A continuing conflict might give the U.S. a better excuse to invade Iran

Because Israel is doing what the US should have done a long time ago
becouse hamas and hezbolla are not gone yet pantywaiste
Because the US adminstration is full of warmongers

Because Hezbollah is an enemy of the United States and other civilized countries. Don't you remember the 241 marines (in Lebanon for a peacekeeping mission) killed by a truck bomb while sleep in their barracks in 1983? And the kidnapping and torturing to death of U.S. Marine Colonel William R. Higgins and the CIA Station Chief in Beirut, William Francis Buckley, and of the kidnapping of at least 30 other Westerners between 1982 and 1992, including the American journalist Terry Anderson, British journalist John McCarthy, the Archbishop of Canterbury's special envoy Terry Waite and Irish citizen Brian Keenan. And the bombing of the U.S. Embassy in Beirut on September 20, 1984, which killed 20 Lebanese and two American soldiers; and of carrying out the 1985 hijacking of TWA Flight 847.

On TWA flight 847 they discovered American Navy diver, Robert Stethem, among the passengers. They beat him, shot him in the right temple, and dumped his body out of the plane onto the tarmac.

You should be grateful Israel is doing what the US should have done a long time ago. Wiping out a vile terrorist group.

"Because some things simply have to run their course."

Sure, like bloodshed and destruction and death. Yep. Sure. And we wonder why we're on the brink of chaos and destruction.
by patch22us on Mon Jul 17, 06 2:44pm [+]

It is amazing to me sometimes how some "liberals" seem to forget who the enemy is.

I'm glad I am a liberal who hasn't forgotten who the enemy is.

I forgot... Hezbollah, a group financed and armed by Iran right from the very start. In case you forgot, Iran is a sworn enemy of the United States. A country that held Americans hostage. A country where every week they still chant death to America... etc.

You're no Liberal Fiddle :) Just take a look at your favorites list and the comments next to the Conservatives on this site. :) I could to into it here, but I don't want you to get all upset with me again and remove me from your favorites list. Then add me on. The remove me. Then add me on. Then remove me. Then add me on again. IC_pimp


You're only Liberal in name. Deny it if you will but you are Conservative because YOU believe that Conservatives will protect Israel. Ha! Hang out with the Republican echelon for a while and you'll see how anti-Semetic they are!
by patch22us on Mon Jul 17, 06 2:59pm [+]

And Fiddle, ALL of the terrorist groups have said they don't hate Americans, they hate that our government blindly supports Israel, right or wrong. So.........

Sorry, it was rude of me to say you were not a Liberal. I take it back.

The government of Israel has launched bombings of civilian targets in Lebanon, and continues the slaughter of our neighbours in Gaza with weapons, funding and political support from the United States.
The sanitized images in global Corporate and State media do not really convey the depth of these atrocities. Collective punishment of civilians in revenge for military actions is universally understood to be an act of genocide and a war crime - what can we say of a Government that engages systematically in ethnic cleansing aimed at "purging" the Middle East of "Arab cockroaches"?

On Wednesday, Israel dropped a quarter-ton bomb on a home in Gaza City, purposefully, in order to assassinate a member of the Palestinian resistance. The bombing killed a couple and seven of their children, ages 4-18, and injured 34 people.

The two-week long invasion of Gaza continues.
Resistance to it, by any means necessary, also continues.

People in their homes and neighborhoods have no other option but to fight to the death, engaged in superhuman efforts to defend their communities and to repel the Israeli invaders. But what about the leaders in the White House and in the comfortable offices of the Israeli occupation regime who order the slaughters, who sustain the genocide, who pursue and initiate every provocation - what fuels their commitment to endless butchering?

Will it take an Armageddon, just as the religious supporters of George Bush are praying for, to stop this insanity?
by Steelhamster on Mon Jul 17, 06 3:16pm [+]

I'm just a little confused here. Israel is the culprit in Gaza and Lebanon? Gees. Aren't we ignoring the first cause here? Wasn't Israel attacked before action in either case? Indeed.

It just boggles the mind to listen to the terrorist sympathizers these days. Every single one of them blames Israel for the actions which followed intolerable provocations by terrorists.

Blaming Israel for striking at the perpetrators of violence toward Israelis and the kidnapping of its citizens is just plain wrong.

On the other hand, blaming the victim is as old as humanity.
by xxxxxxxx on Mon Jul 17, 06 4:23pm [+]

Hmmm so 7 Israeli dead soldiers is worth exactly HOW many civilian lives Griff?

I understand Israel is pissed at Hezzbolah, an organisation sponsored by Syria.

Why are children a valid target?

Why attack a country that is emerging from civil war, and not say Iran and Syria, Israels real enemies.

by Steelhamster on Mon Jul 17, 06 4:56pm [+]

Steel... you always conveniently forget the numbers killed by the palestinians and Hezbollah. You also forget the fact that palestinian terror groups have committed terrorist attacks against your own country. You also always forget who started the conflict.

I can list the number of attacks your favorite terror groups like Hamas, Hezbollah, and the PLO have committed. Pretty much all of which were directed SOLELY at civilian targets unlike Israel which tries very hard to avoid killing civilians. This is why when they bombed the foreign ministry of the PA, they did it at night to avoid killing innocents.

"repel the Israeli invaders. But what about the leaders in the White House and in the comfortable offices of the Israeli occupation regime who order the slaughters, who sustain the genocide, who pursue and initiate every provocation - what fuels their commitment to endless butchering?"

Excuse me, but that is the uttermost piece of crap I have seen you post. Israel is trying to get back its kidnapped soldier. Hammas could have avoided all this by not kidnapping him. There is no "slaughter", no genocide. To argue that shows you have no understanding of what the term means. It is also anti-semitic to wrongly accuse a people who have suffered more from genocide than any other of doing this. If you want to talk about "comfortable offices" then ask the PLO, Hamas, and others in the PA why they are so rich when the rest suffer. Where did Arafat get his billions? Israel would be more than happy to help the palestians if they would opt for peace instead of war every time.

Just admit it steel, you hate Israel, you will lie about it and do whatever you can to bring about its destruction. Of course, you aren't anti-semitic, but have you ever considered what would happen to the Jews there if Israel were defeated? They certainly wouldn't be treated as well as Israel treats those in Gaza. For example, Israel offers to bring in medical supplies even during a conflict. Israel even collected taxes on behalf of the PA and gave it to the PA before Hamas came in.

'Just admit it steel, you hate Israel, you will lie about it and do whatever you can to bring about its destruction. Of course, you aren't anti-semitic...'

An oxymoron of monumental proportions.

You owe Steel an apology, one can't hate Israel and not be an anti-semite at the same time so stop speaking with a forked tongue Fiddle.

There is nothing in Steel's perfectly reasonable observation to infer that he is 'anti' anything except the deaths of innocent children.
by Ken_from_Dublin on Mon Jul 17, 06 6:34pm [+]

Ken is right. I don't like Israel and I'm not anti-semetic. You can disapprove of a country and its policies and not be anti_________. People parade out the anti-semetic line to squash opinions.

You really are on hallucinogenic drugs arn't you Fiddle or just blinded by your Brain dead Government. You want to talk about terrorists and state Sponsored terrorism then look closer to home.
by isay on Tue Jul 18, 06 3:32am [+]

Because a cease fire will only halt the fighting temporarily. It will start right back up in a matter of time. We're dealing with terrorist organizations that will not stop until the "infidels" are all dead. And they will sacrifice anyone (including innocent civilians on both sides) to accomplish this.
by Grumpy_Person on Tue Jul 18, 06 5:00am [+]

If Israel is really interested in fighting Hezbolloh, then why don't they attack Hezbolloh, instead of civilian targets? Of course, they are making the case that everything in Lebanon is somehow associated with Hezbolloh. Israel even blew up a lighthouse. I'm sure that was an important terrorist facility.

yes, it's called crawford texas
by neothe1 on Sat Jul 22, 06 3:43pm [+]

Neothe finally admitted tonight that Bush knew in advance of the 9/11 attacks!

Check this out on ballot 97740! -

'ah, another slip. before you said he executed them. now you just say he had advance warning (which everyone knows)'

'...which everyone knows!' -Neothe!

You have just made a faux pas of monumental proportions!

Like how did he have advance warning Neothe???

Answer that please!!!

You have just conceded that BUSH KNEW - something which Bush and his administration vehemently deny!

I merely stated that he knew they were coming - that didn't mean I didn't also believe he knew they were coming because he was complicit in the planning and execution of the attacks!

So why the Hell if Bush knew that America was about to be attacked - as you have conceded - that rather than make every effort that was humanly possible to protect his people as President of the United States he preferred instead to read a story to school children about a goat in a kindergarden school in Florida on the morning of these attacks that he knew were coming if he wasn't complicit in the attacks NEOTHE???

Answer that! ->
by Ken_from_Dublin on Sat Jul 22, 06 7:11pm [+]

Ken you have truly lost all respect from everyone on this site with your ludicrious and continual insistance on conspiracy theories, you and your buddies from your conspiracy boards are a bunch of jokes.
by jappy on Mon Jul 31, 06 9:28am [+]

Because those born in Lebanon are nothing but a bunch of terrorists & their entire country should be bombed to wipe out these terrorists

GOOD JOB ISREAL!
by justice101 on Tue Aug 08, 06 12:13am [+]

Good Job Hezbollah!!

Hiding behind your own population and towns. Wearing civilians clothings so you would increase the chance that your own civilians would get killed and use it for your own purpose.

While the Israel military are willing to stand out in the open and in uniforms so you wont confused them with civilans.
