I hope a protester in front of the White House reads this or anyone that sides with those illogical people?

Question

Im utterly disgusted by the Lebanese and Muslims that are protesting in front of the White House. They are protesting against America and Israel's Middle East policies. These protesters claim they want justice but they're so stupid they cant realize that Hezbollah fighters kidnapped Isreal's soldiers first. Lebanon is stuck in the middle because they failed to keep Hezbollah, a terror organization under control. If Lebanon could react and work with Israel to gain control of Hezbollah I'm sure much more cordinated attacks would happen, which would spare innocent lebanese lives. However, Lebanon seemed to have no power over Hezbollah until deciding a few days ago that they could deploy about 30,000 troops to fend off Hezbollah from Israel's border. Every enemy Bush or Israel have targeted asked for a battle. If we do not confront these terrorists or nations that harbor them we will witness another 9/11 on U.S. soil or elsewhere. We have the power to rid the world of evil so lets do it!

Answer 1

We do not have the power to rid the world of evil... Is the war in Iraq your basis of a war that works?? The only thing we could do is blow them all up, and then we'd be killing innocent civilians... which would be evil. People have the right to protest the government. It is America, after all.

Answer 2

What Israel is doing to Lebanon is out of proportion to what happened to Israel as a nation. Hezbollah kidnapped those soldiers, not all of the Lebanese people as a whole. It would be like someone running their neighbor and his children over with a lawnmower because their dog took a dump on his rose garden. If I were to react that way, people would deem me a psychotic murderer and I would be tried and put in prison. What does this invasion make Israel?

This isn't the nineteenth century anymore, where a country can go to war over the slightest offense, like the Maine getting blown up. Israel could have used intelligence reports to find out where the soldiers were being held. Then they could have used this information and sent in some commandos to get the soldiers back. That would have been an appropriate use of force.

It is the right of everyone in the world to protest against what they believe to be wrong. Not just pro-Bush Americans in the USA, but everyone and everywhere.

Answer 3

People believe their own convenient truths. Some people (Muslims and liberals) do not want to see that Hezbollah is the instigator of this current mess. They want it to be those that they perceive as the oppressors. Anyone with military power, authority and a will to use it falls into this catagory.

I do not have a problem with people protesting outside of the White House. That isn't a problem. You did point out part of the problem with why they are protesting though. It isn't that they are to stupid to recognize who started it, but it is more like this: If your cousin beat up on his neighbors kid, and then the neighbor came and whipped your cousin.... well you would probably be arguing on behalf of your cousin. Its the old blood is thicker than water thing. Just Imagine the peoples of that region as the Hatfields and McCoys. They keep fighting each other because they have been taught to hate each other during their whole lives.

The Lebanese are not innocent. At least part of them are not. That place is so divided up by religious and power hungry goons the likes that people in the Western world do not have anything to compare it to in their experience. People simply don't realize that there are many different factions that side with other factions when it is convienent for them to do so, and fight the same people when it isn't. Shiite, Sunni, Druze, Christian and splinter groups of each. Its a nuthouse.

We do have power to rid the world of evil.. nuke the planet. But it sure wouldn't be a fun place to live afterward. And I don't think you really understand how prevailant evil is in the world. We in the west have it so easy....

Answer 4

I tend to agree with you that the Lebanese government should have been taking care of the Hezbollah terrorist out of there country now years later sorry to say they are facing the consequences of not keeping them out, as for whose land it is that has no bearing on terrorists trying to exterminate a people. Oh keep in mind Hezbollah firing there missiles into Israel is not a new thing its been happening for years, Hezbollah taking Israel soldiers is a act of war so Isreal is justified in all there actions, and innocent Lebanese people being killed is terrible but its those pussy Hezbollah that hide in populated areas.

Answer 5

John Kerry has penis envy, and so do each and every of the liberals who imagine some thing undesirable about the tea social gathering. seem if Obama become worth 2 cents he ought to have had issues below administration both years the Dem's had the residing house senate and authorities branch's he ought to have finished some thing then if he meant to ever. Now the tea social gathering has in hardship-free words been at it considering they were elected very last fall. How the hell can anybody with a ideas no longer see that. Its extremely relaxing to work out each and every of the liberals pointing fingures and calling names it like a poker tell, tells how undesirable they are sweating it.

Answer 6

Dude, those soldiers were captured on Lebanese soil.. a fact you didn't pick up while watching your logical fair and balanced Fox News..

Secondly Israel stole land from Palestine to create a new state.

You'll witness another 9/11 my friend but think outside the patriotic square...please just a bit of outward thinking.

I believe it was Benjamin Franklin said it best 'They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.'

Answer 7

You said, "These protesters claim they want justice but they're so stupid they cant realize that Hezbollah fighters kidnapped Israel's soldiers first."

And apparently you can't realize that the entire state of Israel is built on land that belongs to someone else. I'm not saying Hezbollah's actions are good, right, or justified. But this situation is MUCH more complex than you apparently realize.

Answer 8

The great thing about America is that they have the right to protest. Just as you have the right to be disgusted with them. I don't know how I'd feel if I were in their shoes. You know the old saying ... Don't judge a person until you've walked a mile in their shoes. A good way to handle your feelings is to pray for our president, our military, for the protesters, Israel, etc. Pray for God to reach their hearts and minds, to see why things are the way they are in their country. God bless!

It is just disgusting, makes me feel like vomitting, to hear guys like you trying to rationalize, legitimize, humanize the vile evil acts committed by Israel.
