yaalon- you were a good soldier, out front , brave but not trigger happy. You attached yourself to calm for calm bibi who is like olmert and herzog. Yaalon- take charge for god ake and stop listening to bibi who cannot genetically take the lead on an iran hit. He has to be able to ovoerrule any minister and even the chief of staff. Yaalon- take charge and stop making excuses. Here is the plan. Rush 6 more iron dome out of production. Reveiw civil deffense. Arrange land based rockets to fire on hezbollah if required to equalize terror. Deccidde on the iran hit plan, whatever elements are needed. Get off your asses. I told you the US cannot do this cause obama is a moslem in all but his documents and the US is burnt out from wars. Ehud barak's revelations though he is no saint and who did a lousy job against terror, the revelations are disturbing big time.

I, my children and grandchildren all live in Israel. This is our country which we love. Without using stupid insults as you have done here. I will give you true facts, not untruths as you did. 1. For the past 48 years Israel has occupied Palestinian territory. (There is not one country in the world which agrees to the continuation of this occupation) 2. Israel controls the lives of more than 4 million Palestinians . The Israeli Army has military control of Areas B and C in the West Bank, and when necessary carries out raids in the cities (Area A) The Gaza Strip is a large prison, entry or exit controlled by Israel and Egypt. All Gaza's needs are trucked in from Israel. Hospitalization in Israel is allowed. Gaza's coast is completely blockaded by Israel's navy. 3 Some facts about "chasing Jews" In the past few years there have been hundreds of cases of destruction of Palestinian property in the West Bank, including the burning of homes, mosques and churches. To this day, no Jews have been jailed for these crimes. Three weeks ago settlers threw stones and bags of urine at Israeli police, no one is in jail, no one was shot. Three weeks ago a Jew stabbed six , one of whom died, at the Gays parade in Jerusalem. The police knew that this man had just been released after 10 years in prison for stabbing 3 people, why was he not prevented from committing this crime? 4. You are partly correct about not arresting Arabs, usually when they throw stones they are shot, those whom are not dead are imprisoned if captured. Recently an Israeli Arab threatened police with a knife. When he threw down the knife and ran away he was shot in the back and killed.

Your intrusion into Palestinian territories and lives is not welcome. Pack your settlers and get out. There is NO other solution. Unless of course you prefer one state, which IMO is the better option for the Palestinians who can have a better future as Israelis.

Human Rights of the Palestinians are severely curtailed by the 48 years of occupation. BDS is just beginning! South Africa relented after more than 25 years of boycott and sanctions. By the time SA's only friend in the world was Israel, SA had been suspended from the UN, expelled from almost all international sport and in short had become the World's No 1 Pariah. So it is not surprising that Bibi and Co are shit scared. They are fighting to preserve the status quo, but are trying not to make too much noise about it.. (By the way, in 1962 when the UN condemned SA , as was done annually, Golda Meir, as Israel's representative supported that condemnation saying that "her Jewish Morality caused her to vote that way") Where is Jewish Morality today?

I can't make my mind up either way.....

Toss a coin.....

Israel has established and maintained new borders for security reasons due to the Islamic Vehemence to the Jews which has reached a Viscious cycle .The tolerance that existed has diminished drastically because no Arab country offered massive temporary refuge to the Jews trying to escape Nazi Genocide . Turkey was close and Syria Iraq Yemen and the Gulf States and Iran ought to have offered refuge to four million NonCombatants under USA and British Jewish Protection . Combatant Fit Jews and Islamic Fighters ought have been heavily armed and helped smash The Nazi armies . The help to Russia needed to be Far greater through Iran and the RAAF ought been allowed to operate against the Lufwaffe in a communal defence from 1934 . Then the Armies ought to have overthrown the Stalinist Bolshevics for Social democrats and the Wermacht the Nazis .

Oh no they're not , oh yes they are , oh no .....

whether talking about peres, bibi, olmert and livni, lapid and now herzog, israel seriously needs a new way of screening leaderst. Take bibi for example. He speaks well but cannot back it up period. On wonders why he would seek being the pm when he is unable to make the tough decisions. Barak's recent revelations back up this point,bibi stood around hoping others would make the decision on theiran hit. He is always lookig for concessus unableto lead the charge on his own. Contrast thatwith begin,who half the size of bibi, dragged the mossad and others into the decision to hit osiraq. Incidently, peres, and today lapid, livni herzog and even bibi wouldbe unable to pull the trigger. So what does that they say? They are unfit to be leaders period. Candidates need to show their parties some accomplishment that is needed to be pm,not an arrogant newsman, or a smooth talking politico, nor an mk who has almost nothing to show for his years of servicce(herzog). Bennett, feiglin have more resolve and decisiveness than most of the others who are a bloody joke.
