It is stupid for Lebanese to fight each other...May 13th, 2008 - 10:15:54

BUT IT IS INHUMAN to supply the warring factions more ammo. Saudies, zionist entity and US have been supplying arms ans ammo to Jumbladt forces, also Sa'ad Hariri's forces. THAT IS WHY THOSE THUGS ARE NOR TERRORISTS!!

But HizbAllaah run hospitals, do lots of other social work, help feed the poor in Lebanon, do help building Lebanon are declared terrorists by terrorist regomes of the world. Those very regimes supply ammo to these thugs.

shame! shame! shame!

The US and Israel are finally getting the desired outcome of their plot, a foot in Lebanon to help the Lebanese military defeat Hezbollah so Israel can conquer Lebanon. The PM of Lebanon is a fool to allow Bush and Israel turn the Lebanese people against each other to weaken the country for Israeli or foreign control. If the Lebanese people can't see this exact same thing happening in Iraq and the consequences, they deserve exactly what they will get as a result of US help in Lebanon.

Hezbollah probably does do good things, so why all the rest of the bad things to counteract the good they have done?

By the way, Israel does not need to takeover Lebanon and never will if it is not so highly threatened by the extreme elements of desecration.

Everyone needs a sanctuary he and she can call home. There is no other place for Jews or Palestinians, though history is fraught with all kinds of claims.

Work it out, or wipe your selves out, holocausts may be the last chapter forever lost in history.

Great, all we need is to get involved in another war. And for what? Control of middle east oil and fill the oil company coffers, support the military industrial complex, or so the Israelis can sleep better at night. Or maybe a combination of the three.

And this from the vacuous boy-Emperor who spends more on weapons of nukular mass destruction than all the rest of the world combined:

“I don't see how how you can have a society with Hezbollah armed up the way they are,” Bush told the London-based BBC Arabic channel.

As Bush offered to help the Lebanese Army start a proxy war with Iran for Israel’s sake.

Bush --- just doing his little part to begin WWIII.

Bush --- 'Successfully starting WWIII from 2003 on --- one country at a time'

What was the Summer 2006 offensive by the IDF? Israel wants to steal some more Arab land like they did in 1948 with their ethnic cleansing of Palestine. They want the Litani River in southern Lebanon. Hizbullah are the only ones who put Lebanon first!

'This 'should send a signal to everybody that they are a destabilizing force,' Bush noted...'
After almost eight LONG years of dealing with the 'Idiot-Emperor' it is all too obvious who is the true 'destabilizing force' on this planet.

I wish Bush would shut up. He has effectively destroyed the American image and for worse the world economy and peace. I can not believe that he has the nerve to still speak his broken English about other countries destabilizing the world. The ironic thing is that Bush administration has vital interest in the Middle East, from 6000 miles away, but the regional countries must shut up and let this war monger government get his way every time.

The Lebanese Army must be thrilled considering how much help Bush has been to the US Armed Forces.
