#1 Dear Mr. El Baradei: Please accept the following short historical recap of the 19 day Yom Kippur conflict of 1973 with best wishes:

The war began with a massive and successful Egyptian crossing of the Suez Canal during the first three days, after which they dug in, settling into a stalemate. The Syrians coordinated their attack on the Golan Heights to coincide with the Egyptian offensive and initially made threatening gains against the greatly outnumbered defenders. Within a week, Israel recovered and launched a four-day counter-offensive, driving deep into Syria. To relieve this pressure, the Egyptians went back on the offensive, but were decisively defeated; the Israelis then counterattacked at the seam between two Egyptian armies, crossed the Suez Canal, and advanced southward and westward in over a week of heavy fighting. An October 22 United Nations-brokered ceasefire quickly unraveled, with each side blaming the other for the breach. By 24 October, the Israelis had improved their positions considerably and completed their encirclement of Egypt's Third Army. This development prompted superpower tension, but a second ceasefire was imposed cooperatively on October 25 to end the war. At the conclusion of hostilities, Israeli forces were 40 kilometres (25 mi) from Damascus and 101 kilometres (63 mi) from Cairo.

Hezbollah's strength lies in its spirit + dedication to God + Islam, notsomuch in its weapons.

#6 Mr. Elbardi, what will your stance be if Hezbollah or Hamas attacks Israel? Just as I though. No outrage? And you wouldn't mind at all.

#8 Wow how many times do they have to be defeated? I would not worry to much about the Egyptian Air Force, they seem to disappear in 48 hours.

#9 #6 Mr. Elbardi, what will your stance be if Hezbollah or Hamas attacks Israel?

Maybe I should have said: "When are you going to acknowledge Hamas' ongoing attacks on Israel?"

#10 Bring forth the plans for again, annexation of Gush Katif. If the smuggling continues and this becomes unmanageable, take that and the Sinai too. You own that land anyways - no reason to allow these punks to determine your sovereignty. Bless Yerusalem.
