Default Re: Israel\'s Attack on Lebanon and Hezbollah

"The London-based Al-Hayat newspaper reported Saturday that Israel issued an ultimatum to Syrian President Bashar Assad, according to which a regional war would erupt within 72 hours if Damascus does not prevent Hezbollah attacks.

According to the report, a Pentagon source said that if Syria does not try to influence Hezbollah, Israel could bomb essential installations in Syria. The source neither confirmed nor denied rumors that Israel had given Damascus 72 hours to comply with international demands."

Note the glee with which the US and Israel greeted the departure of Syria from Lebanon just a few short months ago. Syria had long acted as a voice of restraint in Lebanon and were a foil to the militants in that country. Now the Syrians have gone and we left with only one true para-military force.

Now, Israel has the gall to ask Syria to step back in.

Sigh, the Israeli's and we in the US, have no idea what to do in the middle east. Correction, the Israelis know what they want ---> land and more land cleansed of all except their kind.

The US have become the toady of the Israel. We can do nothing except ship them more arms and wring our hands. More shame on us!

Huh? Where do you come up with this stuff? What "land" does Israel want? Geez. I thought you will learn something after 9/11.

Hezbollah is a terror organization that invaded Israel and killed 8 soldiers and kidnapped two more. What the [censored] do you expect Israel to do? Sit back, bend over? If the Lebanon government has zero control over southern lebanon and do not act to disarm the Nasrallah's terrorist organization, we will have to do so.

Seriously, WTF do you expect us to do? What would you expect the US to do if a terrorist organization invade and attack your country over and over? Oh, wait, I know. Invade their country and another country that has nothing to do with it.
