I find it somewhat disgusting how the UN is turning a blind eye to all the harmful things that Israel is doing in the Middle East. It is already bad enough that Israel is in foreign land, but must they attack every single Islam country in Asia? Before WWII, Israel didn't even belong to the Jews, the UN just gave it to them because they felt bad about the Jews hardships in Germany and the Jews were crying for a state of their own. thus, the Arab and Jewish conflict began. How can they just drop a group of people who probably wouldn't have gotten along with Muslims in the first place? Europe has already proven to the world that they are terrible at dealing with cutting up land and calling it a country. Look at the mess that Africa is in, and all of it is because Europe forged a group of people into one little land and called it say, Nigeria. They can not do that, these people were in tribes and they had enemies. How can you force enemies into one country and expect them to get along?

I do not want anyone to think that I am anti-Semitic, because I am Jewish myself. I just disagree with Zionism and the things that we are doing to these people...

I also think that people need to take this from the perspective of Jews who are now living in Israel. Must Jews oppose the war.

After seeing and reading the “western” media, I can truly understand how many people can be so misinformed and misguided about the history and present situation of the middle east.

The only drawback is that now we all have a chance to correct what has been spoon fed to us through the internet, but I guess many people would rather be safe with “what they have been told for so long” than to have to face “what is the true situation”

Israel has answered your question as follows: after 9/11:
"We killed them out of a certain naive hubris. Believing with absolute certitude that now, with the White House, the Senate, and much of the American media in our hands, the lives of others do not count as much as our own..." —Ari Shavat. Reproduced in the New York Times, May 27th, 1999

"I want to tell you something very clear, don't worry about American pressure on Israel, we, the Jewish people control America, and the Americans know it." —Ariel Sharon to Shimon Peres, October 3rd, 2001, as reported on Kol Yisrael radio.

We all heard about Iran, Iraq, Taliban, Hamas, Osama Bin laden, El Quada, Hezbollah, etc. in the aftermath of the tragic 9/11 – these names would have been totally alien to us before then. 9/11 was immediately blamed on the Arabs on flimsy planted evidence before any proper investigations were conducted. There are so many articles and websites that state that 9/11 is yet another false flag operation against the Arabs with strong Israeli involvement. Links to sites are available.

In the onset of WWII, the US was dragged into WWII by the Zionists to side with Great Britain against Germany, the country where the Zionists were residing in at that time in exchange for a Jewish state in Palestine. This information was brand new to me.
http://www.sweetliberty.org/issues/wars/wwi.htm
http://www.sweetliberty.org/issues/israel/freedman.htm

The real problem in the middle east began in 1948 when Palestine was under British occupation. The British Mandate and the Balfour declaration “gave” parts of the Palestinian land to Israel to form in response to the Zionist movement so that finally an Israeli state could be established on occupied land. The Jews had been expelled from over 100 locations before they were “given” Palestine.
http://www.biblebelievers.org.au/expelle...

For Israel, this was not enough. The Zionist “dream” was to have a state with borders between the Al Fourat and Nile rivers. Israel then began it’s ethnic cleaning of the Palestinians driving out of their land, forbidding their return back to their homeland. The Deir Yassin, Sabra & Shatila massacres are evidence of the ethnic cleansing done by Israel.

Next, Israel went on to invade neighboring countries, Syria, Lebanon and Egypt – never conforming to the UN resolutions passed to this date to return all occupied land back.

Israel throughout history has been conducting false flag operations against the US (in particular) to set up the Arabs and begin wars with their neighboring Arab countries to achieve their cause / agenda dragging the US in the middle of all this.– Check the sources below: USS Liberty and the Lavon affair and others:

The UN turning a blind eye: Please read some history. The UN has been in southern Lebanon for 25 years to prevent exactly what is happening today. Do you really expect Israel to "trust them" for another 25 years? How many rockets has Hezbollah fired? Those are the rockets the U.N. has been there to prevent.

Israel has occupied Lebanon in the past. In the 1990s, the U.N. agreed to prevent an arms build-up if Israel disengaged from Lebanon. Israel agreed and left their security in the hands of the U.N. Now they are suffering the consequences.

Israel disengaged from Gaza last year and trusted the "international community" to guard the Egypt/Gaza border. The international community couldn't handle it and abandoned their post after only a short time. As soon as Israel disengaged, the Palestinians started firing rockets into Israel and anarchy ensued in the strip.

The U.N. is a joke. Israel cannot rely on the U.N. for their security. Israel cannot agree to a ceasefire until multi-national forces with some real clout move into southern Lebanon for the long haul. Nations calling for a ceasefire should put up a real peacekeeping force or shut up!

You definitely need a short course in Middle East history starting with the fall of the Ottoman Empire. Read "The Complete Idiot's Guide to the Middle East Conflict." It's a quick read and you will learn many surprising basics!

Shalom

Why should we, at least Israel warns the people to get out and if they stay I believe that is their own fault. Now why wont hezbollah do the same thing? If Israel were to have a cease fire that wouldn't solve a thing, things would only get worse because hezbollah would only become larger and stronger! Why should anyone give into terrorists? This would have never happened if and only if Lebanon would have done what they said they were going to do in the first place in accordance with UN resolution 1559, dont you agree? Hezbollah uses high-density residential areas as launch pads for rockets and heavy-calibre weapons. They dress in civilian clothing so they can quickly disappear, the militants carrying automatic assault rifles and ride in on trucks mounted with cannons. What other country sustains 1,500 indiscriminate rocket attacks into its cities — every one designed to kill, maim and terrorize civilians — and is then vilified by the world when it tries to destroy the enemy's infrastructure and strongholds with precision-guided munitions that sometimes have the unintended but unavoidable consequence of collateral civilian death and suffering?
When the United States was attacked at Pearl Harbor, it did not respond with a parallel "proportionate" attack on a Japanese naval base. It launched a four-year campaign that killed millions of Japanese, reduced Tokyo, Hiroshima and Nagasaki to a cinder, and turned the Japanese home islands to rubble and ruin. Disproportionate? No. When one is wantonly attacked by an aggressor, one has every right — legal and moral — to carry the fight until the aggressor is disarmed and so disabled that it cannot threaten one's security again. That's what it took with Japan. Maybe you should get both sides of the story.

First, why isn't anyone stopping Hez? Why not ask that question as well? How come you don't care about the Israelis who are dying?
You sound biased to me.

Second, your history lesson is also wrong. Before WWII, Palestine belonged to England. They decided to divide it among the peoples of the area, which included Jews.

You don't think there was Arab conflict before this and after this?
How about the Iraq/Iran War? No Jews there. The different Muslim sects are constantly in turmoil. They hate each other..just hate Jews more.

England didn't force Jews and Arabs into one country and expect them to get along. They gave them different countries and expected them to get along. The Jews have tried to get along with the neighbors. However, the Arabs are obsessed with destroying the Jews.

IMHO, it is karma. They are reaping what they have sowed...

Sadly I think this has a lot to do with profit from arms and greed. Did you see the film 'Lord of War' ?. It blew the lid on the multi billion $ arms industry. Billions of arms are manufactured each year which fuel a multiBillion$ industry, so it is in the interest of the arms manufacturers, and the US who by the way fund Israel to the tune of $5B each year, to have ongoing conflict, unfortunately this conflict is always directed at countries with people of brown skin, the Middle East, Africa..
never in our own back yard.

War is fuelled by pure greed and agression, soldiers who return from Iraq and Afghanistan have confirmed this time and time again.

Israel belonged to the jews in the first place as far as Jesus Christ was around. Hezbolla kidnapped 2 soldiers and killed 8 of them in June 15 so that what started this whole thing in Lebbanon. Israel reataliates for actions done by groups like hezbolla and Hamas. So all of those innocent victims you see dead its a reaction of the accions taken by these groups. As far as forcing tribes or enemies in to certain lands that belonged to someone else? THATS HOW THE WORLD WORKS SINCE THE BEGGINING OF TIME!! Unfortunately through war but ever since Achilles invading all of europe Russia, and Asia it was done through war. Like I said it is unfortunate, but it is reality. Palestinians shopul do themselves a favor stop killing so many innocent lives by straping bombs in their bellies, and hiding like cowards inside innocent people's homes.

Because Israel has the right to defend themselves.

Since the UN has flagrantly ignored cease-fire violations from Israel's enemies then Israel has to take matters into their own hands.

And your prejudice is exposed by your one-sided view of the matter.

They don't need to be stopped. They are dismantling the hezbo-losers. Just one of the terrorist groups that have to be taken out. It is saving American lives by letting them take care of this particular bunch of idiots.
