Cries and screams
Extended quotation from the Angry Arab
Israeli Prime Minister Olmert: “Hezbollah used Qana as base to launch 100s of rockets”, so we decided to kill all the women and children who are launching these rockets. I proudly announce to the Israeli nation that we have succeeded in killing a large number of the women and children of the enemy today, and will kill more tomorrow…. [the rest is here]

The alleged site(s) for the lauch of rockets from Qana, to which the IDF alludes, is absolutely no justification for the Qana II massacre. As an Anglo-Irishman (mother Irish, father English) having grown up during the troubles, had the British Government decided to bomb residential areas in Catholic neighbourhoods of Belfast, in the wake of a terrorist attack in London, there would have been a justifiable outcry from all party affiliates. Why? Because as ignorant as the Briitsh government were at the time, the bombing of civilians in order to get at IRA ringleaders was unthinkable, nay, not even mentioned. I don’t even have to explain why and I pity anyone who doesn’t understand the obvious connotations of such a retaliation. I interpret the IDF/Iraeli government’s actions as racist and barbaric and wholly unjustifiable. Indeed, as one Zahera Harb, former Lebanese journalist who covered the first Qana massacre of over 300 civilians, mentioned yesterday, the Israelis had broken an accord, following the Hezbulah killing of 8 Israeli soldiers and capture of 2, between Hezbullah and the IDf regarding the resolution of hostage issues between the two groups, an accord which I believe was established in April of 1996. In other words, despite Hezbullah’s crimes, Israel’s reaction was totally unwarranted and totally unjustified since it had the option of pursuing another less bloody course of action. This fact coupled with the fact that this barabric “war” was in the offing a year ago says it all really. Utterly disgusted.

God, Wallsy, it’s just horrible. Anything goes against the homides sacres. The Israeli justifications are being reported just now by their servants on NPR. Sure, Hezbollah is amongst the population just like Democrats and Republicans are here in America. Who is trying to eliminate who?

“Sure, Hezbollah is amongst the population just like Democrats and Republicans are here in America. Who is trying to eliminate who?”
And so what if they are? So bloody what!?! Ok, er, General Sharon is in an ISraeli hospital, teh General who initiated the Sabra Shatila massacre in 1982: HE may recover and exact more atrocities!!! Is this a good reason to bomb the hospital?
OF COURSE F***ING NOT!!!
