1. gantz and yaalon working together
milson   (08.09.14)
recall diskin with dagan set up a buiness witholmert on foreign policy advising- this after winograd said olmert(in the interim report was missing an understanding), diskin was there at the time advising as olmert sent 150 idf to their deaths with hesitations and kowtowing and incompetence. So diskin is in no position to lecture gantz. Israel has beaten hamas but not enough and it has not been using asymmetrics- ie drop explosive devices in eveyr shaft within gaza, start fires, pipe in sleeping gas, whatever it takes to bury hamas underground. philadelphi should be retaken, idf should dress up in hamas gear and reverse roles. etc etc diskin is in no position to advise and lecture anyone. Gantz did not fail though he is no sharon or gallant.
2. Ironically, President Obama just loooooooves
erin   (08.09.14)
Lt. General Benny Gantz. Why is that?
3. Who put these two fellows in charge of defence
Miron ,   USA   (08.09.14)
Who is trying to absolve Netaneyahoo of disastrous mismanagement of country.
4. Disatisfation in Israel
Steve Gure ,   Coconut Creek USA   (08.09.14)
Finally someone in Israel is waking up. It is not just Yalon and Gantz but BIbii and the entire leadership who is supposed to peotect the people.. They have called a truce while the rockets were still falling and widrew the troops from Gaza. I am sure that they have not destroyed all the tunnels. They have learned nothing from their past mistakes and continue to repeat them
5. My kids asked me if the war was over or not...
Rube Vogel ,   Jerusalem   (08.09.14)
so I told them that our half of the war if over but the Hamas half of the war isn't. They didn't understand what that meant. Neither do I.
6. REALITY - If the people in south Israel want "safe."
spyguy ,   seattle usa   (08.10.14)
then they should move to the USA. The IDF can never make it "safe" in south Israel no matter how many people it kills in Gaza. In fact the more people in Gaza die, the worse it will be for the people in south Israel. There is NO MILITARY SOLUTION, only a political solution and for that to happen, Israel will have to treat the people of Gaza like humans. People that move to a war zone should not complain when the war impacts them.
7. Right and Wrong
Joe ,   Israel   (08.10.14)
It is appropriate to correct Gantz on an ill-advised statement. However, what purpose does it serve?
