Israel is the only country in the world where the left is in love with USA! And USA in love with the left! Maybe that's the reason they don't arrive to have majority?

If he or any leader in Israel was concerned about security, Hezbollah and Hamas would't be able to launch missiles at Israeli cities with impunity. The bottom line is that they can't give up the West Bank because of the religious fanatics that control just about every sector of Israeli society and he know's that.

The Leftists know that Ya'alon is right and that their whole ideology is false. The Left has nothing but baseless and nasty personal attacks.

political history, a government whereas all parties agreed with each other.

Quote : " Only our continued presence in Judea and Samaria and the Jordan River will endure that Ben-Gurion Airport and Netanya don't become targets for rockets from every direction " . Did not Hizbullah target all northern Israel , including Netanya , in the 2006 war ? Did not HAMAS target almost all southern Israel , including Be'er Sheva , in its many duels with the IDF ? Almost certainly rockets of HAMAS will reach Ben Gurion airport and even beyond that sometime in the offing... Did not Iraqi missiles reach the very depth of Israel in the 1991 war ? Genuine and fair peace with the Arabs is the very only solid guarantee for Israel's survival...

America itself does not know where it is being taken to by its administration No one can defend Israel other than Israel itself Abbas does not represent Arabs ; Arab League endorsed his 3 nos. No recognition of a Jewish State, No limitation on Pals return to Israel No unification of Jerusalem Given Obama call to return to 1967 borders; Abbas demands Judenrein Yehuda & Shomron, USA walked from its allies, Iran got Obama nod for freehand in Syria, Lebanon and Iraq Whatever Livni is doing, is endangering and damaging Israel, Thank Goodness for Yaalon.

first, differences between friends does not damage relations, contrary to livni who says you have to make nice with kerry to have good relations-what a dumbbell. lapid- knows nothing about security and his comments are worthless. Herzog- this puny weakling could not defend israel from nothing- the arabs wo9uld love to have him as israeli leader - that would be the end of israel. The US plan is worthless from a security point of view-yaalon is 100% right. Mitzna. he was as wrong about philadelphi withdrawal as sharon who I do not blame cause he would have reacted severely to rockets attacks unlike our pathetic cowards olmert and livni who allowed the south to get pummelled before reacting. and mitzna-where was he when hamas fired 10,000 rockets, the big talker whose ideas are also worthless. In the middle east, you do not give up the gun period as arabs cannot be trusted-look at syria, that is what the arabs would do to jews 5 X over if israel disarms. Peres- htousands of israelis died because of the delusional idealist who has been wrong about everything. Yaalon was the only one in the idf who fought sharon on the gaza withdrawal and he was right. Ask 1 million israelis who was right. hey Kerry- your so called plan is garbage period and israel has to remain on the jordan valley soveriegn, not lease period. So get lost. Yaalon is 1000% right and israel cannot afford another general to lead the idf like halutz, or a non geneeral like peretz. Yaalon is the best israeli soldier along with galant and israel needs him. So once again israelis, do not be taken in by this weaklilng herzog and self hating haaretz and ynet with their self hating pacifists.

There is nothing called free lunch. US support to Israel for the USA benefit.

What is the big problem to recognize Israel as Jewish State. What about when Arabs calls Arab Republic of Syria, or Egypt, Islamic Republic of Iran. Israel does not want another front where you can send missiles. By the way Salim, you have already took stolen property which the British Mandate stolen from the Jews given to the Kingdom of Hashmite of Hejaz. and Jews are closing their eyes. Read the quran which says Israel is Jewish land. How many times Jerusalem is mentioned in your quran ? None. Why & WHY ? Mohammed never set foot to Jerusalem, so how he flew to Heaven, while he was still in Mecca/Medina in Saudi Arabia. Enough with your Islamic myths

this government of Israel is not representing the jewish people. if they believe it is possible to make peace with barbarians of whom every second sentence is "kill the jews, wipe Israel off the map", than Israel is in mortal danger. at next war there be no Sharon to lead the idf to victory....

Ya'alon is absolutely correct. Kerry is a megalomaniac who believes that he is the next iteration of JFK. Together with his tyrant leader Obama, he is more than happy to throw Israel under the proverbial bus. I firmly support Israel and it's people so please DO NOT trust these snakes that run my country.

Look, you don't say everything that just pops into your head. I agree that Kerry's efforts aren't producing much, and he could afford to back off for a while. But don't insult him!!

Hint to Livni: it's not Ya'alon. It's not Bibi. BH Obama has been trying his best to destroy that friendship since he took office. His appointments of Kerry as SecState and Hagel as SecDef were part of that effort, but it will fail. DESPITE Obama and Kerry and the genuflecting of Livni, Mtzna and Herzog, the friendship is strong and will remain strong!

Absolute bull. Wrong, wrong & wrong again.

Not Sarah B's post.

No hypocrisy - just telling it as really it is.

What, is Israel now Obama's dhimmi? Ya'alon has to "apologize" for speaking the truth of Israel will suffer consequences? What a disgrace!

Leftist Lunacy is siding with Kerry the Papist Crusader. Instead of defending Israel, they are siding with Israel['s enemies.

Not only is he right but I do not see anything insulting about being messianic and obsesive
