Re: "I'm not fooled by your language painting Israel and US as the worlds real terrorists and hate mongers."

There is no need for painting. The truth is self evident for those who choose to investigate.

"Where alone in the Middle East is there his dream of an Arab middle class of sorts? Where do Arabs have good schools? And where is there adequate medical care? Ask the over one million Palestinians who live in a democratic Israel."

This is a perfect summing up. It reminded me that during the Am. Civil War, the most prized possession in the C.S.A. was a Union gold dollar. That must have really bugged Jefferson Davis.

The Union forever.

The scariest thing is when I read someone like FeelFree1 who is not capable to distinguish between right and wrong. In his/her im becile mind the wrongs that Israel committed (which were far less intentional then circumstantial) seem to make the arabs or Iranians soemehow better. FeelFree1 is mentaly uncapable to fathom the evil that is being nursed by Ahmadinajad, an evil coveted by the mullahs and the Khomeiniists regardless if the Jews were in Israel or not.
Sorry FeelFree1 I cannot call you anything less than an im be cile. Read some history, especially the rise of fascism and communism

Oops...

I neglected to include the link to the story about the hapless victims in Lebanon this past summer.
It is as follows:

Did someone say say something about HEZBOLLAH kidnap murder and torture. Sounds like the US and Israel. Wonder where his mind has been the last
century. I saw numerous people escape and released
from {TERRORIST)return looking better and not one mentioned torture or maltreatment. Not so of Bush's GRIMM INQUISITORS!

Here are some reports about the war between Israel and Lebanon this past summer. One can't help but empathize with those poor Lebanese.

Here is a short clip that shows the conflict between the two rivals in Israel. Brace yourselves.

Feelfree1 - Do you live in the U.S.?

FeelFree1,

I'm not fooled by your language painting Israel and US as the worlds real terrorists and hate mongers.
Is it not true that free societies are pluralistic, prosperous and democratic? Does this describe Saudi Arabia, Iraq under Saddam or Iran? Perhaps Afghanistan under the Taliban, Pakistan or Somalia? No? And why is there such vile hatred and barbarism taught in the schools, the Mosques and cultures of these countries? I've traveled to many countries and daily work with people of many cultures and I have never, ever witnessed such hatred as I see in cultures that are dominated by the religion of Islam. There is nothing more I need to know about the cause of middle-east conflicts.

To FeelFree1: Israel%u2019s invasion couldn't have had anything to do with the kidnapping of Israeli soldiers could it? You know, the ones that were taken when the tunnels were dug into Israeli territory? None of what you are trying to claim as an Israeli atrocity would have occurred if the soldiers weren%u2019t kidnapped. Maybe cause and effect is a foreign concept to you.

[feelfree1]

Re: "Meanwhile, some members of the Iraqi Study Group apparently think that since Israel%u2019s neocon surrogates got us into Iraq, their puppet master must pay the price for getting us out."

At least they got one thing right.

rharrin1,

Re: "Terrorists shooting and hiding behind women and children are the reason for their deaths..."

Israeli apologists have often offered this pathetic excuse for their miserable performance. However, the truth is that the only group that we know, FOR SURE, to have a chronic history of using "human shields" to hide behind, are the Israelis themselves.

The Israeli Supreme Court finally banned the Israeli policy of using "human shields" in October of last year.

www.adalah.org/newsletter/eng/oct05/1.php

However, he Israeli leadership has demonstrated its contempt for the rule of law and for common decency, so there is no reason to think that the Israelis are complying with the "human shield" ban. What's more, there have been several subsequent reports that this Israeli tactic continues.

Not only would the Israeli claim that their "enemies" are hiding behind "human shields" fail to justify their reckless slaughter of civilians, even if the claim was true, but the Israelis have no room to criticize anyone for employing a tactic which they have a history of embracing themselves.

Try again.

[rharrin1]

FeelFree1

Are you a towel head?
Terrorists shooting and hiding behind women and children are the reason for their deaths, or should the Israelis say look civilians we can't fire.
I suggest you you remove your head from your *ss maybe you'll be able to see.

Re: "Perennially beleaguered Israel, for instance, was hit all summer long with rockets from Lebanon and Gaza, as the world watched and kept score in an absurd new game of proportionality: Israel was to be blamed because its hundreds of air strikes against combatants were lethal, while Hezbollah was to be excused for shooting off thousands of rockets aimed at civilians because of its relative incompetence."

The fact of the matter is, of the 150 some Israelis killed by Hezbullah fighters during the recent Israeli invasion of Lebanon, 2/3 of those killed were Israeli military casualties.

By contrast the vast majority of the more than 1300 people killed in Lebanon, at the hands of the Israelis, were civilians, and most of those were women and children.

So, it is safe to say, that it is the Israelis who demonstrated "incompetance" in this conflict, at best, and willful mass-murder of innocent civilians, at worst, as was the case of the 4 U.N. civilian observers who were knowingly and intentionally executed by the Israelis.

Does CBS "fact-check" any of the garbage continuously spewed forth by the morons at the "National Review Online", or do they simply print whatever nonsensical garbage that these fools dream up?

[tejasdemo]

When are all these idiot pundits going to stop calling all killing in the middle east a "crisis" ?

It is the way these people live. It is not a temporary " crisis".

Maybe if we simply left the entire area they might figure out that working it out amongst themselves is a good idea. Nothing else works at all. Ever.

Re: "Anyone who feels the president of the U.S. is a greater threat to the world than the president of Iran is simply not living in the realm of reality and common decentsy."

Anyone serving as an apologist for the illegitimate Bush-puppet-regime, and for their global torture and mass-murderous crusade, has no place lecturing anyone about "decency".

[sharncedar]

notblue gives us typical Bush logic, a series of unconnected non-sequitors strung together as if they were a syllogism Let's look closer.

"Anyone who feels the president of the U.S. is a greater threat to the world than the president of Iran is simply not living in the realm of reality "

fair enough, that's an opinion.

"There is no other country that has given more for the cause of freedom, basic human rights and dignity than the United states "

True in the 20th century. But how does that relate to Bush? He hasn't given anything at all to anyone, just dodged the Vietnam war and snorted cocaine. He takes, not give. So how does that relate to the first statement?

"Those that don't agree with that basic truth needs to move to Iran"

Again, how does that relate to Bush. Bush is not the United States, he is not even loyal to the United States. He has been quoted as saying his Mexican illegal "mother" was as close to him as a mother. So even his childhood belongs to another country.

notblue illustrates well the odd, nonsense thinking that leads people to follow Bush.

hsmagst,

Here is a film for you to aquaint yourself with some of the disgusting barbarity of the Israeli terror-State:

www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOpB1x5Qzyg

The film highlights some of the atrocities committed against the civlians of Lebanon, during the recent Israeli invasion of that country.

[notblue]

Anyone who feels the president of the U.S. is a greater threat to the world than the president of Iran is simply not living in the realm of reality and common decentsy. There is no other country that has given more for the cause of freedom, basic human rights and dignity than the United states of America. Those that don't agree with that basic truth needs to move to Iran.

[hsmagst]

Lets see now; When was the last time I read about an Isralie suicide bomber walking into a market and killing civilians ...mmmmmmmm......never! Has Isreal taken action after a kidnapping or a bombing? Of course and just as they should.

What country in the middle east is a food exporting nation.....last I read it was only Isreal.....in fact Isreal has perfected drip irrigation to the point they have turned desert into lush orchards unlike the rest of the middle east. They have even offered to share the technology with their neighbors but have been turned down flat.....an Arab couldn't possibly learn anything from a Jew. Isreal is a shining example of what can be done in the middle east but will always be hated by the backward arab nations.
