We're told Iran is supporting Hizbollah with funds and weapons. Are these weapons crossing US controlled Iraq by land? Do they sneak across Turkey to Syria and get to Lebanon that way? Is it possible they are delivered by air? I hear so much about the Iran connection in the news, but there seem to be significant geographic barriers between Iran and Lebanon.

This is hypocritical. Pres. Clinton had us in Desert Storm in the early 1990's for no good reason and we even had not been attacked on our own soil (9/11)- but when a republican stands up for our safety, freedom and rights. (rights to oil- which is in YOUR best interest.) He is met with half brained and biased press whom create zombies (regular viewing audiences) to attack his good efforts. We even got a tax cut for the poor through our Republican Bush for the first time in decades.(tens of years) "Democratic" Clinton did not give the poor a tax cut yet he took us to war in that region! Has hate for hate sakes filled the average US citizen? The lying movie guy. Farrenhieght 9/11 please tell me you must have seen the rebuttle. It is called FarrienHYPE 9/11 and shows all the lies that 1st movie spread. I hope you are not one of the gulliable well meaning people who got bad information and is running on lies dividing this good country and all of it's efforts. You and we deserve better.

what is the current relationship between Lebanon and Israel?
I mean, besides bad.
what happened before the conflict of 2006 that set off Lebanon/Israel?
Also, is it true that the U.S. is sending about 16 billion to Israel yearly, and if so, why?

I am so disgusted right now, I am speechless...Again, you've been warned. Do NOT goto the link if you love kittens so much, you would be appalled at what the story said, as well as the pictures. It is basically about "crushing" small animals and making videos out of it for sicko nutcases to watch. Very upsetting...I wish I never came up on that page, I was looking for info on how St. Bernard's are rasied and killed for food in China, and this link showed up on the serach engine. Warning one more time before you decide to clink on the link. http://www.snopes.com/photos/gruesome/crushvideo.asp
Snopes.com has basically called this an "undertimed" fact, but there is a lot of info in there which would lead anyone to believe otherwise. I did NOT open the pictures underneath the ones on the site, I didn't even want to imagine it. What the hell is wrong with some people??!! I can not believe this actually happens...but my guess is there is sickos all over the world. This needs to be stopped

I don't know who he is. I keep seeing his face on the news. He appears to have psycotic body language. He also doesn't seem to realize he's white.
Seeing as I don't know who he is, I could be mistaken.
What did he do? and
Why is he trying to get out of whatever he did?

People think the war started over kidnapping 2 soldiers.
did the war that was on 1998 on lebanon was abt 2 soldiers too.
or is it all about extending their colonialism and killing innoncents.

When Hezbollah caught spies underground and israel bombarded them with rockets they say muslims are terroist and israel is defending against itself.

So what you guys think!

I was watching the ABC news on TV the other night and was intrigued with the American angle on the war. Media coverage in Ireland and England is very strongly condemning the Isrealis and reporting on the amount of deaths of innocent Lebonese people. The American media is obviously on the Isrealis side. How do normal American people feel about this?
