1. And remember! It all begun after Obama Cairo speech!
David ,   Rishon IL   (08.16.13)
2. #1 OMG
Ilan ,   Ramat Gan   (08.16.13)
Your right! That's insane , the realization just hit me!
3. Israel an Island of calm and stability
(08.16.13)
which is precisely why Kerry and Obama aim to stir up the PLO and Hamas. When Israel becomes a bloody mess like every other country in the region, then their work will be complete.
4. #1 Absolutely
Gee ,   Zikron Yaakov   (08.16.13)
Over 90% of my comments are being blocked - but I hope this one goes through. Yes the speech which the US FORCED Mubarak to allow the MB to attend. I noticed that Israeli newspapers are ignoring the reports that large numbers of the victims were tortured to death by the Muslim Brotherhood in those "peaceful" protest camps. Or that during the riots that the MB burnt 21 Coptic Churches
5. Human nature
Zechariah   (08.16.13)
The inherent innate predisposition to violence revenge Power Glory and Madness The Jews Know well. They have suffered greatly as has a lot in humanity and the survival lessons are clear.
6. Israel is not involved in any of this
CJK   (08.16.13)
the muslims are slaughtering each other. that is their problem.
7. SADAT
JS ,   USA   (08.16.13)
It all began when extremesits assaninated the Egyptian head of state on prime time during a military parade. Obama is simply sh*tting his influence down his leg.
8. Not 3 days ago Nasrullah was
DT ,   TA Israel   (08.16.13)
boasting from his "pen" about injuring the IDF soldiers. Good that he is getting his "come uppance" and that it will continue with mounting losses by Hezbullah in Syria. More the merrier.
9. The Inciter in Chief
Norbus ,   Jerusalem   (08.16.13)
No independently minded observer can fail to see the game Obama has played Rooted in the hate speeches of his mentor Jeremiah Wright, intervention to create chaos is frightening, and on a scale unknown in modern times
10. It's all in preparation for WW III.
Rich ,   Toronto, Canada   (08.16.13)
It's a setup by the elite. Obama is just a puppet and scapegoat for this elite. You people commenting should realise this by now.
11. 9 Norbus, correct
CJK   (08.16.13)
he has no conscience.
12. 5-Absolutely.
Ypip ,   Canada   (08.16.13)
13. #1 It began in Tunisia.
Zvi   (08.16.13)
Egypt was a sideshow at first. The obsession with blaming absolutely everything that fails on Obama has reached ridiculous proportions. Obama screwed up the situation vis a vis Mubarak and vis a vis the MB, but he did not cause the Arab Spring.
14. Israel always complain about others
Sheik rattle & roll ,   USA   (08.16.13)
mainly the US, however it never does anything. One example is Iran, I have never heard of Israel sanctioning one country, but it is always screaming "we" should turn up the heat on Iran and it does nothing, nada, zilch. In regards to Syria it doesn't even have the balls to admit it struck Syria, but complains about the US leaking information. Now Egypt is on fire and it blames the US when it is "keeping to the sidelines" . Finally some one has the balls to call a spade a spade. Well we (USA) is keeping to the sidelines too and it is our prerogative so let's all enjoy the show.
15. Israel vs Iran
James Wheatley ,   N.Y., USA   (08.16.13)
Israel will make its move to take out Iran's nuclear program soon. Read the new thriller The Bahrain Protocol - to glimpse the future.
