So why is Israel killing dozens of innocent civilians. What is their intent? To eradicate the entire Arab race?
From what I have been able to see, Israel is not intentionally targeting innocent civilians. Hezbollah is placing it's artillery in the homes of civilians to launch attacks on Israel. I agree with the Israeli UN representative. Lebanon has been held hostage by religious extremism since the first war broke out in the 70s. Why would Hezbollah provoke Israel by killing and abducting Israeli soldiers ? That is the better question. On the surface it doesn't seem they have or had anything to gain.
Bullshit, they are obligated to disarm Hezbollah under the international law and according to a UN resolution. It's their fucking problem, if they can't do it they could have asked for international help to disarm Hezbollah, they could have requested the UN troops or military help from friendly arab countries or [gasp] Israel's help to get it done. What they can't do is sit on their muslim asses doing nothing while Hezbollah is shelling israeli towns and kidnapping israeli citizens and claim that it's not their fault, not their problem and not their responsibility. This good cop/bad cop (i.e. good goverment/bad Hezbollah/Hamas) scam is not fooling anybody.
Innocent civilians? Innocent civilians who elect Hezbollah representatives to 30% of their parliament? Innocent civilians who refuse to address the issue that they have armed militants in their country who are avowed to the destruction of one of their neighbors? Their own Prime Minister reacted angrily at notions that he should act to restrain Hezbollah. he was resentful that noone was trying to restrain Israel. Israel is responding to an attack by a highly armed faction dedicated to their extinction and protected by the governements of Lebanon and Syria. these innocent civilians need political leaders who will respect their innocence and to quit blaming innocent people trying to defend their homes and families.
I wonder why no one asks what's in the best interest of American people. Regardless of who's to blame, we've got nothing to win in this war, except oil at $100 and having to send more taxpayers money to Israel. And more arab hatred towards the US if we act clearly biased for Israel. I think most Americans don't care who's responsible for this war, the jews or the arabs, all we care is oil is going to $100, budget problems and more terrorists trying to kill americans. I don't think either that there are humanitarian reasons for supporting this war, as it all started with two Israeli soldiers being taken prisoners. Other than them, no other Israelis were under immediate threat. On the contrary, with this war, most of the casualties are civilians and civilian infrastructure. I have been a 100% Bush supporter even after the Iraq war, now I am starting to wonder if he genuinely cares for US citizens.
Today the Israeli troops continue to kick the crap out of King Nasturium and his Hezbollah lesbians. Really it is too bad when you consider that the whole thing happened because some idiots decided to kidnap two Israeli soldiers. Now most of Beirut is in shambles. I wonder if the average Lebanese person knows that their country was sacrificed for this purpose?
And more arab hatred towards the US if we act clearly biased for Israel. Are you saying that our foreign policy should be based on the sentiments of the arab street? Frankly I've been hearing this "arabs will not like you" argument for the last 5 years, why don't you muslim whores come up with something less absurd and pathetic. all we care is oil is going to $100 Oil price went from $20 to $70 during the last couple of years and it had nothing to do with israel but I don't remember you and other terrorist loving idiots bashing arabs. Oil barely moved after Israeli retaliation and all of a sudden it's all israel's fault. Besides if you're so sure that it's going to $100 - put your money where your fucking mouth is, buy oil futures and make a fortune.
I like Streamlinetrade. I also think that Israel, supposedly being the most civilized country in the middle east should act more civilized and measured, and learn to be more tolerant and try to get along with its neghbors. It seems to me that they like to retaliate a slap on the face with kicking punching and stabbing. And then conflict escalates out of control. If jews and arabs are all barbarians, then they all deserve to shoot each other to death. Great, so we can colonize the middle east with western/christian culture. Then we will have peace.
Hi doodoo you're right we shouldn't care about arab sentiment. I agree 100%. but we shouldn't care about jew sentiment either. it's not our fight. that's my point. second, what's the point of being a millionaire if the US is financially bankrupt and ravaged by crime (due to poverty) and terrorism. living in the US would be like living in a dirty 3rd world sh*thole.
