Comments on: Prominent Lebanese Politician Assassinated

Anti-Syrian Christian Leader Pierre Gemayel Gunned Down Near Beirut

It is a religious power struggle. Radical Islam against Moderate Christianity%u2026the problem here is turn the other cheek doesn%u2019t work against weapons and Hatred. People who have earned nothing Kill for what they want. They blame Israel and the United States and NEVER look at them selves as a problem, it much easer to blame the other person then stand for what%u2019s right.

...... . We need to shore up each country through development of their security forces and their instutions......... and then pull out of the region while maintaining yearly aid to each of the three countries....
Yeah it's hard work.......... if it was easy it would have been done long ago.
It would be nice if the UN and rest of the world would pitch in but we can't expect that......

You sound like the Republican Democracy Building Imperial Killers inOffice Today. Your resolution to the Middel East Issues, is to Arm All Of The Middle East and let all Hell Break Out ? That is a sick and Inhumain/Unchristion and UnAmerican Policy of War Mongering. That war would not stop at the Middle Eastern Borders.

ATTENTION PC LIBS:YOU CAN GENERALIZE
Concerning generalizations, why not. You can not make any sensible judgment unless you can observe, and come to a conclusion. If it is correct to say most Janpanese are thinner vs.most Polish people , why not make other ethnic statements that follow emperical observations.
Our Univeristies are teaching us to be stupid.
In this world, it is dangerous not to know your enemy and what they are most likely up to, either from their past or what "they" say.
That there is a pattern of killing the Christians in Leb who speak our for freedom, killed by Muslims, is a fact. Go to International Herald Tribune site for complete list of Christians recently killed, one after another. Our media has a short memory, and too PC, or too involved in fluff or selling its own shows.
The International sites have been warning of Hezbollah trying to take over for last few days.

An anti-Syrian Christian Lebanese politician, I'm surprised he made it this long. A brave man indeed.

"JimiBear
you are completely correct, they could have left the fact that this was a Muslim killing a Christian and just said it was an assassination of a political person and not to many American would have looked twice.. "

I dis agree wiht the assumptions that All Americans would look the other way, or in the Ill stated assumtioons that it is "a Muslim's way of doing it"... I Totally disagree with the Religious and Racial Slurs I constantly Read in these blogs.
Can't we all just stict to the Topic at hand and not make it "Steriotypical Hate Messages"? I have friends of many faiths adn many races from other countries outside America and find so many offensive Post Here ... That are actually Againt the "Sites Posting Rules" of Encouraging Civil Debate.
The Assination of this Leader is upsetting to me, as would be the assination of anyother people or Leader of any other Government, regardless of his Nation or Religious Beliefe. That would include anyUS. sanctioned attempts on anyone, for the "sake of America or any other excuse".

"unfortunatley, this is what Muslim's do to people they disagree with because they know they stand no chance in the area of civilized debate. "

Please Stop you Anti-Muslim Bigotry and Ethnic and Religious Slurs ... It is against the Rules of this site & I am making a Complaint About You Again.
Try to find a "diplomatically correct" and Civil way to voice your opinions.
Your comments are Raciallsy & Religious Bigotry and Insensitive in a Steriotipical way.
Your Hate Messages should all be sessored & Edited to Conform to the the "Rules To Post Here".

All the worlds leaders need to stand up and condemn the murderous terrorists known as Hezbollah, and send them back to Iran where they came from.

Gaye5, shame on you for talking to a 13-year-old like that! Shame! That's a child you're using to play "We're God and you suck." A heart-broken child!

Wonder why the world hates us? Because of people like you who think only one people can be right and everyone else wrong. The world is complicated -- you must be a child yourself.

Perception, perhaps think about why no one is entering Darfur. Because they have nothing of value to our multi-national corporations. If Bush is so rockin', why is he happy to invade countries and do nothing to stabilize them afterward, as long as we maintain a stranglehold on their oil, but does nothing in the Sudan, or to China, who invaded Tibet, or to Saudi Arabia, which has the fewest democratic elements in its government around, and which funds Bin Laden and terrorists like him? Oil. This is not a brain teaser. It's easy.

Lebanon, the world is complicated, so complicated that no one really understands why humans do what they do. Any religion can be used for good and evil, and has been. Listen to you heart and to God, in whatever voice you hear it, and you will know what to do. You are a good person already, I can tell. Americans too, are complicated, and some of us understand that good people come in all forms, as do bad. You will get through this and be alright.

To CBS: Why not show the picture of the man killed ?

Didn't Cond. Rice just meetwith this brave man ?

Lebanon22-11, you are obviously a thinker, you can be proud of yourself.
We in the west do not want war, this is why our fathers decided that a demrocracy was the answer, where the government is elected by a majority of the people. Of course it is not perfect but the beauty of it is that if the majority isnt happy with what the government has done they kick them out next elections...war comes about for us as people who do want war try to kill us. we dont go to war for a slight or a remark, but we will try to protect others, and sometimes we have been wrong in doing that..
Dont be hurt by what you read in remarks here, as if you saw world wide carnage done by another religion, you would also be against that religion, and even though there are wonderful people in that religion it taints the whole lot. There have been over 6668 terrorist attacks since sep 11th, done by Muslims, and that is not counting the horrors going on by Muslims in other countries. If you havent already done so I would suggest that you read the Quran yourself, as I have done (with parts of it), and see why your brothers are doing what they do and see if this is what you want for your life and children... then read what many ex clerics have to say about Islam.
