whoo hoo!
I just saw newscasts from Lebanon, Iran, and Syria. You think the news of the west is myopic?, you got to see these outright liars. The y actually ran a story saying they (Hezbollah, the 'heroes'), downed an Israeli F-16, and took the pilots into custody. Then, when there was no evidence to support the claim, the story, instead of being retracted, just "disappeared".
As I have been watching the middle east percolate my entire life, I am always still amazed how it is, 'in the minds of the Arabs', always Israel's fault, when Israel responds to attacks by them(Arabs). Egypt got schooled in '67, Iraq got schooled when Saddam was building his Hitler-esque long-range cannon.
MY GOD! Are these people any better than the idiots in the U.S.
who actually believe the propaganda that the U.S. is a Democracy?

Well since you asked....

Screw weapons of mass destruction, the REAL reason we're in Iraq is because of Iran. Iran is surrounded by Iraq and Afghanistan.. coincidence? I think not.

We were trying to crush Iran without direct confrontation. Iran is backing N. Korea, and China, the puppet master is backing Iran. The big question is what does China have to gain from all of this?

So we already have all of that going on. Toss in Israel who is surrounded by hostile countries who all want to see them wiped off the face of the map and Hezbollah not to mention Palestine and it's a bloody nightmare.
Oops and have we all forgotten about Osama Bin Laden?
And the U.N.? What the heck are they good for anyways?

If this isn't World War III I would be shocked.

Israeli prime minister Baruk (at the time) offered to Arafat, in the presence of president Clinton, to essentially return to the pre-1967 war borders. Exceptions were that most of Jerusalem would be retained, but not all, and a buffer zone between the Palestinians and Israel would be maintained for security's sake. All he wanted in return is that Arafat's Palestinian Liberation Organization would stop fighting for more claims against Israel--Arafat said no.

Palestinians have abundantly claimed it is all or nothing, they either reclaim the whole land or they are not satisfied. Iraq, under Saddam, was supporting the suicide bombers by paying their families if their sons (and a few daughters) killed Jews. Iran, in recent months was telling whomever would listen that their terrorism support was to drive away the "Zionists" (Jews in Insrael) and that their development of a nuclear weapon was "a gift from Allah" to help them drive out the Jews.

Lebanon used to be a predominantly Christian country, touted to be the "Switzerland of the Middle East", in their neutrality of the problems of the neighbors. As with this conflict, Lebanon did not control (quite likely could not control) the militant Palestinians that moved to their country because, unlike literal millions of Arab Palestinians inside Israel today, they could not stand to live under a Jewish government. There in Lebanon, they could not stand to live under a Christian government. Syria invaded and toppled the Christian government, making it safer for militant Palestinians to stay militant.

Now Palestinians capture some Israeli soldiers (Gaza and Lebanon). Supposedly, these citizen soldiers are going to be experiencing torture and intimidation that had nothing to do with their personal behavior, they were just being used to taunt and torment Israel. When the stories that the two in Lebanon were going to be transported to Syria and then even to Iran, then Israel had to stop it--they closed the airport, they cut off the roads. All Hizbollah had to do was return two soldiers and Lebanon would be left alone. Palestinians did not do it--it didn't matter that Israel was trashing Lebanon, the country is not theirs so it does not matter. Palestinians like to park their weapons beside residences, schools, and hospitals because Israel is not fond of collateral damage--killing innocent people. Nonetheless, Palestinians are indiscriminately shooting literal hundreds of missiles at Israeli cities, not military bases, cities. It is horrible for Israel to kill noncombatants in Gaza or Lebanon, but not a problem to kill noncombatant Israelis.

Guess who I think is at fault here?

Isreal is defending its country. Lebanon is suffering because they cannot control Hezbollah. In the end Lebanon will be paying for its weakness.

this situation has spun beyond right and wrong. Who do you blame? Is Israel defending itself against known enemies with an avowed charter to destroy it and no intention to negotiate (of course supported by Iran), or is it an occupying colonial force using excessive force to maintain its headlock on power?

Will Arab nations and islamic groups ever choose a path besides warfare and miltary attacks against israel to try to achieve their stated goals (which are ummmm....what exactly besides killing jews)?

In any case, every day this goes on the clock gets turned back for the region.

hmm, that's hard, you know why? cuz I ain't never killed no one, I mean if I have a prob I just call the police. I look it on a personal leval, as a man, as a person. I wouldn't go blow up a city because my sister was kidnapped and the captors are there. Revenge, is evil, and I don't believe in it. I wANT peace really I do, and everytime a bomb falls and children are killed my goal, my vision is... Blown away, destroyed.
