An Israeli missile incinerated a van in south Lebanon, killing 20

The Hezzies decided to sacrifice the Lebanese while they play their juvenile
games.
The only hope is that stem cell research will one day be able to grow brain
cells for the Arabs and they'll kick out the bad boys.

Were they not responding to Israel's bombing and killing the
palestinians in Gaza?
Let us assume that the Hizbollah was wrong in "kidnapping" the Israeli
soldiers and fired rockets into Isarel. It still does not explain
Israel's relatively indiscriminate air strikes. Is killing innocents
civilians the only way Israel can respond? If so, why?

Well aimed? At the civilians, may be.
The strikes "has killed a total 162 people, all but 13 of them
civilians."

So you don't care if Israel is right or not? Er, ok.
No. The simple fact is the Hezzies kidnapped two soldiers and fired rockets
into Israel. In simple terms, they started it.
In the bigger tit-for-tat picture, it's meaningless to claim that one
started it. They are both victims and both aggressors.
The Hezzies got more than they bargained for though. Israel is calling up
reserves and may invade Lebanon soon.
I guess they got tired of it all? In any case, it seems the Hezzies are
quite happy to sacrifice Lebanon and its people for their childish game.

It obviously might be said that Israel is overreacting.
However, if you were intellectually honest, you might also mention that
Israel has been making an effort to get civilians to leave areas before
they bomb them.
See how that works? It's called trying to make a fair analysis. Maybe
you should try it some time.

No, they weren't, not really. While the two events are now tied
together, the leader of Hezbollah has admitted that they had been
planning to do this for months.
http://www.nytimes.com/2006/07/13/world/middleeast/13mideast .html
"The prisoners will not be returned except through one way -
indirect negotiations and a trade," said the leader of Hezbollah,
Sheik Hassan Nasrallah, speaking to reporters in Beirut on Wednesday.
He suggested the possibility of a deal. "The capture of the two
soldiers could provide a solution to the Gaza crisis," he said. The
operation had been planned for months, he said, though he added, "The
timing, no doubt, provides support for our brothers in Palestine."
------
So to repeat the question, can someone explain why Hezbollah kidnapped
two Israeli soldiers and fired rockets into Israel triggering the
current crisis?
Perhaps this sheds some light:
http://www.nytimes.com/2006/07/16/world/middleeast/16hezboll ah.html
Israel's shelling of Gaza provided Hezbollah with an opportunity to
show solidarity with its Islamic brethren there.
But analysts pointed to other motives. Hezbollah needs to reassert its
right to maintain its own heavily armed militia against ever louder
domestic calls for its disarmament, and its actions burnish its
backers, Iran and Syria, as they face Western attempts to combat and
isolate them.
----------------
In other words, Hezbollah did it mainly to stir up trouble in support
of its own legitimacy, and in support of Syria and Iran. And of course
the timing was such that it also supports Hamas in Gaza. Though I don't
really see how it's helping Hamas much.
At any rate, any honest criticism of Israel's strong reaction should
also take note of Hezbollah's motives in bringing this on.

This "162 all but 13" does not include the many Hizbollah terrorists
that have been killed. Do you really think the Hizbollah is reporting
all their fighters that have been killed to the Lebonese government?
For future reference, LTLee, are you classified as civilian or
military?

I have no idea how reuters arrived at the number of "162 all but 13".
If you think reuters were not reliable, please state it explicitedly
and furnished a reliable figure. Until you do that, I will take the
figures as they are.

I believe the figure from reuters is an unreliable estimation of the
causualties in Lebanon for the reasons I previously stated (quoted
above).

Clearly this is an unnecessary requirement for discounting an
unreliable figure.

That's right, if a figure supports LT's agenda, he will take it as it
is. If it does not support LT's agenda (such as reflecting badly on the
Chinese Communist Party), he will reject it.

Of course it is necessary.
A claim of "162 all but 13" had been made and reported world wide. It
is fine that you dispute the claim. But then you need to provide a
counterclaim so all can evaluate your side of the argument. Else you
are only saying you don't believe it because of certain assumption.

Why?
In that case, I guess you have to give us a reliable estimate of how
many people have quit the CCP.
You're not fooling anyone.

"A nation that mandates the primacy of one ethnicity or religion over
all others will eventually become psychologically dysfunctional.
Narcissistically obsessed with its own image, it must strive to
maintain its racial superiority at all costs and will inevitably come
to view any resistance to this imagined superiority as an existential
threat. Indeed, any other people automatically becomes an existential
threat simply by virtue of its own existence. As it seeks to protect
itself against phantom threats, the racist state becomes increasingly
paranoid, its society closed and insular, intellectually limited.
Setbacks enrage it; humiliations madden it. The state lashes out in a
crazed effort, lacking any sense of proportion, to reassure itself of
its strength."

Well, I have no way of knowing if he was speaking about Israel or if it
was really a former CIA analyst, since you didn't include a cite, but
whoever said that is leaving out the fact that a lot of people want to
wipe Israel off the face of the earth. Balanced analysis, see how that
works? There are (at least 2) sides and neither is completely right or
completely wrong.

America Is Being Set-Up For Wider War In The Middle East
By Paul Craig Roberts
The old adage, "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me"
does not apply to Americans, who have shown that they can be endlessly
fooled.
Neoconservatives deceived Americans into an illegal attack and
debilitating war in Iraq. American neoconservatives are closely allied
with Israel's Likud Party. In the past, some neocons lost their
security clearances because of "mishandling" of classified information.
According to Insight Magazine (online version, 6/26/06), "the Pentagon
has banned security clearance to Americans with relatives in Israel.
Government sources and attorneys said the Pentagon has sought and
succeeded in removing security clearance from dozens of Americans,
mostly Jews, who either lived, worked or have relatives in Israel."
Despite questions of dual loyalties, neocons hold high positions in the
Bush regime. Ten years ago these architects of American foreign and
military policy spelled out how they would use deception to achieve
"important Israeli strategic objectives" in the Middle East. First,
they would focus "on removing Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq." This
would open the door for Israel to provoke attacks from Hizbollah. The
attacks would let Israel gain American sympathy and permit Israel to
seize the strategic initiative by "engaging Hizbollah, Syria, and Iran
as the principal agents of aggression in Lebanon."
Today, this neoconservative plan is unfolding before our eyes. Israel
has used the capture of two of its soldiers in Lebanon as an excuse for
an all out air and naval bombardment against Lebanese civilian
targets. However, a number of commentators have pointed out that such a
massive attack requires weeks if not months of preparation that could
not be done overnight in response to the capture of the soldiers.
Regardless, in the first two days of the Israeli military attack on
Lebanon more than a hundred civilians, including Canadians, have been
killed by Israeli bombs (gifts from US taxpayers). The International
Airport in Beruit has been repeatedly bombed, as have residential
neighborhoods, roads, bridges, ports, and power stations.
Soldiers are a legitimate military target. Civilians, civilian
neighborhoods, tourists and international airports are not. Under the
Nuremberg standard used to sentence Nazi war criminals to death, the
Israeli government is clearly guilty of war crimes.
Meanwhile the Israelis are committing identical war crimes in Gaza.
Again Israel's excuse is the capture of an Israeli soldier. However,
the distinguished Israeli professor, Ran HaCohen, said that the Israeli
army "had been demanding a massive attack on Gaza long before the
Israeli soldier was kidnapped."
By blocking UN Security Council action against Israel for its massacre
of civilians in Gaza, the Bush regime has made itself complicit in
these monstrous war crimes. Just as Germans who supported Hitler were
deemed to be complicit in his war crimes, Americans who support Bush
are complicit in Bush's war crimes.
Hizbollah is not the Lebanese government. It does not rule Lebanon.
Hizbollah is the militia organization founded in 1982 in response to
Israel's invasion of Lebanon. Hizbollah defeated the Israeli army and
drove out the Israeli invaders six years ago.
According to the BBC, Hizbollah leader Hassan Nassrallah said that the
two Israeli soldiers "were captured to pressure Israel to release the
thousands of Palestinian prisoners in its jails," especially the women
and children.
The BBC also notes that although Hizbollah operates "from Lebanese
territory and the militant group has two ministers in the Lebanese
government, central government is almost powerless to influence the
militant group." [Note that the BBC applies the loaded word "militant"
to Hizbollah but not to Israel.] Hizbollah, reports the BBC, "is also
very popular in Lebanon and highly respected for its political
activities, social services and its military record against Israel."
The Prime Minister of Lebanon, who was installed with President
Bush's approval when Syria, under Bush's pressure, recently
withdrew its troops from Lebanon, has twice appealed to Bush to
pressure Israel to stop its criminal attacks. Our great moral
democratic Christian leader has twice rebuffed the appeal from the
legal representative of the Lebanese people. Instead, Bush is
willingly going along with the 1996 neocon script. Bush is laying the
blame on Syria and Iran, exactly as the neocon script calls for him to
do.
When Bush demands that Syria "stop Hizbollah attacks," he forgets that
he was the one who forced Syria out of Lebanon (to enable Israel to
attack Lebanon). If Americans were attentive, they would be ashamed to
witness "their" president as Israeli propagandist.
Fox "news," CNN and the rest of the Bush propaganda ministry are
echoing the lie that innocent Israel is under attack from the
"terrorist states" of Syria and Iran through their surrogate,
Hizbollah. Americans, who are sick of the Iraq occupation and want the
troops home, are being fooled again and set up for wider war in the
Middle East.
Evangelical "Christians" are part of the propaganda show. Three
thousand of them under the lead of the Rev. John C. Hagee, are heading
to Washington for a "Washington/Israel summit" to demand, needlessly,
that the neocon Bush regime show "stronger support for Israel."
It is difficult to see how Bush could show any stronger support without
using the US military to assist Israel in its attacks, which is, of
course, what the "Christian" Rev. Hagee intends when he declares:
"There's a new Hitler in the Middle East [he doesn't mean Bush or
Olmert]. The only way he will be stopped will be by a pre-emptive
military strike in Iran."
Present at Rev. Hagee's "Washington/Israel Summit" will be
Israell's former Minister of Defense, Lt. Gen. Moshe Yaalon, Israeli
Ambassador Daniel Ayalon, and the Republican National Committee
Chairman Ken Mehlman, along with Republican Senators Sam Brownback and
Rick Santorum and the Rev. Jerry Falwell and Gary Bauer.
The American Israel Public Affairs Committee, the most powerful lobby
in Washington, expressed its thanks to Rev. Hagee for demonstrating
"the depth and breadth of American support" for Israel. Recently, AIPAC
has been under investigation as a suspected nest for Israeli spies.
David Brog, former chief of staff for Republican Senator Arlen Specter,
has gone to work for Rev. Hagee. Brog, who is Jewish, says he works
for Hagee's evangelical enterprise because "we're bringing into a
pro-Israel camp millions of Christians who love Israel and giving them
a political voice. Israel's enemies are our enemies, and this group
instinctively understands that." Brog goes on to say that Hagee's
evangelicals understand that they are not supposed to talk about Jesus,
only about saving Israel: "Christians who work with Jews in supporting
Israel realize how sensitive we are in talking about Jesus. They
realize it will interfere with what they are trying to do."
Gentle reader, is this an admission that evangelicals have set aside
Jesus for war? Do these bloody-minded evangelicals really believe they
will be wafted to Heaven for helping Israel involve the US in more war?
Have evangelicals forgotten that "an eye for an eye" is Old Testament.
"Turn the other cheek" is New Testament.
On July 14, Reuters reported that alone among Christians, the "Vatican
condemns Israel for attacks on Lebanon."
Whose delusion is the greatest--the evangelical "rapture" delusion, the
neocon delusion about American power, or the Zionist delusion? The
three together mean disaster for America, Israel and the world.
One of the great evangelical/Zionist/neocon myths is that "tiny Israel"
armed with 200 nuclear weapons is threatened by Muslim Middle Eastern
countries. In actual fact, Egypt and Pakistan, which have the bulk of
the Middle Eastern Muslim population, are ruled by American puppets.
Jordan, Saudi Arabia and the oil emirates are totally dependent on US
protection and, thereby, are also under the American thumb. Iran is
Persian, not Arab, and has no common borders with Israel. Hizbollah
was created when Israel tried to seize Lebanon in 1982. Hamas is a
Palestinian response to the atrocities Palestinians have suffered for a
half century at Israel's hands.
Israel's land-stealing policy is the source of Middle Eastern
instability. America is hated, because American money and weapons are
what enable Israel to steal Palestine from Palestinians.
As numerous Middle East experts have pointed out, what is decried as
"Arab terrorism against Israel" is, in fact, the only tactic Muslims
have for calling the world's attention to the plight of the
Palestinians, about which Americans are generally ignorant.
It is absurd for Bush to condemn Syria for not behaving as an American
puppet and for not fighting Israel's battles by taking on Hizbollah.
Syria and Iran (and Iraq prior to the US invasion) are the only Middle
Eastern countries independent of American control. It is far beyond the
boundaries of reason and morality to expect these two remaining
independent countries to give up their independence in order to enable
Israel to steal Palestine and southern Lebanon.
It is the refusal of Syria and Iran (and Saddam Hussein's Iraq) to
stand with Israel against Palestine that has targeted them for American
attack. Neocons have total control of US foreign policy in the Bush
regime, and they have morphed US strategic interests into Israel's.
As the neoconservative architects of Bush's wars revealed in 1996,
their concern lies with "Israeli strategic objectives."

i'd have to agree with that. so many people i have spoken to simply blindly
support any actions isreal takes.
i'm not anti-isreal. i like them just fine, but their actions need to be

Revelation for you...there is more to this than just 2 missing soldiers.
The Hezzies have been a bad neighbor for quite some time now. Israel has
been showing restraint. Now they've decided, enough is enough and they've
decided to resolve the issue once and for all i.e. no more rockets. The
Hezzies lit the fire, not the Izzies. Now everyone pays up, including the
Lebs.
It's more than fair that the civilians that support terrorists also pay a
price but there are others in Lebanon who are not supporting the Hezzies but
are still paying i.e. Christians, Druze, etc.
The destroyed infrastructure will result in high unemployment. People
without jobs are more likely to throw rocks, become suicide bombers, etc.
This is where the Izzies are messing up.
Syria comes out a loser...and to a minor extent, Iran. Iran is already on
everybody's shit list.
I don't really expect the Euros to step up and commit troops but the best
case would be a UN mil force occupying S Lebanon eventually replaced by the
Lebs. You have to remember, the Euros are long on preaching but short on
commitment.
This will burn itself out in a couple weeks after the Izzies feel the
Hezzies are sufficiently bludgeoned. If nothing else, the Hezzies will think
twice before messing around...that's two more times than you.

Actually the number of Leb casualties is very low considering the number of

A wider war is unlikely. Unless Israel attacks Syria or some guy named
Gavrilo Princip comes along, this will burn itself out in a couple more
weeks.
Syria is unlikely to attack. They don't have a very good track record going
up against the Israelis but the dentist that runs Syria is no genius either.
He's kind of a dumbed-down version of Kim Jong Il. The Izzies would lose a
few planes to air-defenses but Syria would ultimately lose its air-defenses
and then its air force.
Does Syria want bombs dropping on Damascus? If anything, the Israelis have a
much more formidable military than the Syrians since the days of the Bekaa
Valley turkey-shoot. The Iranians have mostly patched up old US aircraft,
left over from the days of the Shah...and they have the Yanks on their east
and west borders....in easy reach of Tehran. Jordan and Egypt will stay
out...no love lost between Shias and Sunnis. The Jordanians, Saudis and
Egyptians already pretty much publicly blamed the Hezzies for the
mess...Syria's proxies.
I forget what it was now, but the Israelis did make an attempt to suck in
the US with an accusation against the Iranians, but the logic wasn't there
at all.

GWB & Putin are loving it. They hope the jews and arabs kill each
other. Bush would love to have Israel destroy Iran and the other arabs
not under his thumb. Putin loves to have his jews leave for Israel.
They won't let Israel go under because they would have to take back all
the unwanted jews. They both hate jew money controlling industries at
home. When jew money leaves US and Russia to help Israel, jew
influence declines in US & Russia.
No matter what PC crap comes out of their mouths, the world don't want
jews so they fool the jews into going to Israel.
