2. Stupid comments from stupid man, stupid Islam, stupid Arabs!
(02.13.18)
3. Assad the butcher
Zvi ,   Toronto   (02.13.18)
His next surprise is probably to slaughter another four hundred thousand of his own citizens in a war of 1400 years between the Sunnis and the Shias
4. Half of Syria's air defences were destroyed in 30 minutes
Steve Benassi ,   Minneapolis USA   (02.13.18)
The other half will be destroyed in the next "surprise" and Assad knows that
5. Scores of Syrians and Iranians killed during the "surprise"

6. an old saying says it all....
Philip ,   Northern Israel   (02.13.18)
"speak softly, and carry a big stick." best that our arrogant leaders learned the wisdom of this.
7. bibi unable to tell trump no
areieh   (02.13.18)
bibi cannot do it, he cannot disagree with trump. he is not that type of person. there are people who can say no-begin told reagan and carter no, shamir told bush no,sharon could say no. the rest are yes men-olmert, livni herzog and lapid run after and fawn over usa, usa which does not have israeli interests in mind.e ven now trump's reported peace plan is not good for israe.

bibi is one of those who cannot say no. perhaps how he was brought up, pershps being shot in military action has paralysed him. even the fact that he appears fit doesn't overcome his fear and insecurity.

a friend suggested what is at play here is the sons and daughters of the pioneers and associates were coddled and overprotected and thus, are flimsy weak characters eg livni, olmert, herzog, bibi,. I think that is partly at play here.whatever the reason, you have a fibber here in bibi, wholies his teeth off putting off votes constantly, railing against the police like a crybaby, and worse, not backing up his tough words by chaising ceasefires and begging putin for help. he should be hammering the hell out of assad-10 sites?? he should have hit 100 sites to drive home the point. he calls it a terrible blow-no it iwas not terrible.

indictment seems to be the only way to get bibi out of office.a nd so he and his wife will both be indicted.

the press does not want to admit it but bennett is the natural leader of israel by far. the darlings of the press gbbay, lapid are weak like bibi, very weak.

never mind trump-israel has to fight its own batles . I would put my stock in bennett and no way would i vote for lapid or gabbay, just no way.
8. VLADI HAS GOT S-400, YOU ASK THE IRANIAN MULLAHS TO BUY IT
Iranian Jew ,   LALA LAND   (02.13.18)
for you. VLADI has got a perfect biz going on here. Milking these idiots for protection. I imagine lots of people now will be interested since an F-16 has been shut down.
9. Lieberman: the less said, the better...
Rafi ,   US   (02.13.18)
No one knows 100% how things will turn out or evolve...

Better to keep options open
10. #6 Philip : The Old Saying:
MR CYNIC ,   SAFED CYNIC HOUSE   (02.13.18)
" Speak BIG,and carry a soft stick .."
11. right to defense itsself
joe   (02.13.18)
israel has no need to keep saying it has the right to defend itself.just defend yourself and shut up about it. does usa or russia say they have a right to defendthemselves when theytake action.

waht kind of nationkeeps saying we have a right to defend ourselves. of course as a soverign nation you have a right. buy by saying it every time, you are undermining that right. so shut up about it.

you don't need mattis uk or others to say you had that right.

only a submissive people would say please... would you okay our right ot defend ourselves. this isa reflection of netanyahu and other leasers..

so shut up aboutit.
12. Assad is almost History anyway.....
Koose E Mack ,   The Great Satan   (02.13.18)
I think Vlad wants to get rid of Assad and put their own Puppet Regime in power. In essence, Israel would be doing Putin a favor by taking him out.
The whole region is a China Foxtrot.....Let's pray it doesn't end in WW3.
Thanks to Assad, the population of Syria will be reduced to a few hundred thousand. He's doing a great job at population control...Genocide at its best.
13. Assad the monster has no idea what Israel has or what
C   (02.13.18)
israel is capable of.

assad had his entire country destroyed by his own amazingly stupid
strategy, such as barrel bombs.
about half the population of his country has been displaced and lives
in utter misery.
assad is hated and his life threatened every minute of every day.
yet this psychopath threatens israel, the most powerful nation
in the middle east.
14. Oh we also have many more surprises for Syria!
Phoenix   (02.14.18)
Bigger surprises that can turn Syria into a big crater on the land!
15. If Putin's poodle gets the S-400, it'll get interesting.
JVC ,   LA, USA   (03.09.18)
16. Assad Russian lapdog don't brag
lal ram ,   Wolverhampton, UK   (06.07.18)
Assad don't brag, losers don't have bragging rights. Are you serious you camel herders stool, don't you realise the might of Israel forces, don't you realise how advanced Israel forces are, they are technically more superior even more than your Russian masters, you have more surprises for Israel, you are kidding me. You will only learn when your is kicked out of your palace in Damascus. when your air force completely destroyed on the ground, when your missiles launchers are completely obliterated, and your army completely defeated then you will try and catch the fastest camel train to Tehran or Moscow. You will find it extremely difficult to find a hiding place when all this will happen. Happen it will...it's matter of time. Your own people whom you have murdered and oppressed will make mince meat out of you, so listen up my giraffe friend. God bless Israel and Jerusalem.
