1. What is the question
Doug ,   U.S.   (08.23.13)
I don't understand what the problem is, here. Has anyone ever said that Iron Dome batteries are deployed along the entire northern border, from east to west? Has anyone ever said that one battery is capable of defending such an extended range?
2. DESTROY LEBANON AND IRAN NOW !
(08.23.13)
3. Why is the PM only talking?
Israeli 2   (08.23.13)
Because he needs permission from his master Obama who enjoy to see Israel as the cowardly underdogs that they truly are. "Hezbollah are baiting you Israelis into another war. Can't you see? If you attack them the whole darn Peace Process will fall apart. Don't you even think about it, Bibi. You hear? What is that? Yes, you may just bark. Good boy."
4. 1 out of 3
Gerry ,   Los Angeles USA   (08.23.13)
Maybe Israel will be a little less arrogant toward its neighbors when considering how over-hyped Iron Dome is. Yeah, right.
5. warn lebanon
Barney ,   USA   (08.23.13)
that this won't be tolerated and then the next time, and this is giving them the long end of the stick, aggressively bomb them to give Israel a safe boundary. It will be up to lebanon to warn their "residents" that retalitation is coming. If they don't heed the warning then the blood is on their hands. Israel is clearly the victim and not the aggressor. World opinion be damned. No other country in the world would stand for this.
6. "Peace talks with Palestinians" always bring mass suffering.
Chaim ,   Israel   (08.23.13)
Oslo "peace talks" cost Israel more than 1,500 murdered and over 14,000 maimed civilians. Now Israel is beginning to pay for the latest round of sick evil talks with "Palestinian" poseurs, who want us all dead. The time is long overdue for the vast sane majority of Israel to rise up and put a permanent end to these abominable talks once and for all.
7. Lebanon's major cities will be destroyed it is prophesied
Rivkah   (08.23.13)
in Scriptures. Lebanon should outlaw Hezbollah and put the Hezbollians into prison before the prophesies come to pass in the hope that YHWH will be merciful to Lebanon. YHWH gave peace to Lebanon anciently even when there was not peace for ancient Israel, such was YHWH's appreciation to the Lebanese King Hiram for supplying lumbar from the cedars of Lebanon for building the First Temple.
8. # 3 IS CORRECT
ADAM ,   CHICAGO   (08.23.13)
OBAMA BACKS THE MUSLEM BROTHERHOOD THAT DATES BACK TO THE 1930 PERIOD THEY AIDED HITLER AND TRAINED IN EASTERN EUROPE TO FORM BATTALIONS TO FIGHT ALONG SIDE THE NAZI ARMY.BIN LADIN WAS INSPIRED AND BECAME THE ARM OF THE BROTHERHOOD. POINT IS PRESIDENT OBAMA IS A MUSLEM HATES ISRAEL AND IF THE ISRAEL LEADERS ALLOW THEMSELF TO BE HIS DOG THEY WILL DIE BEFORE HE IS OUT OF OFFICE.
9. REBELS ARE GETTING PRETTY DESPRATE
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (08.23.13)
It shows that Assad is already winning this war. Israel should not get into this. We need to be patient or we will have to attack in so many fronts.
10. IAF targets south of Beiruth
CJK   (08.23.13)
alleged target was the headquarters of the PFLP-GC. the popular front for the liberation of palestine-general command is a marxist organistation with a rejectionist ideology.
11. War IS Coming:
shrinkDave ,   Miami USA   (08.23.13)
there's no doubt about that. But it is doubtful that you heros and manly men that want the IDF to go in there and kick some tuckus, know what that would really be like to our soldiers in the field.
12. IDF has just hit Southern Lebanon
CJK   (08.23.13)
13. Pathetic response
Dennis Greenstein ,   nj usa   (08.23.13)
The only way to protect Israel, as usual, is to take the war to the enemy> The Lebanese non-government needs to leanr that if Israelis suffer a hit, they will suffer 10/ Four rockets get 40, with much better targeting, I would hope, in return. This is the ONLY language they understand. I know: the ordinary Lebanese will; hate us more. We dont need them to love us. That will never happen. We need them to respect (fear) us.
14. too weak
alexi   (08.23.13)
peres was terribly weak, olmert was extremely weak, barak was weak in response and bibi is very weak, so he constantly blabs. Sharon was strong but got into legal trouble and so took the advice of weisglass who knows nothing about security which he covers with fancy words. Rafu Eitan would know what to do. Bashar assad knows what to do. Bibi does not today or tommorrow or ever nor do most of israeli leaders in labour, meretz and the religions. They are weak as hell, a bunch of habers.
15. Iron Dome
Rabbi Yakov Lazaros ,   USA   (08.23.13)
The iron dome is a joke. The best defense is a strong offense If the Arabs fire 4 rockets then Israel should fire 40 rockets back at them. That is a rsponse the Arabs would respect.
16. # Idiot, 2nd class in every aspects
(08.23.13)
Cowardly underdog applies to Nasralla who is hiding. Like a cukkoo in a Swiss clock, he only comes out to tweet. We can't wait for the Piece charade to break down and Kerry to go . Abu Mazen represents only his bank manager
17. The REALITY is all anti-missile systems
spyguy ,   seattle   (08.23.13)
are only marginally effective and if a large barrage is fired at Israel, most will get through.
18. Keep it up!
Koose E Mack ,   NY USA   (08.23.13)
Keep throwing rocks at the toughest SOB in the neighborhood. Eventually, he will get up and kick your ass! #6 you are correct...the trick is, make them suffer, not us!
19. #6 Chaim
Bob Cassidy   (08.23.13)
1500 is nearly the number of innocent Palestinians killed in Operation Cant Lead. There have not really been a lot of jews killed over the years in Israel, have there Chaim-not compared to non-jews.
