1. All staged
Boaz   (09.01.19)
UNIFIL, IDF and hizbullah all agreed on the location and redundant vehicle. Arab honour has been restored :)
2. Nasrallah needs to be the main target here
Talula ,   Tel Aviv   (09.01.19)
He needs to go and meet Allah - enough of him already.
3. "A number of hits?" That should be impossible.
David ,   Hartford USA   (09.01.19)
Why are Israeli military vehicles taking 'hits?'

Didn't Israel spend tens of millions of dollars building the Trophy system to prevent exactly that scenario??

So what happened? They're turned off??

Maybe the soldiers don't know how to use it? What's going on?

This doesn't sound like an army that's prepared.
4. Thank you Mr. Trump.
Truth ,   Truthville   (09.01.19)
Hezbollah is acting with a degree of caution that is rather unprecedented.

The Iranian patron has been neutered.

Hezbollah with, one can assume, thousands of war dead from Syria, is in no rush to get bushwhacked.

Thank you Mr. Trump.

American Jews, of course, will rush to vote Dem and support "The Squad."
5. Needed: Overwhelming force
DSM ,   USA   (09.01.19)
Is there no leader in Israel who understands that this war of even exchanges can eventually lead to the defeat of a small country with a small population.
6. idf chief and hezbollah
james   (09.01.19)
bibi should stay out of idf chief of staff's wat and his conduct of operations. bibi runs scared in heavy fighting and looks for quick ceasefires. he should stay away but he won't because he wants some glory to help in the elections. All bibi does are are band aid ceasefires and growing arsenals of terror entities on all borders. Bibi is simply bloody weak in war. Bennett would be 10x better.

also gantz should be nowhere near idf operations as well based on his abysmal Gaza performance. Ynet-have you forgotten this fact. Read the damn shapira report. Gantz's recent language directed to nasrollah was weak. he says nasrollah should have mercy on Lebanese civilians who will be smashed in all out war. mercy is the last word that impresses Arabs. They go for blood. understand why they are petrified of Putin who delivers crushing hammer blows. He doesn't ask nasrollah to show mercy..

bibi will cut short idf response to hezbollah-watch. he is a coward when it counts.This is surprise. he is a man of words and letters, not a fighter, not at all.

Israelis-vote for shaked and bennett . stop wasting your vote on bibi or anyone but bibi. vote for bennett and shaked.
7. where are trophy and antimissile systems protecting bases?
ed   (09.01.19)
idf based must have trophy and iron dome systems in place to protect vehicles on bases. where the hell were they>
8. lapid and hezbollah aggression
barry   (09.01.19)
lapid is just tlike olmert, a war pacifist who blames the existing govt for everything. instead of joining arms with the govt in smashing hezbollah, he rails against bibi for not being ambiguous about operations inviting hezbollah retaliation. hezbollah does not do Israel any favors. it will attack at will. olmert buggered up the hezbollah war-he had no idea of how to fight a war.. he has taught lapid well because he knows nothing from nothing when it comes to security.

bibi is no saint in these matters. war is on, join up and help. if bibi screws up which he might, then attack him and not before.

israelis have to be dumbbells to vote for lapid.
9. bibi alwyas cuts its short
ian   (09.01.19)
enemies cannot be defeated with abibi or gantz as leaders. bibi always and i mean always cuts its short. this my be agreeable to haaretz pacifists, but it only emboldens Israel's enemies.Every encounters sees bibi do a limited response and then run to ceasefire to achieve quiet which is his namesake. that hezbollah and hamas increase their arsenals has no impact on him because bibi has overwhelming fear of being shot so he projects that onto the whole state in my opinion. this is wrong because Israel is resilient. Israelis will take it on the chin but the leadership from peres to olmert livni and even ehud barak would not go all out. bibi likewise.

as for gantz, he is a sit back general. ariel sharon he is not. he is the wrong general. you want a fighting general so far-kochavi may be a good one. incidentally Lieberman picked him over bibi's choice.

bibi and gantz will not lauch all out wars against anyone. Vote for shaked.

10. End Hezbollah now.
Sjoerd van der Velde ,   Hoorn Holland   (09.02.19)
To begin first,, exterminate/kill/destroy all the criminals of Hez/Lebanon.. They earned the death penalty/capital punishment a long time ago. The same goes for example for hamas and islamic djihad in the Gaza Strip and their masters and supporters, causing a direct danger for Israel and the rest of the free world. We can miss them as toothache.Israel had more than enough patience with (those) terrorists, since 1948 and now is the time for action and solution,even if any other country and people and the United Nations disagree.They had their chance, but did nothing, or only criticize Israel. Now is the time to serve, to protect and to defend the Jewish/Israeli people and the rest of our present, entire humankind and our planet Earth. This terror can happen anywhere and always on any spot on our planet, if nothing happens/will happen.
