Is it me or does anyone else feel Israel has no right being in Lebannon, and USA has no right to always stand by Israel when its up to no good? I really feel for those people out there. There is no room for terroism in our world, but when innocent civilians are hurt, is it any wonder terroism persists?

yeah, you are right...israel had an excessive reaction, and it had no right of doing what it had done...

If you pick a fight with someone stronger than you expect to be pounded!
Hezballah are to blame they operate amung civilians, they can stop the killings by coming out of hiding, but no theiregathering up sympathy votes!

people whing when america sticks its nose in international affairs, now they whinge when they sit back

[certom]

hey, i didn't understand what you mean with "sympathy votes"...could you explain it?

[manbitesdog]

who cares who is right or wrong innocent people are getting killed here on both sides the world police should be putting a stop to this and if that is the usa/uk they should do all they can not take aback seat or pick sides

Sympathy votes are where people get support or sympathy because something bad has happened to them, or they make out that something bad has happened to them (otherwise known as 'attention seeking'). Quite often people looking for the sympathy vote will portray themselves as victims without any recourse available to them and they tend to exaggerate facts to suit themselves whilst glossing over facts which do not suit their cause. This leads to quite a one-sided story which can deviate far away from the truth.

manbitesdog...I see your point but who are we to go storming in trying to keep the peace when we can't even keep the peace in our own country

hey i stay in the muder capital of europe but i would rather see my kids grow up here than any where in the middle east cant sit by and watch them destory each other the world police should take some action

[bud]

the world police as you like to call it are seen by the arabs as "crusaders" it wont help the situation. those people are beyond help they still live in the 11th century!

the problem is that Israel has been always attacknig palestina since 1948, and US are with it, now they don't take a real position, because they know that israel took a wrong decision attacknig Libano, but thay can't be against their allieds...Israel should be like Iraq: first allied, then enemy, because it was threatening the yankees with " weapons of mass destruction", and then you could imagine an american operation... although i hope that UN will come before US...

The mentality of the people of that area (holy land) go further back than the modern state of Israel!

there will be no Fix by the UN or by the US, not when people are brought up, brainwashed with hate!

Certom youre missing the point of who Israel is attacking, they are attacking Hezbollah. That they reside in residential areas of lebanon is why it looks like a blatant attack on Lebanese civialians! that you see it as such is the sympathy vote sucker the islamics would like you to beleive
and to the US they regard Hezbollah as well as most western countries as a Terrorist regime not unlike Taleban! So the US will bide its time and allow Israel to take them out.

but like ive said there will be no fix not when there is so much hate between religious beliefs. and not when you have islamic terrorists that think this is still the time of Richard the lion heart and the great crusades.....

[certom]

A few days ago Israel thrown messages over libano in which there was written that they would have attacked each vehicled that moved, the PRESS vehicle too, because they think that Hezbollah hide and use the journalists to cover....
then, they prepared the land troops to invade the territory...

this is not a defensive reaction, this is a real invasioon, and there will be a real war, US should only speak to their israelian friend, and intimate them to stop making what they are doing....

it's very difficult to let me understand and to make a long discussion, because my english is not very good and i don't know a lot of words, but i say this: I'm one of those, who are against each war, war is not necessary to solve problems, on the contrary, war generates problems...
