With a backstage wink and a nod from Washington, Israel is more than happy to escalate this war to the level of genocide.

I am convinced their hope is that Iran and Syria will find it impossible to stand idly by and we will have the necessary pretext to continue on The Project for the new American Century! Not to mention the ushering in of the End Times! Oh how rapturous.

I have been predicting for a year, that, lacking the domestic support for another war with Iran, Bush would use Israel to get one anyway.

meanwhile all of our lives and livelihoods are more and more at risk from the continuing rise of Anti-americanism across the globe.

As I've said before. On 9-11, terrorism as we know it was largely a myth, but thanks to the concerted efforts of Bush and Co. it becomes more and more real every day.

I personally have a hard time caring anymore if the Israelis and Arabs want to fight each other to death. But our apocalyptic idiot president's use of this conflict, and support of Israel puts us all at risk. This is not MY fight!

Work to support fresh politicians on both the right and the left. End the Israeli lobby's straglehold on our government! It puts us all in danger!

Go for the Royal Flush!

MEMORANDUM TO: OPINION LEADERS

FROM: WILLIAM KRISTOL

SUBJECT: Kerry Would Pressure Israel

Last Friday, Charles Krauthammer argued in his column, "Sacrificing Israel," that the currency with which a Kerry Administration "would pay the rest of the world in exchange for their support... is obvious: giving in to them on Israel." Krauthammer pointed out that Kerry has emphasized over and over again his desire to move closer to our allies and to re-engage with the "international community." The easiest way to do this would surely be to accommodate other nations' distinctively less friendly view of Israel, and their desire for the U.S. to pressure Israel into concessions for the sake of the "peace process." So, Krauthammer concluded, "If Kerry is elected, the pressure on Israel will begin on day one."

Pro-Israel Kerry supporters protested vigorously. Kerry is pro-Israel, they said. Krauthammer is making a hypothetical argument, drawing a speculative inference. Kerry will be as supportive of Israel's security as Bush has been.

Unfortunately, they forgot to tell the man who is perhaps Kerry's top foreign policy adviser and surrogate, Richard Holbrooke. Appearing on "The O'Reilly Factor" Friday night, Holbrooke warned of a possible "Iran-type clerical dictatorship" in Iraq: This would be "very dangerous for Israel, the U.S. and the world." Then Holbrooke segued into an account of how Kerry would improve the situation in the Middle East: "He [Kerry] has said already he would start intense talks with the allies... and he would reach out to the moderate Arab states. He'd put more pressure on Israel, Syria, Saudi Arabia above all."

"He'd put more pressure on Israel." Holbrooke, perhaps Kerry's choice to be Secretary of State if he's elected, confirms Krauthammer's prediction. So there is a real difference between Bush and Kerry on Israel. Isn't there, Sen. Kerry?


Now if this is not the laugh of all laughs. Iraq is under the Iran clerics which this administration was trying to say would not happen.

How far does this group of pandering rightfundies have to go before the supporting for what ever purpose of these repofundies figure out they have been had and it was seen along time ago by people they seem to trounce on every second.

This is just plain stupid ignorance.

EVE OF DESTRUCTION

The eastern world it is explodin',
Violence flarin', bullets loadin',
You're old enough to kill but not for votin',
You don't believe in war, what's that gun you're totin',
And even the Jordan river has bodies floatin',
But you tell me, over and over and over again, my friend
ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.

Don't you understand, what I'm trying to say?
Can't you see the fear that I'm feeling today?
If the button is pushed, there's no running away,
There'll be none to save with the world in a grave,
Take a look around you, boy, it's bound to scare you, boy,
But you tell me over and over and over again my friend,
ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.

Yeah, my blood's so mad, feels like coagulatin',
I'm sittin' here, just contemplatin',
I can't twist the truth, it knows no regulation,
A handful of Senators don't pass legislation,
and marches alone can't bring integration,
When human respect is disintegratin',
This whole crazy world is just too frustratin',
And you tell me over and over and over again, my friend,
Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.

Think of all the hate there is in Red China
Tehn take a look around to Selma, Alabama
Ah, you may leave here, for four days in space,
but when you return, it's the same old place,
The poundin' of the drums, the pride and disgrace,
You can bury your dead, but don't leave a trace,
Hate your next-door-neighbor, but don't forget to say grace
And you tell me over and over and over and over again my friend,
Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.

Barry McGuire, 1965

Bush went to war on lies by Chalabi (an Iranian spy) who Bush listened to 'cause Bush and the Neocons wanted war SO BAD with Iraq that the would have listened to anyone and therefore Bush helped Iran get rid of its worst enemy -- Saddam -- leaving Iraqi Shiites in total control in Iraq.

Now Iranian Shiites are aligning with Iraq Shiites (whom Bush and the Neocons put into full power) and they are going to get together with the Lebanese Shiites and if Israel touches Syria's land (which it just about did today blowing up about 25 farmers right next to the Syrian border) Iran will come to Syria's defense and BUSH AND THE NEOCONS WILL BE THRILLED BECAUSE THEY WILL HAVE UNLEASHED A FULL BLOWN MIDDLE EASTERN WAR.

WAR is very, very good for the Bush Crime Family, The Carlyle Group, the oil boys in Houston and the Neocon scum who control Bush.

"Neocon scum." Is that like bathroom tile scum? Will it wash off as easily?

Is Hizbollah hiding under bridges?

Neocon scum." Is that like bathroom tile scum? Will it wash off as easily?

No bathroom scum is much cleaner and nicer and doesn't kill people. Only elections and jail can permanently get rid of Neocon scum but Ajax will take care of bathroom scum.

Phew, I'm SOOOOOOOOOO glad there's a place to post about what's going on in Israel's fight against terrorism in Lebanon--you know, because it's so rare for there to be a thread about that topic... dang.

It's interesting that Israel beat the Arabs in a six day war but can't defeat a couple thousand guerillas in three weeks and still counting.

terrorism in Lebanon-

Yes, isn't that Israeli terrorism something terrible.

One Israeli air strike hit a farm near Qaa, close to the Syrian border in the Bekaa Valley where workers, mostly Syrian Kurds, were loading plums and peaches onto trucks, local officials said.
Israeli bombardment killed at least 40 civilians in Lebanon on Friday

Yeah, old Saddam is looking better all the time. LOL

But it's not just the neoCons who are fueling this war. Now the Iranians admit to supplying the jihadis with missiles.

www.jpost.com

The fact is all fundamentalists are end timers.

Too bad we can't get them all together and let them hack each other to pieces.

As for the Six Day War, it's much easier to target a conventional force than the jihadis who hide behind their women and children.

The Israelis should quit with the surgical strikes and just roll in. Scorched earth.

That way everyone gets pissed at once and then in a couple of weeks forgets the whole thing. Dragging this out only allows the jihadis to gain sympathy when what they really desire is death en mass...I mean martyrdom.

Seems others think differently.

Officially, Israel's ground invasion of Lebanon is an act of self-defense against Hezbollah's threat, aimed at creating a security buffer zone until the arrival of a "multinational force with an enforcement capability". But increasingly, as the initial goal of a narrow strip of only a few kilometers has now been extended up to the Litani River deep in Lebanon, the real motives behind Israel's invasion are becoming crystal-clear.

It's about (de facto) annexation, stupid. This is a war to annex a major chunk of Lebanese territory without necessarily saying so, under the pretext of security buffer and deterrence against future attacks on Israel.

Already, since the Six Day War, Israel has annexed the Sheba Farms, considered part of the Syrian Golan Heights, although the government of Lebanon has long complained that the 25-square-kilometer area was a part of Lebanon. Now the Israeli army is sweeping the area south of the Litani River as a temporary occupation.

"We have no intention of extending our operation more than 70 kilometers north of our borders with Lebanon," stated Lieutenant-Colonel Hemi Lini on the Lebanese border on July 17, one week after the war's outbreak.

This would put Israel, assuming for a moment that the Israel Defense Forces' operations prove ultimately successful, in control of the Litani River, thus fulfilling Israel's founding fathers' dream, stretching back to Chaim Weizmann, head of the World Zionist Organization, who in 1919 declared the river "essential to the future of the Jewish national home".

Now the Iranians admit to supplying the jihadis with missiles.

That's terrible. It's only fair when the US supplies Israel with arms.

The Israelis should quit with the surgical strikes and just roll in. Scorched earth.

Hey it worked for Bush. Why can't it work for Olmert?

"25-square-kilometer area "

Less than 10 square miles.

About the size of a small town.

I mean it's not the Alsace-Lorraine.


Hey Ray, glad you're finally onboard.

Bombs to the Israelis=Good

Missiles to the jihadis=Bad

We are all much dumber for having had to read these posts. You will get no points and may God have mercy on your soul.

Keep up the good intelligent work lefties. Ann was right. Or is right, my bad.

Ozark

Here's my take. The Israelis knew they would face a hostile Arab population back in the 40s, but they went ahead and formed a nation anyway. I don't care how they settle. What annoys me is that the US has gotten itself in another quagmire at the expense of American money and lives.

You will get no points and may God have mercy on your soul.

I don't have a soul Nicey.

Good move by the Israelis, expecially since there are reports that iran is desperately trying to get more weapons to Hezbolah.

The Israelis are doing what it takes to win.

You will get no points and may God have mercy on your soul.

I don't have a soul Nicey.

Sorry Ray. May Dog have mercy on your karma then.

Enjoy From here To Eternity. Good flick.

The Israelis may be doing what they think takes to win. The problem is they are following the same strategy Johnson and Nixon tried in Vietnam and Bush tried in Iraq and Afghanistan. I think the results are predictable.

Sorry Ray. May Dog have mercy on your karma then.

Don't have any Karma either.


"Don't have any Karma either."





Well then just enjoy the movie. Have some popcorn and extra butter. Time is short for you on earth, why waste it here?

Enjoy Psalm 13

"I think the results are predictable."





Yes, God took care of that in His word.


Yes, God took care of that in His word.

Yep. He promised the Jews constant war for as long as they lived in Israel - Assyrians, Babylonians, Greeks, Romans and Muslims.

Ray, "The problem is they are following the same strategy Johnson and Nixon tried in Vietnam and Bush tried in Iraq and Afghanistan. I think the results are predictable."

Actually, we are not. Much as the defeaticrats would like America to lose and surrender and give Islamo-fascists a great victory, We are not leaving Iraq till we finish the job (ie, training the security forces and making sure the unity government has a fighting chance of defending itself)...and it is avery tough job, but not hopeless, and certainly not lost.


As for Israel, they are doing what it takes to win,,,,they are cutting off the enemies ability to get reinfrocemnts and weapons, and they are methodically rooting them out, killing and capturing them.

We are not leaving Iraq till we finish the job

That is what Nixon said too. Neither the Israelis nor the US has won a major guerilla uprising since the Spanish-American War.

Goodbye LLoyd and Jeff. Who were the other family members?

it is avery tough job, but not hopeless, and certainly not lost.

Do you realize Derf that counting from the day of the Iraqi invasion, it took the US less time to beat Japan? Instead, the US is facing more hostilities, not less. I don't consider that a sign of progress.

Ray; do you want us to lose? Do you want us to withdraw and surrender? Do yu know what kind of message that would send to the world? It would say that the US does not honor it's obligations, does not live up to its promises, and cannot be trusted to support its allies.

In short, It would be a disaster. Far worse then anything happening now.

The Iraqi's went to the polls and risked their lives to elect their government....we have an obligation, and in fact have promised them that we would help them until they can get on their own two feet.


If the people in Hezbollah were smart and not just a bunch of filthy savages, they would release the two soldiers that they hold and pledge to halt attacks if Israel halts theirs. They would put everything on Israel then and probably score a huge political victory. Even America would probably have to tell Israel to stop the offensive. But they're not smart, they're savages, kill them all... destroy all they have. Peace will come when you destroy their will to fight and show them that all will share in the fate of the terrorists they support.

Ray, why are you always looking backwards to justify surrender.

The Iraq war is its own creature and should be judged on its own. There have been much longer wars, and much shorter wars.

One thing is certain, as "wars" go the US casualty level is extrmely low given the size of the operation. There were more people killed on 9/11 in 90 minutes, then soldiers killed in Iraq in over 4 years. That is pretty amazing..and a credit to the training of our troops and the technology they have at their disposal.

Right now, we are trying to prevent a "civil war" from breaking out and Iraq becoming a terrorist regime....it is undeniably in our best interest to do this.

Rob, if Hezbolah did what you say they would be disgraced among their peers. Besides the world seems to hate israel and love Hezbolah

Mel Gibson gets a lot more condemnation by the world Press over his anti-semitic comments then hezbolah and Iran does for vowing to "wipe Israel off the face of the earth".

Go figure.

Ray; do you want us to lose? Do you want us to withdraw and surrender? Do yu know what kind of message that would send to the world? It would say that the US does not honor it's obligations, does not live up to its promises, and cannot be trusted to support its allies.

Do you want us to lose? Lose WHAT? What is it we are going to lose? You always seem to bring this up but never ever have I heard any of you rightfundies define what we are losing. Never!


Do you want us to withdraw and surrender? Surrender to whom? Who would we be surrendering to? would we be signing a LOST WAR TREATIE PACT with someone.......NO! We lose nothing, we surrender nothing.

Message sent to the world? Do you even have any idea what message we are sending to the world right now? Do you know or even have a tiny idea of what the world thinks of us right now? Your world must be really really small because I know you haven't a clue about what the rest of the world outside your little commode thinks.

Don't Honor obligations? We already failed that from the minute we attacked Iraq.

Promises and allies? What allies, they followed us into the lying mess and are dropping away like flys to paper because they realized the promise of proof of WMD and the reasons for wanting support were all bunk. Promises from had no honor to begin with which also begins to answer your question of what the rest of the world thinks of us.

You're so delusional tunnel visions that it is like you're looking through a telescope from the big end. Mr. Mcglue, Mr. Mcglue, pull off those punted glasses and get a new prescription.

I am not sure I feel much like supporting this war in Iraq any longer. It pisses me off that these pricks are now taking to the streets and protesting America and Israel. What a bunch of grateful pricks to do this while our men and women are still in their country trying to save their sorry asses. I think now we should start packing up and telling them good luck. It is apparent that when all is said and done we will still be no better off than we were before we went in.

Fuck it, while I am at it, I think Bush should pull all of our troops back to America, and tell the rest of the world, good luck. It pisses me off how we are supposed to be the world police and these other weak dick countries just want to play arm chair quarter backs. The UN is a fucked up organizations that can't get shit done. NATO is not much better. These organizations just plain can not agree on shit. We pull our troops and money back to America I bet some people would start singing a different tune.

This is not a democrat/republican thing. This shit has been going on since the end of WWII. America always invests more troops and money than any other country, and we get shit on in return. This shit is getting old fast. I would sometimes love to see a third party candidate get elected and shake up this entire government.

Besides the world seems to hate israel and love Hezbolah

Do you even live in reality?

The world doesn't like Israels method, they think there is a far better way.

You and the Pro far right supporters have no actual intellectual moral thoughts as to the problem so see it as either with us or you love hezbollah.

With people like you allowed to actually vote I can see how our country has got sooooooo screwed up in such a short period of time.

Dawg,

They don't like us, we destroyed that when we fired all the Iraqis from their place of employment and trade to institute a corporate tax profit haven in their country not employing their people.

WE DID THIS, Not the Iraqi people. Owe up to the responsibility, at least show some moral and ethical character.

Crassus, your post is too crazy to respond to. If you don't believe that leaving Iraq and having it become another Syria, a satellite of Iran, would be considered a huge defeat for the US and a huge victory for Islamo-Fascism over democracy, then I can't help you.

I mean are you stupid? Or just so partisan and full of hate that you can't see the negative consequences that surrender would bring...consequences that dwarf the problems we are facing now.

If you think nations like Iran, Syriona and North Korea are emboldened now....imagine what they would be like if we handed them a clear victory in Iraq, and withdraw before conditions onthe ground permit it.

Crassus, I will start with my a courteous GO FUCK YOURSELF! You are a fucking idiot boy anyway. I am sitting here watching new right now, they are showing Hezbollah troops, and you know what you fucking retard? Not one of them asswipes is in uniform.

Pardon my typing, it is Friday, and I am on Corona #5. It's been a long week.

DERF/Loki,

Again as I pointed out, Lose this war? Surrender?

You don't even know what they mean. You cannot even explain what you mean.

Lose to who? Who are we going to lose to? You can't but you post pejorical crap of nothingness because your beloved neorightfundies cannot even explain it.

Surrender surrender, who would we be surrendering too? You can't explain that one either.

So because your not intellectual enough to grasp the explaination of the subject you blame it on me as too crazy to respond to. You are unable to respond so you dismiss it as my fault.

I cannot imagine your actually capable of running a business, you must have one hell of a partner, he must never sleep.

So how do you know they are Hezbollah troops, because they are telling you they are?

How do you know they are not the Civilians that now want to to fight Israel for killing their loved ones?

And for your information, the uniform was from an article posted on this sight from an interview with a wife and child of a dead hezbollah soldier. Go figure!

...imagine what they would be like if we handed them a clear victory in Iraq, and withdraw before conditions on the ground permit it.

errr, guess you missed the photos on tv of THOUSANDS of Shiite Iraqis protesting in Baghdad today and burning Israel and U.S. flags. Bush has already handed them a "clear victory" and the American taxpayer is still paying for it.

CNN showed footage of Hezbollah troops with guns and rocket launchers. Not one of them were in a uniform. So I don't give a shit what you want to call them, if they have a gun they are a target. In war there is no such thing as a Civilian Combatant. They are doing this so they can blend in with the civilians when they are targeted. It's call being a fucking coward, something you can relate to CRASSUS.

It's time for me to go finish my Friday night drinking spree, give em hell.

Now the Iranians admit to supplying the jihadis with missiles.

COMMUNIST CHINA -- Bush's best buddies --originally sold the missles (now being fired into Israel) to Iran and after Iran modified them, the Iranians sent the missiles over to the Hezbollah. But you will NEVER hear from Bush and the Neocons about China being the original makers and sellers of the missiles being fired into Israel -- only that Iran gave the missiles to the Hezbollah.

TSGT DAWG

It's time for me to go finish my Friday night drinking spree, give em hell.

Have one for me. I've had a rotten last 3 weeks and can't get out tonight but order a Black Russian and toast Drudge Retort for me.

OK Dawg,

I will agree with you, some are not wearing uniforms.

Please tell me how the United States was formed?

Must mean we were fucking Cowards huh!

Cali,

The longer-range Zelzal missiles, manufactured by Iran and capable of reaching Tel Aviv, have also not been fired at Israel,...

On the other thread from the rightfundies article posted.

None of the missle being fired are the ones Iran and china made. The stats are there.

CRASSUS

Where did the Hezbollah get the missiles being fired at Israel? All I hear is that IRAN made the missiles being fired at Israel -- especially on Faux News who can't report that "fact" enough times.

Iran admitted for the first time on Friday that it did indeed supply long-range Zelzal-2 missiles to Hizbullah.

And here is the missle specs.

The number of names and naming systems attributed to Iranian missile programs is evidently far larger than the number of actual missile programs. One case in point may be the 200 km range Mushak-200 which is reported to be in development, that may be the Zelzal-2. The Zelzal-2 missile system was made available for sale by Iran in 1996. It has a length of 8.46 m and a diameter of 0.61 m, with a launch weight of 3,545 kg. It carries its 600 kg warhead to a maximum range of 200 km (124 miles).


http://www.globalsecurity.org/
wmd/world/iran/zelzal-2.htm

Now I would love to see a man carry a 24 foot long missle almost 3 feet in diameter on his shoulder. For that matter even a car driving around with it.


Where did the Hezbollah get the missiles being fired at Israel?

The missle they are talking about only have a range of like 20 miles not 124 miles so they are using propaganda to suggest the Iran missles are the ones being fired.

This is the kind of bull shit I am talking about. They are mixing, spinning, and out right lying about were and who is using what.

As they print the information from the stories and articles just look the stuff up and it shows so much conflict that it is not real.

The missle Iran sold is 3500 kilos or about 8700 pounds.

Yep, they are surely carrying them on their shoulders. Pretty tough to hide 13000 18 foot long missles in a 10 square mile area wouldn't you say.

Crassus

The ULTIMATE goal of Bush and the Neocons is to go into full scale war with Syria and Iran. If Syria gets hit by us, Iran has already said they will come to Syria's defense. Anyone who has read the Neocon bible - Project for a New American Century (PNAC) - already is well aware control and takeover of the Middle East and absolute security for Israel is the Bush Neocons' ultimate goal at all costs and that is why they have been doing nothing but talking about Iran in every instance -- they want war with Iran. Iraq had OIL. Iran has OIL. (Of course, that wackjob president of Iran is only helping the Neocons agenda with his crap about wiping Israel off the map.)

In case you hadn't read the original PNAC document (it is a rather lengthy 90 pages long) here is a link to the "PNAC Primer" which is a summary of the Neocons' goals -- takeover of the Middle East and control of the world's resources (mainly oil) and putting in democracies (as long as people in a country ONLY vote in a leader "business friendly" to U.S. corporate interests). The Neocons' PNAC's document in 1996 was signed by Cheney, Rumsfeld, JEB BUSH, Douglas Feith, and the complete roster of the Neocon cabal and was written at the Neocon headquarters -- American Enterprise Institute.

Interesting read and always good as a refresher as to what the Bush Neocons are all about -- WORLD DOMINATION using the U.S. military and the U.S. Treasury funds to finance their takeover of the world.

Here is the link:

THE PNAC PRIMER - THE NEOCONS' AGENDA

Irans total rockets

Seems none of the rockets can be carried by man to launch the 20 to 25 mile range.

Here are the main Neocon players. GWB was not a Neocon originally -- just brother Jeb -- but he came in handy as their puppet and still is.

NEOCON ROSTER:

This PNAC group was led by such heavy hitters as Donald Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney, James Woolsey, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, Bill Kristol, James Bolton, Zalmay M. Khalilzad, William Bennett, Dan Quayle, Jeb Bush, most of whom were movers-and-shakers in previous Administrations, then in power-exile, as it were, while Clinton was in the White House. But even given their reputations and clout, the views of this group were regarded as too extreme to be taken seriously by the mainstream conservatives that controlled the Republican Party.

Add Douglas Feith and Scooter Libby to the list above, but the main original Neocons are in the above quote. Notice how Bush has moved Bolton into the UN now. The Neocons have infested our government and foreign policy like cockroaches.

Whether the rockets were given to the Hezbollah by Iran or not does not matter to the Bush Administration. They want WAR with Iran and they want it bad -- especially with the elections coming up and Bush feeling that if he can get our country into a "rally round the flag" feeling for him, his poll numbers might go up. But I don't see that happening as Bush has done too much and most Americans do not trust this guy. As for Bush saying that all the missiles being thrown into Israel are from Iran, well what's a few more lies to a bunch of thugs in this White House that took us into the mess that is now Iraq based on WMD's that didn't exist.

Rob, if Hezbolah did what you say they would be disgraced among their peers. Besides the world seems to hate israel and love Hezbolah

Mel Gibson gets a lot more condemnation by the world Press over his anti-semitic comments then hezbolah and Iran does for vowing to "wipe Israel off the face of the earth".

Go figure.

If you Republitards were so worried about Hezzbo, you shouldn't have turned them into the government of a country.

Oh wait... that would be admitting you guys failed... again... as usual... because conservatives are incompetent.

Derfla5,
"It would say that the US does not honor it's obligations, does not live up to its promises, and cannot be trusted to support its allies."

You ought to be a stand up comedian. That is the most hysterically funny statement on this site.

The USA has NEVER honored an obligation since it was created. Right here in the good old U S of A, the Federal government signed more than FIVE-HUNDRED treaties with the Native Americans who owned this land before we stole it from them. NOT A SINGLE TREATED signed between its native population and the Government has EVER been honored. Over 500 treaties duly signed by Congress and the Presidents in office at the time of signing have ALL been broken.

So now all of a sudden, our "integrity" as a nation would come into question if another treaty were thrown onto the mountain of treaties we have already broken? You have to be kidding! Not even mentioning the myriad of International Laws broken by our nation.

From our Hitler-like rigging of an "attack" upon the USS Maine in Havana Harbor to start the Spanish - American War in an effort to seize Cuba, which failed just as miserably as most other efforts by this nation, to our intervention in Viet Nam after France failed to win the insurgent war there, we have had one miserable failure after another. The result of the Spanish - American War was gaining Puerto Rico, Saipan, the Panama Canal Zone and territorial control over the Philippines until driven out of there, We failed to obtain Cuba and it has driven it into the realm of the Communist powers and cost us untolled billions of dollars to defend ourselves unnecessarily when if we had treated them like neighbor countries should they never would have gone communist.

As far as Iran supplying missiles to Israel, why shouldn't they. After all Smirky the Chimp just got in big trouble with Lap Dog Blair for illegally refueling cargo planes in England that were filled with bunker-buster guided bombs on their way to Israel. So Lebanon can't have anyone help them while the USA is supplying massive destructive power to the nation that is invading them? Hardly seems fair, but when has anyone ever met a fair neo-con? I sure haven't.

So when you speak of honoring commitments, sorry but you are talking about a nation that has never honored its commitments.

The Shyguy,

I have to ask this again. So you are comparing the terrorist organization Hezbollah with the nation state Israel? You seem to be using the justification that if it is ok for the US to supply a nation with weapons then it is ok for Iran to supply terrorist with weapons?

OK Dawg,

I will agree with you, some are not wearing uniforms.

Please tell me how the United States was formed?

Posted by Crassus


First off you Nazi prick, the press was not around during those days. World opinion met shit. Second, Americans did not hide behind women and kids the way your hero's do. They took the fight as far away from their families as they could. I know it is hard for your feeble brain to comprehend the fact that your hero's try to use public opinion to sway the outcome of wars. Your comparison of the American revolution, and Israel and Lebanon is night and day you fucking brain dead moron. Nice try retard.

Second, Americans did not hide behind women and kids the way your hero's do.

They don't have to. They hide behind the best military technology money can buy. And bloodthirsty armchair cowards like Dawg hide behind 6,000 miles of ocean.
