Loving the pro-Israeli (or at least anti-Arab) bias in the media. Some things never change.

It's not normally this bad. The news is obviously attracting flies.

The news seems pretty factual to me at this point, and unbiased. Sorry if explaining the facts in a straight forward manner isnt up to your standards of murderers and terrorists being called freedom fighters. I guess that is the normal unbiased media you are referring too?

Do you ever feel the need to re-think, maybe, just maybe, it's not that the entire world is wrong, but maybe there is life outside Chomsky and your top 3 favourite Post-Zionist authors?

[/ QUOTE ] "The entire world"?? That would be the American media, the chest-thumbing politicos at the mercy of AIPAC and the gullible portions of the American public, right?

How about the G-8 announcement today? Nah, I guess they aren't importent.

Yuv,

The only numbers I see being reported are casualties of Israeli civillians/soldiers and Lebaneese civillians. I haven't seen even an estimate for the number of Hezbollah cas ualties....are you getting this info in Israel? If not, why aren't the IDF providing even rough estimates?

I have heard that 3 Hizballah members have been killed so far. Great work by the IDF with its heartfelt concern for civilians; three fighters and 100 plus civilians. Nice going.

Yeah boy, go figure that it might be tough to hit Hezbollah members (or even to determine if the people youa re actually hitting are Hezbollah), when the hide amongst the civilian population, wear no uniforms, and engage in Guerilla Warfare.

You're right, I guess attacking indiscriminately and hoping a few fighters are bagged in the mix is the way to go. Who does that remind me of?

You're right, I misread it as him talking about the predominance of pro-Israeli posters here. My mistake.
