Israel Israel.... ?????!!!!! always playing the bad boy >>>> what a bad image Israel is portraying ???

Question

what do you think ????? Isaerl is murdering a nation ???? how can any anyone be that crazy ?????

I do not think that you should call me crazy ... what israel is murduering lebanon . And it seems that you all only read your news papers and you watch your own channels and that is all.... You need to read more about the side and check what they are saying... I am an american ... who has a point of view ...

terrorism is when a person takes over what is owned by another reason, biut defending yourself is when a person fights back to get what rightfully theirs. I see Israel as a nation that can not fit in the middel east because of it is aggrassive behavior and not only that olmart's cabint is hell bent over to prove that his cabint is strong .. that is why he is doing waht he is doing..

let us say, that Israel want the soldiers back and hazeballa responded let us trade , waht is wrong with that.. hazbe ala was waiting for the trade , becuase israel has over 10,000 prisoners in it's prison for more than 28 years ..????!!!! why can not a big nation like israel or as refferd to by one of our commentators " A Gaint" ACT LIKE A LEADER AND DO THE RIGHT THING FOR ONCE IN IT'S LIFE. we americans are embarssed that we are defending this littel boy ... if we are to fight terrorism , what israel is doing is not going to help one ounce. Bush said every nation has the right to defend it isslef, so is lebanon and palstine ...

Answer 1

Israel is simply acting like the bully that it is. This nation is so arrogant that it doesn't stop to think of the damage that is causing to so many people just because of two soldiers. The Lebanese people haven't done anything to deserve any of what is happening to them. I don't think anyone deserves that. World politics is so biased, that nobody seems to stand up and denounce the acts of violence that Israel is committing against the Lebanese people. I bet that if the coin was flipped the other way around, a lot of people would be complaining like crazy! I don't understand the double standard that the U.S goverment is demostrating. The killing of civilians and the destruction of a country that has no means to defend itself is terrorism no matter who tries to deny it.

Answer 2

What on EARTH are you talking about? Do you actually read the news or do you get your facts from the crazy old man who talks to himself in the corner booth at the local Hardee's???

Israel is doing nothing more than defending itself against the Palestinians...that's it. Israeli soldiers were kidnapped and murdered, and Israel took that as an attack on them. The bombings in Hezbollah are for the release of other prisoners. Since Hezbollah has chosen to fight back, Israel will make sure they are punished for their actions.

Unless you are whacked out of your mind or part of the Axis of Evil, you shouldn't attempt to take any other side.

Answer 3

Not really, they are just tired of these Muslim fanatics and their ways. You can back a dog only so far up in a corner before he comes out bitting and thats what Isreal is doing now. Remember your not there nor am I but you know who is there? The media and sometimes the media goes just one way man...trust me, there is a lot of good that they do to dispite what you've been told. Isreal is a very aggressive country and always has been but decades of fighting have made them this way, they cannot afford to be soft.

Answer 4

that's what i might choose to appreciate. and albeit if the worldwide needs to assist the genuine butcherers of the harmless then the worldwide can circulate root, propaganda-led Fools. it is unique inhabitants have been Pagans no longer Muslims, the Jews ran the Pagans out and claimed that land centuries in the previous Mohamed became into even born. Get Your data immediately eh?

Answer 5

Israel has no right to exist, simple, Hezbollah is making sure that non of the Israelis live in peace because they have killed the Palestinians and still killing and no one is saying anything to her and America is blessing the killing under the name of self defense , if Israelis wants to live move them to Europe of open a new state in America and move them there don't come and kick people out of their land to start your own land and when they fight for their right you call them a terrorists , Israel should be destroyed and I pray to god that Hezbollah success and win this war.........Isreal is going down.

Answer 6

Its about time both countries gave up on warfare n seek the negotiating table for solutions!

PPl here are utterly ignorant, no one ever see's the 10 yr old kid who gets killed by israeli tanks. guess terror is the only way to get zionists out of their american shell

Answer 7

Would you take a look at what you are writing? Look at it! Are you actually TRYING to impress upon us the depths of your ignorance, stupidity, and illiteracy? Get an education, and THEN come back and talk issues with the big people.

Answer 8

Changing the definition of terrorism doesn't change what Islam has done.

GIVE BACK THE SOLDIERS! STOP TRYING TO CONQUOR ALL OF US!

We'll go back to our lives and leave Islam alone then.

Stop kicking the giant and spitting on it, and it will go back to sleep. Follow Saudi Arabia's lead. They know the West well.

Answer 9

I'm with you...what they don't say is how Israel has bombarded lebanon before the troops were abducted

Answer 10

first,if you think israels crazy then you are! and second, read this:

If you rely on the Washington Post, the New York Times and the Associated Press for your news, it would be easy to get the impression that Israel is out of control – wantonly killing Lebanese and Palestinian civilians and provoking a larger conflict in the Middle East.

The lead headline in the Post yesterday, for instance, read: ''Israel intensifies assault on Beirut.''

Of course, if striking directly at the terrorists who launched hundreds of rockets at Israeli civilians in the previous three days and who struck inside Israel's border, kidnapping two soldiers, means assaulting Beirut, I guess that would be accurate.

But Israel is hardly targeting Beirut. It is targeting Hezbollah, a terrorist organization in league with al-Qaida and sponsored by Syria and Iran – a terrorist group that is killing and maiming Israeli citizens by the score.

Here's the way the third paragraph of the Post story reads: ''In a war that has witnessed an escalation each day, the asymmetrical nature of the conflict was laid bare Saturday: For each attack by Hezbollah since it captured two Israeli soldiers in a cross-border raid, Israel has inflicted a far greater price. It has systematically dismantled the country's infrastructure, displaced thousands of residents and instilled a new sense of foreboding and fear in the now-deserted streets of this brash, confident city still shadowed by the legacy of Lebanon's 15-year civil war.''

What message is any thinking person supposed to take away from such an account? Israel is out of control.

But a few points need to be made about such commentary disguised as news reporting:


Hezbollah has been operating freely in Lebanon as a de facto government for years – even after Syria withdrew from the country. The government of Lebanon has done little or nothing to take control of entire regions of the country, including its international airport, in which Hezbollah has set up a military infrastructure with one goal in mind – attacking Israel. How is Israel supposed to respond to attacks directed from those regions?

Israel has the military might to destroy Lebanon in a day – an hour, 30 minutes. Has it occurred to anyone that the Jewish state is demonstrating incredible restraint in focusing its wrath on only Hezbollah targets?

Stories are quick to emphasize the death and injury toll of Lebanese and Palestinians, but you have to scour the reports to learn that hundreds of Israeli civilians have been hurt and killed in rocket attacks targeted at towns and cities in the Jewish state.

How should a civilized nation respond to terrorist attacks within its borders? How did the U.S. respond after Sept. 11, 2001? Should civilized nations respond with force only equal to that which was used by its enemies? Or is it legitimate and proper for civilized countries to respond with overwhelming force – to discourage future attacks, wipe out those responsible and deter future attacks?
Again, it is as if my colleagues – as well as the United Nations, the European leadership and much of the rest of the world – believe Israel is the real problem in the Middle East.

Nothing could be further from the truth. Blaming Israel for the current violence in the region is the equivalent of blaming the U.S. for the terrorist attacks of September 11 and its response to them.

Let's review the key developments in this war:

On July 12, Hezbollah launched Katyusha rockets and mortar fire at the Israeli town of Shlomi. The same day, the terrorist group boasted of seizing two Israeli soldiers in the Israeli town of Shtula – killing eight other soldiers.

Then, and only then, did Israel strike back by bombing roads, bridges, power stations and other Hezbollah strongholds in southern Lebanon.

Hezbollah then began a much wider rocket assault on Israeli towns, including the port city of Haifa, some 20 miles south of the Lebanese border. It was in this series of attacks that wounded more than 300 Israeli civilians, while killing at least a dozen.

I suppose there are those who think Israel should only respond with like force. Israel, a tiny nation with 1 percent of the population of its enemies in the Mideast, cannot afford to trade corpses. And, even if it could, it would not be good national security policy.

Israel's enemies should be grateful this American of Lebanese and Syrian heritage is not calling the shots in Jerusalem. Israel finds itself in this crisis because it listened too closely to the voices of appeasement from around the world – including from my colleagues in the international establishment media.

Evacuating from southern Lebanon and Gaza and other territories Israel conquered in hard-fought combat with no concessions from its enemies was bad policy. Israel encouraged the attacks it is now enduring. It's long past time for Israel to draw a hard line in the sand and punish severely those who cross it.
