They Killed a total of 56 innocent people, 35 of them children. And they so no remorse? no sorrow, I mean seriously have they no shame?! have they no feelings of emiotion or sadness, for all they innocent children, those life they had just ended?! I mean what have the men women and children of Lebanon done to deserve this? This is Murder what Israel are doing! And The UN is like "Go ahead, you give a crap about innocent Human life".

Why is the UN and the EU just letting this happen?

How do you feel about Israel's action? Do you Feel like the rest of the countries in the world are just letting israel do what they want?

Will this lead to ww3?

In the past, in order to illustrate American’s economic powerful, it used to say “When US sneezes, the rest of the world has got a pneumonia”

Now it uses to say “When US sneezes, the rest of the world has a vaccination and the vaccine is provided by China”.

How do you feel about that ?

Despite all those pictures of small children being pulled from the bombed building at Qana, Blair still has not issued a basic call for a temporary or permanent cessation of fighting. This leaves the UK diplomatically out on limb (with the US) as being one of the few nations not to.

Given the lack of diplomacy that the Israeli government have historically always shown, this is a green light for them to continue showing disregard for the civilian population, and as already seen on the TV - the Red Cross and UN observers.

Strong nations do not retaliate against terrorists by losing a sense of humanity. The equivalent scenario would have been if the British had shelled areas in Ireland where they knew IRA cells were based - they did not.

I think Blair's lack of moral leadership and non-representation of the majority of British people against the conflict, is potentially leaving us susceptible to more suicide bombers in the future

A huge rise in immigration from eastern Europe next year could cause chaos in schools, hospitals and welfare services, according to a leaked report.

It also warns that ministers may be forced to abandon their refusal to grant council houses and welfare benefits to new arrivals who do not work, creating an extra "pull factor" attracting further immigrants.

The arrival of hundreds of thousands of new arrivals is already pushing down wages for workers, with potentially "serious implications"

ADVERTISEMENT
for social discord, the document says.
It reveals that government departments have been ordered to draw up emergency plans to deal with pressure on public services from an expected "step change" in immigration levels when Romania and Bulgaria join the EU next year.

The report, written by junior Home Office Minister Joan Ryan and called Migration from Eastern Europe: Impact On Public Services And Community Cohesion, was leaked to the Mail on Sunday.

Ms Ryan says many more English teachers will be needed to deal with a huge rise in the number of eastern European children unable to speak the language.

East European patients are also already "blocking" hospital beds because they are ineligible for social care and benefits if they leave.

Meanwhile, towns and cities where large numbers of new immigrants have settled are already demanding millions of pounds of extra money to cope.

The document, marked "restricted", is dated July 19, the day after Ms Ryan submitted another report saying that 45,000 "undesirable" criminal migrants from Romania and Bulgaria may settle in Britain next year.

The number of immigrants to Britain since Poland and seven other east European countries joined the EU two years ago is now estimated at 600,000, compared with the Government's original prediction of between 5,000 and 13,000 a year. Ministers expect this number to rise by up to another 140,000 next year.

blind to the fact that Hezbollah have been attacking and MURDERING innocent, civilian Israelis since it's birth in 1982?

Hezbollah and the people of south Lebanon (who support and encourage Hezbollah) are not innocent victims; they have been provoking this response for TWENTY years. i am not an advocate of war, but you have to know when enough is enough.

I do not mean to insult Muslims by this question.

I am not religious. The violence in the world makes
it hard for me to make a choice.

I am not much different from any other human being
on our planet.

I hope, wish, and desire the same things all human
beings want.

Can anyone here help me with some rational information?

Best Wishes and Good Forture to you.

I recently read an article quoting housing related biz accounted for %16 of our economy. While this is looking like it is going to crash, which will cause severe economic consequences. That is not the scariest thing. What is that %16 of our economy is building houses. That should be less than half a percent in a healthy economy. So the portent is even more ominious than the coming crash in the housing market. How can anybody talk about a healthy economy when such a large proportion of our economy is building, mortgages and realitors? Do you think our economy is healthy? Are you seeing more job opportunities. Where exactly are all these jobs created the Gov keeps bragging about?

Its really untolerable to see the children dying in Lebanon. All my curses to Israel and U.S. for denying a ceasefire.. I call Rice a *****, she doesnt understand how much innocent people are killed in Lebanon especially the children. 29 children were killed instantly by an Israeli bomb. My hatred towards Israel is growing that I feel i may explode. Why isn't the world leaders doing nothing to stop this ******* act of Israel? Shame on all world leaders.

Whats ur opinion ?

Has anyone else notice how the American government has a hand in every war around at the moment? The "War on Terrorism" in Iraq, Israel's attacks on the West Bank and Lebanon. If America continues these trends, they are going to push our modern world into an all out war and therefore destroy the Middle-East and everything they stand for.
