1. why is the cause of fire only " SUSPECTED " ?

You must report be related to realty - not imagination- Why don't you admit it was caused by a balloon.
Maybe you are trying to give the impression that balloons are harmless and the fire just CONCIIDENTLY -some people may believe it
2. Gazan patients still stream to Israeli hospitals,it's their
ab   (10.06.18)
"human right" confirmed by the High Court of Israel and Israeli docs,all paid by taxpayers
3. Medieval war techniques
Farid H. ,   Germany / Morocco   (10.06.18)
Such incendiary devices were already used in antique and medieval times. How comes that highly developed nations are still vulnerable to such an ancient weapon? Can't this be countered by affordable technical means? Like, say, laser beams to shoot the balloons down before they cross the border? Or a network of sprinkler irrigators to kill the fires before they spread?

Surely , they are hurting us more than we are hurting them !.We soon won't have any unscorched land for them to send baloons to..If they have fields send baloons over to destroy them in like manner.Do this or make me a IGeneral (although i don't speak the language,but I know what tit for tat is all about )
5. Lieberman is a lot of talk
Barney ,   Memphis   (10.06.18)
Carpet bomb 1 mile from the Gaza border. No warning leaflets create a buffer zone and if they want to continue increase the zone. They are sending fire devices and Lieberman is responding with hot air. Get him out of his position
6. When will enough be enough ! Liberman ?
barbara ,   Haifa   (10.07.18)
Liberman - all these fires are polluting the air. Hope their is no future
illness involved from this pollution.
7. Birthday balloon terror, only fools believe this bs

8. Send a message
Larry ,   Los Angeles   (10.07.18)
If the IDF doesn’t respond with a devastating attack it will send a terrible message of cowardice.
9. Scaled down the fishing zone
Ron ,   LA   (10.07.18)
Scaled down the fishing zone...That 'ill stop'em. Killing off the kite flyers stops the kite flyers. Closing the crossing stops the violence. Nothing else will work.
10. It's Leberman's hot air that's fueling these flames!

if proven that balloons caused fire the it is time for retaliation. fight fire with fire. set fire to several farms in Gaza. do it again if need be. balloon caused fires may end or decrease. worth a try.
12. No evidence of childrens party balloons anywhere.
NYNY   (10.07.18)
No evidence of incendiary party balloons anywhere.
But i did love the song 99 Red Balloons and the lyrics in which children party balloons led to a long war based on a misunderstanding. I really hope Israelis are not so stupid to believe in this mental manipulation.
13. Fictional narrative based on song 99 Red Balloons. LOL
NYNY   (10.07.18)
The entire incendiary party balloon story is a BS.
14. 99 Red Balloons is a german song from the 1980s
NYNY   (10.07.18)
This entire narrative of incendiary balloons is propaganda.

Al tiye friar.
