1. Israel must back PUTIN. Also must work with AlSisi in Sinai
Alan ,   SA   (12.01.15)
The opening shot in this ASYMETRIC World War 3 was fired by Obama in his now famous Cairo Address shortly after he became President. He has opened the gates of Hell on us all I believe Putin is a friend of Israel and even Jews.... maybe I am wrong ,but that's my view here and now.
2. a thoughtful analysis, a complex situation

6. Well done. So everyone's starting to get it...
JVC ,   LA, USA   (12.01.15)
Obama may yet go down as the biggest mistake of US, and subsequently, world history. And who put him there?
7. Assessment of Turkish-Russian downed plane Accounts
Aydj ,   Ibadan, Nigeria   (12.01.15)
It's obvious from narrations from both sides that the Turks aren't speaking the truth, their actions in drowning Russian Su-24 bomber was premeditated. It's saddened that NATO they ran to for cover, didn't openly caution them. Anyway, the Western leaders must understand that people all over the world, especially their people are watching them & knows where the
8. Putin is Irans ally ! He is a criminal !!!!!!!!

9. Israel must take Israel's side
Avi L.   (12.01.15)
Israel must take Israel's side. If Putin's gang can be used to counter ISIS then use it. If Giora just had a walk in some street market he could have received the same enlightening piece of thought from some Yosi hayarkan. Any street vendor would have told him that the weakening or fall of any arab dictator would have brought up the rise of islamists. So much for researchers and think tnaks! Now because some russian researcher said some obvious truth we should take "Putin's side"? What's this nonsense? Against whom Putin brought AS400 to Syria and sold AS300 to Iran? Against ISIS air force or against IAF? Against Israel! Don't tell me against NATO's Turkey please! Putin is helping Iran and indirectly Hezballah ... wallah, nice side to take. Will we still be able to strike at Iran's weaponry being sent to Hezballah? Or Putin's AS400 will be a deterrent? Until when must we read this kind of nonsense?
10. #1 well said and I agree with you.
JVC ,   LA, USA   (12.01.15)
11. Unlike some I know, Putin learnes from History. Go Vlad!
Allah Fuckbar   (12.01.15)
12. Israel must do what's good for Israel. Period!
tiki ,   belgium   (12.01.15)
13. # 8 Chris so is obama.
BUILD BABY BUILD !!!   (12.02.15)
thanks to obamas gifting Iran with $150 BILLION dollars to kill more Jews and more allies against ISIS. Don't get it twisted. KEEP BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE !!
14. Kremlin's FSB and GRU controls ISIS
Edoardo ,   Trieste, Italy   (12.02.15)
Major-General (res.) Giora Eiland should know how the Caucasian Jihadists in ISIS are smelling to be the guys of FSB and GRU. And how the Kremlin has purchased Turkey via bribing Erdogan's circle with giant contracts in Russia. For years Putin & Erdogan are buddies, do you want to make me believe that only now Putin is awakening from a sleep???????
15. Isis x Israel
Luiz F Haddad ,   Niteroi, Brazil   (12.03.15)
In fact, Islamic State is a terrible foe of the whole world, including the Jewish State. However, for political reasons, I think Israel should not integrate any international military alliance in order to destroy that Evil. Unfortunately, it would alienate Arab and other Muslim countries whose support is needed. But indirectly, like happened in Gulf's Wars, a lot of acts will be welcome.
16. Israel must be alert and awake
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (12.03.15)
be strong ,depend on anybody but G-D.
17. The economic forces
(12.04.15)
That threatened both Russia and Israel. Boycotts and sanctions. The consumption decree will not be determine by generation of vipers. What about the missing Malaysian airline??? Then the coincided downing of Malaysian airline in Ukraine....blamed it on Russia with sanctions. Can ynet show us some of the pictures of their serpentine dragons that they worship and adore in those parts of the world by their elite rich men and politicians??? And what is written in the book of truth is that their serpent gods will eat dust.
18. ISIS less dangerous for us than Iran !
Avi L.   (12.05.15)
For us ISIS is less dangerous than Iran ! Giora, why keep spinning nonsense? Friend with Putin? Just for the sake of worsening our relationship with the USA? For the sake of separating USA's allies the way Putin is doing in Europe? Till when must we listen to this kind of sirens?
