Aisha Mother of Believers Brigades' translates to...
Ron ,   Seattle USA   (08.16.13)
'It's more fun killing than staying home and caring for our families'.
18. Not Israel this time
Arabian   (08.16.13)
This time it is not Israel. It is sunni vs shia. Sunnis avenging shia support for Bachar Assad, the syrian dictator. We Arabs cant continue to blame all our ills on israel.
19. # 5 MIKE
robert levine ,   Las Terrenas,DR   (08.16.13)
You are a GENUIS. I agree with everything you say.
20. USA-CIA have 369 reasons 2 be responsible...
Just Sayin' ,   Israel   (08.16.13)
just remember April 18, 1983 USA embassy in Beirut bombing and October 23, 1983 USMC barracks in Beirut bombing. both were carried out by the Islamic Jihad/Hizbollah...the Presidents of the USA may forget these events but the CIA and the USMC sure haven't forgotten. Anyway it was the Americans. not us.
21. Different day, same accusation...
M. Davison ,   Ra'anana, Israel   (08.16.13)
When in doubt, blame "the Jews". It always works. You'd think by now they might change their tune for once...
22. Arabian; Eve you have fallen for it
Tarbouche ,   Aswan   (08.16.13)
Just like the Talmud authors used euphemism : referring to non Jews as mins, so Arabs use a similar convention
23. It's called 'focusing on an external enemy' to avoid.....
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (08.16.13)
24. oops typo! Israel should sue Lebanon
(08.16.13)
25. No wonder Lebanon is the joke of ME
Nick ,   Sweden   (08.16.13)
26. The usual Muslim trick: the cowards murder
Vardina   (08.16.13)
each other but do not have the guts to assume responsibility, therefore thry to put the blame on Israel.
27. Thank you #18
Israeli ,   Haifa   (08.16.13)
18. Not Israel this time This time it is not Israel. It is sunni vs shia. Sunnis avenging shia support for Bachar Assad, the syrian dictator. We Arabs cant continue to blame all our ills on israel. Arabian (08.16.13) I agree. And, this act is just not Israeli MO. Israel does surgical strikes to protect against collateral damage, not random blasts killing wontonly.
28. I am Laughing
Sams ,   Lagos   (08.16.13)
These people make me laugh. Everything that goes wrong in the Arab world has Israel's finger prints. Even the so called "The Aisha Mother of Believers Brigades for foreign mission" The speaker accused Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah of serving Iran and Israel, what a statement! I srael will not plant a bomb to kill innocent Lebanese. Israel will only plant a bomb if they know for sure Nasrallah will be taken out. Sick people
29. If Israel would culprit half Beirut will be parking lot
Avram Goldsmith ,   Toronto, Canada   (08.16.13)
30. Our fingerprints?
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (08.16.13)
On a suicide car bomb? Exactly how many Israeli suicide bombers have there been - oh that would be zero. Exactly how many Israeli car bombs have there been - oh that too would be zero. It was a mile away from their target. Some 'fingerprints' - exactly none of the attributes of Israel and 100% of the attributes of a typical Arab action
