I would not take any advice from "Generals" who lost war to Hamas last year.

What planet is this IDF officer living on? Even if he is blind & deaf or does not have a TV or computer to witness the daily PA glorification of terror attacks, surely he must know the PA has allied itself with Hamas who joined the government. The rare times the PA arrested a terrorist there were never jailed for more than a few days. What is needed is the IDF needs to go on the offensive & stop constantly being on the defensive, waiting for the next attack - not build up the enemy.

If Israel gives more arms to the PA, she is basically giving guns to the terrorists. If knife attacks aren't so terrible wait until they have guns.

they're not even out of school yet.

The Zionist Unity ought form a coalition of National Unity and Build Arab Cities with Arab Workers In Judea and Samaria on the West Area of the Jordan River and send Gazan Arabs who have the Capacity to live in Peace with Jewish Israelis to those mega cities . For the meantime Judea and Samaria ought be Stringently Militirized with massive Missile Defence and Deterrant Missiles and Jets and enormous numbers of nuclear shelters . The Jews need build many deep tunnels for essential transport and survivalism. The defence in Jerusalem has to be Stringent .

if bibi said flat no to the idf about arming the plo police, that is a good thing. Rabin mistakenly did this, and a lot of israelis got killed and wounde It is a dumb idea hatched by idf which is looking for an easy way out.you cannot bribe the arabs with guns to keeo their brethren in check. As for yaalon, bennett is entitled to his own ideas.\if you feel your gaza operation was so good, how is it that israel has to go there every 2 years? At the very least, arm the jewish population since mostly they are on their own. Yaaolon is a respected general but attaching yourself to bibi was a big mistake.

May be our leaders should consult the Tora before it is to late. . The Tora says : Being good to enemies is being cruel to friends

No building by any pals for any reason whatsoever. And, you need a new name some folks may mistake you for a crazed Jew when in fact, your promoting the illegitimate Arab pals. BUILD FOR JEWS ONLY !! JEWISH LAND JEWISH CITIZENS. !!pals can go to hell with obama.

By all accounts ( except yours) Israel won the battle handily. Then, Israel took heat for 'disproportionate force.' Most of which came from the White House followed by obamas supporters, the UN, EU and sundry 'humanitarian groups' AKA terrorists Arab pal supporters. If there's another war, I hope Israel will leave nothing but a black hole and a smudge where Gaza once was. Maybe then you'll recognize what an impossible position obama and his legions have made for Israelis very survival. Like the saying goes, 'your either for me or against me.' BUILD MORE BUILD FASTER!!!

the suggestion to arm abbas's police so the can assist in thwarting terror given the oslo history is too much to bear. \even if this officer is an outstanding fighter, he is unfit to lead the troops. \g\he should be demoted of booted out of the idf. \and yaalon who has good skills, if he backed nuna on his proposal, then he should be fired. i have never heard such a stupid proposal. These guys would have given the germans more guns so the could fight the nazis which is laughable. Since this kind of proposal keeps coming up through the years, it has to be concluded that jews are sick.

Here is another General that is ignoring past failures in the hope that it might work this time RELEASING PRISONERS - the arab media will sell it as a great victory for Abbas who will then demand even more prisoner releases or else and the message is sends is terror brings victory. ALLOWING GOODS TO JUST GO STRAIGHT INTO ISRAEL NO CHECKS - this idiot doesn't think terrorists will be smugled into the country by delivery companies. GIVING WEAPONS TO THE PA - the PA forces have plenty of weapons & Abbas keeps threatening to end security cooperation anyway. WORK PERMITS LAW CHANGES - this idiot thinks we should have a free for all and not let contractors be the ones to decide who they need.
