1. Dreadful!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.09.13)
Dreadful, I tell you! Perfectly horrible! First you have all this "unexploded Israeli ordnance" exploding in Hezbollah munitions dumps. A total of seven such mysterious instances, by my count, in two years. Next, you have arms-ferrying convoys headed for Hezbollah strongholds getting mysteriously blown up. And now this. Oh, the humanity (chuckle -- yeah, as if the words "Hezbollah" and "humanity" belong in the same sentence)! Where will it end? Actually, I have a pretty good idea of the answer to that question. Let's see if Nasrallah does. Right now, he's too busy donning his best brown skirt. For good reason. Hezbollah's been put on notice.
2. Good luck to both sides...

9. Allah be praised he likes Jews more than muslims
zionist forever   (07.09.13)
This really is great whats going on right now Syria & Lebanon. The two threats to Israel in the north are killing each other. Assad is wasting all his weapons and soldiers on his own people and tearing the country apart whilst he does it so that means fewer weapons to use against Israel and when there is calm in Syria its going to take so long to rebuild Israel will be the last thing on their mind. Brave Hezbollah fighters are getting themselves killed in Syria. For the first time ever the arab world is condemning Hezbollah with Saudi Arabia going as far as calling them a cancer. Hezbollah strongholds in Lebanon are being attacked and their supporters are condemning the fact Hezbollah send their sons to fight in Syria which is costing them support back home. The more bombs that go off in Lebanon the more it will hurt Hezbollah politically and militarily.
10. Un gros coup dans le cul !!!
D. ,   Thiais(94)   (07.09.13)

USA   (07.09.13)
It's too obvious putting the blame on Israel...some organization or someone wants to make Israel the culprit.

13. Now if Europe would only...
Raoul ,   Israel   (07.09.13)
brand Hizbullah as a terrorist organization, this could help things along. From whatever stripe, no-one seems HAPPY with Hizbullah, except Assad.
14. 9. Allah Lat, *,*, for Muslims V Hashem
Norbus ,   Jerusalem   (07.09.13)
Interesting debate this; Maimonedes tried a compromise; He is wrong. Ha'Shem is NOT Allah. in 1967, Muslims got a taste of this Need a demonstration once more to leave us be.

16. Charbel is worried about Sunni-Shite secterarian strife?
A ,   Belgium   (07.09.13)
The best thing that could happen in the Middle East! The Shites beat up the Sunnis, and the Sunnis step in the Shite. Keep up the good work, boys! And look how quickly everybody is forgetting about the "palestinians" and their incessant whining and threats. Maybe they should help out and step in some Shite too.

27. To: Noodles at No. 23
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.10.13)
Do you expect Hezbollah to truthfully reveal its casualties? According to them, Hezbollah hasn't suffered losses in Syria. Yeah, right. Truth in reporting is not something with which Hezbollah has much experience. Israel has been solidly eliminating carefully selected members of the Hezbollah "leadership" -- that I know for a fact -- with nary a comment by Hezbollah. Nasrallah is viewed as sort of an Arafat (may his name be cursed throughout eternity) by the State of Israel. A useful idiot, allowed to remain standing while the real threats were eliminated. The instant Nasrallah outlives his usefulness to the State of Israel (however inadvertent) -- he's gone.
