2. Where's a Gatlin Gun when you need it ?
barbara ,   Haifa   (07.14.18)
Doesn't anyone in Israeli govt and IDF realize that Pali's want to die.
Why not help them? A good machine gun or Gatlin gun would do the trick.
How do all of you 'down south' have such patience for this nonsense ?
Enough already. We've got to finish this - as the North is now heating up.
3. One big reason to feel disgrace&anger at our Dear Leaders!

4. israel is still fighting defensively
jeff   (07.14.18)
first step-remove bibi. he only does bandaids. he is directly responsible since he did not deal with the issue head on. he was a reluctant soldier, never really one-he is a diplomat. he is also gunshy because of his war experience.

so remove him from any decisions.

idf bombardment should use naval, artillery, surface to surface rockets, drone loaded with munitions, and air force. there should be an all out blitz, not using one arm of it.

what the hell has happened to the idf with its band-aid approach. this is not the way to fight wars in the middle east.

as for the EU and its demands-ignore them- they can go to hell. trump was likely right about where europe is headed.

the main thing for israel is to remove the obstacles to fighting full force. that obstacle is bibi-force him out.
5. hamas has nothing to worry about
ari   (07.14.18)
Hamas need not worry-netanyahu will work with Egypt for a ceasefire. instead of all out bombardment-land, sea and air, bibi will run to a ceasefire.

bibi doesn't have the guts for all out warfare. he talks big but shrinks from battle unless he gets 100% guarantees. now you know why dagan called him a coward and not just because he did not engage peace, but because he is scared of a decision.

he has little understanding of the battlefield, sits there like a sponge. worse, he gets idf and even Lieberman thinking like him.

to defeat a tough enemy, you have to go all out. you cannot do with limited air bombardment. as hapless halutz and olmert found out.

6. oh hamas is worried
beryl   (07.14.18)
the best that netanyahu can do is another speech where he says if hamas doesn't get the message today, it will get it tomorrow. what a weak, ineffectual response that should make himself ashamed.

begin had more will in one finger than bibi has in his entire body. he runs scared whether it was in the Jordanian caper where he ran to release the sheikh, whether his apology to erdogan and ransom payment, whether his withdrawal from hebron. even in Gaza war protective edge where he along with lapid backed the generals in their do nothing approach and then raced to a ceasefire before even the tunnels were hit.

it is hard to admit it but Israel has a coward as its leader-that is my opinion. he will not change. his mo is the same. the most you get him to do is bandaids, and concessions to Russia.
there is no comparison between nasrollah and bibi. nasrollah other than occasional rhetorical excesses, is calm, measured and digs in for the long haul. he also unveils surprises very well. contrast him with nervous sweaty bibi freaking out over this or that.
7. Hamas must be destroyed
C   (07.14.18)
the situation in the north should not prevent action against hamas terror group.

israel has in the past fought multi-front wars and won.

the longer israel waits to initiate wars against terror entity gaza and iran
in the north, the harder it will be to win.

israel should not wait for permission of foreign actors to defend herself.
the genocidal shia terror regime is very serious in its threats against
the jewish state.
