31. No sympathy
(07.08.14)
There are no surprises here: the attacks on Tel Aviv were expected. Zionists warned this would happen but were mocked by the Leftists leaders who gave Hamas the rockets and launch pads: Rabin, Peres, Olmert, Sharon, Livni, Lapid, Herzog, Peretz. Enough Israelis repeatedly voted for these Leftists. Now they are getting exactly what they voted for. I wonder if Livni, Lapid and Herzog will condemn the IDF for not spending more time to catch "Price Tag" graffiti.
32. #24 Larry - The litmus test is how many Israelis have been
meir elazar   (07.08.14)
killed or seriously injured so far? Then look at the terrorists and their losses. Not difficult math I think.
33. Hamas will fight to their last breath. Accommodate them
David ,   Hartford USA   (07.08.14)
They want to die for Allah, for jihad, for the Ummah, for dar al-Islam. I say let's help them along as quickly as we can. The IDF should not send a single soldier into Gaza until the place is a smoldering heap of ashes. Hamas hides behind women and children- who have been weaned on jihadist bullsh-t for generations. Attack until Hamas is no more. A rocket launched from Gaza should guarantee that the neighborhood it came from will be destroyed. The IDF artillery and IAF should blast away until Hamas and its supporters have been terminated. Israeli life is too valuable to waste on an early incursion to Gaza. Let the carpet bombing do its job.
34. 11-George Galloway
k ,   US   (07.08.14)
people like George Galloway should be the real targets, he hides out in Britain and he antagonize the Arabs to keep on fighting, him and the rest of these anti Israel westerners need to be targeted like the Israelis have to target the Islamic terrorists who are trying to kill them
35. Israel, finish once and for all
CJK   (07.08.14)
hamas and its sister terror organisations must be eliminated.
36. #3
Paul Paine ,   Yennensvelt   (07.08.14)
I Do.
37. Israel is a pathetic state!!!!
Oleg ,     (07.08.14)
It should go to war, immediately , and full blast, no matter the casualties --own and of the Arabs, no matter of so called the world opinion...
38. i guess if dome on the rock gets hit that's okay. hummmmm
ralph   (07.08.14)
39. I urge every decent person who cares for Israel to pray in
Al   (07.08.14)
your own way for the safety and security of Israel. This is not a police action. This is War! Israel is facing a war of survival. Hamas is well armed and determined to cause tremendous damage. Should the Arabs see that they can beat Israel, they will join en mass in destroying her. God bless the IDF...God bless our soldiers. May we emerge victorious.
40. For the security of Israel
S ,   USA   (07.08.14)
For the security of Israel, Gaza must be retaken and DE-POPULATED. Shipped to the West Bank or other Arab countries.
41. #37 Oleg - I wish you and your family would endure nearly
meir elazar   (07.08.14)
20,000 rockets and then we will see how brave you are. It is exactly because of anti-Semitic trash like you and history that we have learned to stand up to terrorists. We are proud to show the world exactly how to deal with Radical Moslem Extremist Terrorists. I only wish our government would go all out against Gaza and all Gazans who elected Hamas to represent them exactly like they they aspire for our citizens. Unfortunately they warn the terrorists to leave and blow up empty buildings. We should finish the job with no mercy exactly like what they are trying to do to us.
42. For no.5
Raoul ,   Israel   (07.08.14)
As already explained by others Iron Dome only strikes at rockets which are pre-determined to be headed for built-up areas.
43. Germany vs Brazil
observer   (07.08.14)
maybe they will stop throwing rockets now, to watch the game.
44. Larry: you are clueless
(07.08.14)
Obviously you don't know that the beauty of iron dome is that it calculates where the missiles are going to hit. Missiles that are going to hit open spaces are not intercepted - and they are the majority. Only missiles which are going to explode in populated areas are intercepted. So the fact that 10 percent of the missiles are intercepted doesn't indicate that iron dome failed to intercept the rest but that the rest landed in open spaces and, thank god, caused no damage.
45. #29 Ben
Albrecht Klein ,   Germany   (07.09.14)
Just in case you haven't noticed: Israel has no heavy bombers.
46. Israel is a Sovereign Nation.
Reuven Brauner ,   Raanana, Israel   (07.08.14)
No sovereign nation must put up with rocket attacks from anyone. As such, Israel has all legitimacy in clobbering those who are committing this illegal act of aggression. We have zero tolerance for this Gazan Arab attack.
47. And if the western countries would have opened their gates
Benny ,   Canada   (07.09.14)
to Jews, including Canada and US, many Jews would have been saved.
48. Hamas missiles targeting "Islam's holy"Jerusalem
Alan ,   Canada   (07.09.14)
The shooting of missiles on Jerusalem that Muslims claim to be their holy city shows again the political propaganda tenor of that claim. Not to speak about the disregard for the potential risk of killing of of their own "brothers" living in Jerusalem or elsewhere in Israel. Hamas missiles targeting "Islam holy" Jerusalem
49. Western Countries
Dave ,   New York   (07.09.14)
"if the western countries would have opened their gates to Jews, including Canada and US, many Jews would have been saved." Which Jews? When? What has this got to do with the bombing in Israel at the moment? Perhaps you could rephrase what you said: If the arabs would have wanted peace, all of them would have been saved.
50. #13 Hamas is Israel's creation
(07.09.14)
After decades of subjugation of the indigenous population what did you expect? You're only cleaning up your own mess and making more mess in the process because that's the only thing you are capable of.
51. I love Haifa
Non Jewish immigrant ,   Haifa   (07.09.14)
Lots of Israelis deny Haifa its beauty and interests but meanwhile the cosmopolite city is the safest and the most colored
52. @50
The Ginger ,   Istanbul   (07.09.14)
And Israel is Christianity and Islam's creation. Rather than coming up with your own stories, you decided to usurp those of the Jews - their laws and customs - and then claim to be the 'correct' faith. 2000 and 1700 years of punishing 'Christ killers' and subjugating 'dhimmis' - what did you expect? You are now dealing with a determined and aggressive people which is now your mess and the results of their actions are your mess. In fact most of the troubles in world stem from the imperialism of both Christianity and Islam - two cultures that have completely destroyed countless cultures and languages. Deal with reality.
53. #1 ab - congratulations
solomon ,   bklyn   (07.09.14)
One can’t write a post more stupid and idiotic...and you crammed it all into a few short sentences. Mazel Tov for your refusal to deal with facts.
54. #41 meir re: #37
solomon ,   bklyn   (07.09.14)
I think you misread his post. Read again. He supports Israel.
55. #50
solomon ,   bklyn   (07.09.14)
Jews are the indigenous people. The arabs came in the Muslim Conquest of 647AD. Facts win every time. Fantasies are the only thing you are capable of.
56. FREEDOM!
palestinewillbefree ,   definitelynotisrael   (07.09.14)
you brainless fellas, you are all hiding the fact that Israel is the real terrorist over here! if you are smart enough, you will know how Israel had killed many people especially children in Palestine. you and the Israel people deserve a place in hell!! you may win now...but just wait for God to bless all that you have done.
57. #50
Simcha ,   NYC USA   (07.09.14)
Then who created Hezbollah? Isis? The PLO? Boko Haram? and numerous other terror groups?
58. #41, First READ #37, then comment !
Z. Lazkow ,   israel   (07.09.14)
59. # 46 Reuven Brauner, Raanana Israel
Sjoerd van der Velde ,   Hoorn, Holland   (07.09.14)
That is right and correct. For example, also Israel is an independant and sovereign state, nation, land, country and entity, with self-determination and the/a right to serve and to protect by self-defence and pre-emptive action it"s people. MAY G.D BLESS THE JEWISH, ISRAELI PEOPLE AND ISRAEL (, too)!
60. Your reward for forever playin' around with Gaza
