US is so stretched in IRAQ and AFGAN. IRAN and SYRIAN has planned their revenge very stratigiaclly. How stupid are these Americans!!!

He described the situation and what would happen very accurately. I hope that the USA, EU, UN, and Israel will take his comments seriously and stop the BS of the Syrians and Iranians and all those blood thirsty and peace haters Muslim terrorists and fundamentalists.

This war is not justiable at all. It makes me really mad as to what the Israelis are doing to the Lebanese people . You are killing civilians. The lebanese people are the victims in this war. The jews want to take over Lebanon...bottom line. Just like they took over Palestine in 1948. All this about the 2 soldiers is just BS.

Israel behaves as barbarians. For 2 kidnapped people they killed over 600 in return ( 300 times more) .definitely they are not a fair nation, they are worst than the nazi. This is the true - despite of the lies that they say to the others nations and to their soldiers. What if in return the arabs will kill them 18000 inocent civilians ? ( that is also 300 times more people !!! ) shame , lot of shame to you !!! do you like to be named KILLERS ? not, but you are ...

The land of Israel are for the real people of their own tribes before their Father Abraham,No Body Can Defeat Israel because it is the Promise of the Almithy GOD and they are no Longer in Bondage like what happened in the days of Moses they have the right to defend their country and protect the innocent civillians from any invaders or Satanic Mind of terrorist

I am really sure Israel can defeat Iran and teach those fools a lesson. But my concern is that Israel being in such proximity to the most idiotic countries in the world, might face huge losses by that. A simple home made missile can easily cause damages to israel because of the presense of barbarians all around.

im not a US fan but Jp have ever thought what would happen if there is no deterent like the US? what would stop Iran from creating havor in the middle east? Dont think that Australia would be spare if this extremist are not disarm. Just look what happen in Bali, Indonesia.

It's the USA and NATO job, not Israel's though. Those peace haters regimes MUST be exterminated and used as a lesson to the whole world. North Korea needs the same as well.

to disarm terrorist we must first disarmed the israelis

Iran has one thing stuck in its little pea brain. That is destroying Israel. They say that all Israel does is fight and terrorize nations. That wouldn't happen if terrorist organizations such as Hamas and Iran would leave them alone. Get a clue Iran, you mess with Israel...be sure that the US will not stand by. Wouldn't be a good idea to start another World War...

walid jumblatt has always been a civilized pragmatic leader of the druze people and more than that he has always had the interest of a free lebanon at heart. whether he allies with israel or not, he is a shrewd observer of his country, its politicians and its enemies. while he may not love israel, he knows that syria and iran have sinister motives in lebanon. i truly believe that WW 3 has begun. and while the leaders of their respective countries try to position themselves so as to come out of it on the side that wins, this war is a war between fanatical islam and the christian west, but is being blamed ONCE AGAIN on the jews--who would dearly love to make peace with its neighbors, find a workable solution to the palestinian problem that does not result in its own demise. ahmandejad is the fascist of our time and he and his regime need to be reigned in for this to end.

I forsee no quick resolve or end to the chaos spinning out of control across the mid-east. Keep in mind that religious hatred has historically been run amuck for thousands of years in the middle east - with generation after generation born into a lifestyle of suspicion and hatred. Pinning blame on one another serves no end, only feuls the fire. Hezbollah, hamas, israel, usa, syria, iran.... every party is equally guilty and condemable unter international law. No end in sight. Escalate, escalate throughout the ages.

Is this the US president's posting? Sounds like it, I mean the attiture and the intellect. I really admire your Cowboy attitude, an excellent attitude to be adopted by any countries who got loads of arms from US. Kickbut my friend, while you still got it. Oh yeah Texas, is where all world leaders should go for training.

You have the wrong culprit here its not Israel thats the terroist community i have not heard of one israeli terrorist going to another country and blowing himself up and killing innocent people of every country type the Arabs have been trying to wipe the Hebrew people off the face of the Earth for many years Get real man

the islamists hate you too by the way and would just as soon kill you as they would the jewish people wake up dude unless you are islamic to and agree with what they do and if you are and agree with them then get out of the usa and go help them live in their country and get out of here

hey im from texas too man and dont appreciate your words are your tone its people like you that hate other people in your on country that make good terrorists.

a bunch of morons on this page! Do you all know anything about world affairs and diplomacy??? go read a book or something.

Well, Arabs or Persian were not the one stablished the state of Israel, so there shouldn't be an Israel from the begining. If that was not for the profit of US, there was not any conflict in Middle East ever, and for that reason there never will be a peace. now you can swear at this or that as long as you like, it wont change a thing.

I think #45 and #52should visit Iran together ,then ask #64 for lessons in military victories. To one and all, this is no joke but will get you all lauging yourself silly. Go to google, type in " french military victories" then press " I'm feeling lucky "

YOUR STUPID COMMENTS REALLY SHOW HOW CLUELESS AND GODLESS CANADA IS.

SEE THIS IS WHY YOUR COUNTRY SHOULDN'T HAVE ABANDONED GOD. IF YOU HAD BEEN READING YOUR BIBLE, DEAR JOHN, YOU WOULD KNOW WHY THIS IS HAPPENING AND WHAT IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN TO DAMASCAS.

Are you high?? Your Persian agents killed innocents in South America. You export blasphemous & hate filled propaganda. Your Ayalollah's turned Islam into a religion akin to devil worshipping. Your moronic president incites tries to incite the Muslim world to rid Israel off the map and denies the holocost ever existed. And now your government denies it gave weapons to Hizbolla. Oh DUH!!! I remember your 1979 reveloution. I remember your "students" holding hostages of innocent Americans. Peaceful my ass. Your government exports and trains terrorists to fight for them. Preach that crap to the ignorant and poor. That's how Mao won China over the Nationalists. Good statagy for the late 40's. I think (hope) the world is wiser now.

While true Israel uses many American weapons, they have also developed many of their own and have actualy improved many American weapons. BTW: Those tanks you see on TV are Israeli, not American. Also, what testing of American weapons? They are actively in use in Iraq and Afghanistan.

We are NOT stupid, only our government is. But we were stretched thin and losing the beginning of WWII. I think we did OK.

It is hard to believe that in a fine city of Boston can exist such a moron as you, Thomas Hodge. Why don't you ask about Israeli civilians who have been under constant bombardment and terrorist acts from Hezbolla and Hamas for decades? We had just one such event in the USA on 9/11 and the life of the USA and the whole Western world has not been the same since. We're pushing back and are fighting our own war against those who caused this (and a series of smaller such) events. Israel lives under this assault since her Birthday! Next time you demand someone to lay their DEFENSIVE arms down, go into the line of fire and shout from there! I'd like to see what exactly will be your cry!

Bravo, #51!!!!!

Mr. Junblatt is the leader of minority Druze community whose loyalities are split between Lebanon and Syria. Quite a few of his sect are active members of Israeli Defense Forces. The very fact that he can express his views vocally without a fear of reparisal speaks volumes about the tolerance of mainstream Lebanese community, be it Muslims or Christians. Hezbollah is not a fringe operator like the Druze, they have a respectable place in the Lebanese politics.

you are Naive, my friend. Your President has sworn to fight against and eliminate Israel. Is that a peaceful ideology?

No cease fire until isbola is cripled this movement is a pest to not only the isreali people but also the peacefull muslims in the region.

When an army is inside of other country, this is wrong. What if I dont like your father and come in your house and kill your sister ? There is no excuse for murder, no excuse ! Anyone that invade other country is a dirty murder ! No excuse for murders. Lebanon shoud sue the Israel for their homes destruction. EACH citizen should sue the Israel for that ! they create no civilization, they only destroy as the savages. The one that comes with the bludgeon cannot invoke any God because God is not a killer. God is LOVE, not HATE ... for the civilization of 21 century all those killers are a shame for the world : they want to take revenge from other nations for what they suffered from nazi, which is simply sick and childish ...
