Syria vows to strike back at Israel for Imad Mughniyeh’s killing in Damascus.
i know that israel now is having a very difficult and pressuring days.
there are missles thrown at us from gaza to sderot,
people in that part of israel can not have a normal life.
and every day people get hurt there.
and now there is the accusation of the Mughniyeh killing.
syria and nasrallah say they will start a war.
what do you think?
Do you think there is a solution to this story.
i love my country, but i must say that it is very difficult living here.
you never know what will happen and when.
what do you think about the situation?

Hi liranlgo, It is very sad but this is the story of the human race. We always seek revenge, and it only leads to more killing. I feel that this is what will happen here once again. They will probably seek to kill government or military leaders in Israel. The problems will not be solved by fighting. Blessings.

Well I would think you would be used to it by now since it's been going on since the beginning of time. I would not want to be living anywhere in the Middle East and I truly feel bad for you guys because as a citizen there is not much you can do except for try to stay safe. Iran will soon be pointing it's bombs at you, then at us. I would get out of there if you can!

i appreciate your concern jane.
but you can never really get used to a situation like that.
in israel we have our bad days and our good ones.
we function and have fun like people other countries usually.
yes it would be easier to live in another country.
but this is my country, the only one for me.
i love this country, and can not see myself anywhere else.

Liran, this is indeed a sad reality. I do not know all of it but this much I know whatever is going on is not right and it's been a while so please stop it all! The saga of betrayal, hatred, revenge, power...is perpetual but I think ppl are going overboard.
All we want is PEACE and HAPPINESS at any cost for the sufferers are the common people and they are beyond this animosity.

i wish the same things that you do mimpi
but it can not be solved this easily
it is a long story of people that are fighting for the right to live on their land
and are surrounded by other countries that say that it is not their land, and all people of that religion should be erased.
i simplified the story but it is a very complicated story
i really want peace just like you between all
but for now i settle for not starting a war in the next few years:)

For 60 years Israel has been in the middle and she is strong. And I see her surviving. I don't know if there will be a war but I Do know that Israel will be ready to defend herself.I can't imagine how hard it is over there. I wish you good health and happiness.Shalom.

No, I guess maybe you can't get used to it. I thought if you are born in to it, it just becomes a way of life. I have never had to live with such circumstances, but if I did, I would move in a heartbeat even if it was my country. Your country needs to protect you, not start wars. If your country can't protect you, then you should start thinking of where else you can live that's safe for you and your family. The only other solution is to stay and fight for what you beleive in. It's bad over there and I would be freaking if I lived in Isreal knowing what Iran thinks of Jewish people. Why do they hate you so much? Why do they want to wipe you off the face of the earth? It must be scary knowing that they want this. God Bless you.

the situation is very fluid and volatile. anything can happen especially that emotions are high. both countries have history of animosity between each other. it is difficult where it can lead. i hope itdoesnotescalate to full war. the people of both countries can't afford to have war.
