31. Hez can end this
Rick ,   San Diego, CA, USA   (07.30.06)
Don't call on Israel to end this senseless bloodshed. They didn't start it. Call on the ones that hide among and behind civilians to end it.
32. War is cruelty!
Roger ,   Kansas   (07.30.06)
It seems to me that war must be decisive to work. As Gen Sherman believed, war must be terrible and awe inspiring for one side to give up. Israel may need to let out the tiger. The bad guys are surviving using world opinion to hold the good guys back. Sherman was the first guy to hold out an olive branch AFTER the South gave up.
33. No civilians
kent Blaker ,   Canada   (07.30.06)
Muslims target all Israeli citizens so it is only fair for Israel to do the same. What Israel needs to do is take the gloves off so that the Muslims know that they have come under the same rules that they have subjected everyone else too. Forget precision airstrkes..... do unto others as they do unto you.
34. Go throw some rocks at a Muslim store front
king ,   us   (07.30.06)
Makes me laugh that you actually think Iran will save you. Don't you understand that once a weaker nation sends out their WMD that they cease to exist. You people really do live in the stone age.
35. # 13
Lauren ,   Israel   (07.30.06)
I do not think that the killing of any civilians on either side is good, and I am very sad to hear about yet more innocents being killed. This time, it was "our fault". Yes, it must stop, I agree. They (Islamic terrorists) must STOP USING INNOCENT CIVILIANS AS HUMAN SHEILDS! They must STOP bombing Israeli civilians, the suicide bombers must STOP blowing Israeli civilians to bits. Tell me Elaine, are you so narrow minded and brain-washed that you only see one side? You obviously do not understand the mentality of our (yours too) enemy, for if you did, you would have cried out for the Lebanese being oppressed by Iran all these years, and threatened daily by the terrorists, instead of blaming it all on Israel. The American government should put pressure on Israel? Are you serious??? Don't be so daft for god's sake! Do you honestly think that we, the Israelis, want to kill Lebanese? Do me a favor and read a bit of the history of Lebanon and Israel before you make any more mindless comments about the Middle East. You should get down on your knees and pray to G-d that Iran does not unleash its hatred of the west on you and yours over there in the USA., but keeps it far away from you, where Israel has to deal with it. What will happen will make 9/11 look like a picnic. This has nothing to do with USA's support of Israel. The terrorists hate you because you are what they term as "infidels", and you can hate Israel just as passionately as you want, it doesn't matter to them, they will still want to kill you. As long as Israel is here, you are ok. If America withdraws its support from Israel, then start getting ready to be in YOUR bomb shelter!
36. War
Dave ,   Tampa, Fl   (07.30.06)
War is hell, always has been Nasrallah is responsible for all the deaths. Time to eradicate Hesbollah once and for all
37. There are no dead children
jimbo ,   Savannah USA   (07.30.06)
When Muslims/Islamists make terror against Jews & Christians, they justify it by saying we are infidels. When they get in over their heads and are getting their asses kicked they always make a big production of how we're killing only women and children. Does anyone remember the infamous fotos of Iraq's "Baby Milk Factory" years ago? These people are cowards who hide behind the skirts of their women and under the cribs of their children. Their Allah is a spiteful, ignorant deity and their religion has kept them from advancing as civilized humans. Israel must defeat them or like cockroaches, they'll continue to infest the region. If Hizbollah/Hamas were disarmed tomorrow, there would be peace. If Israel were disarmed there would be tens of thousands of dead Jews. There are no dead children, this is all propoganda to drum up hatred against the Jews.
38. vandalize UN building??? how can I oppose this !?!?! hahaha
Aaron ,   Ra'anana   (07.30.06)
please target the french embassy next - then the world bank!
39. What are the Israelis to do ?
Steve ,   Columbus, USA   (07.30.06)
so are you one who believes Israel should "negotiate" with a mindset that wants nothing more than to see all Israelis' dead ?these folks were warned ahead of time to move, we can conclude they were there because a) they were not permitted to leave,(by fellow muslims) or b) they were willing to "martyr" themselves AND their children, for the "cause" paraphrasing Golda Meir (sp) we will never have peace until the Muslims love their children more than they hate us. please Israel, beat these Islamo - fasicts animals into a greasy paste on the desert floor - it is your only hope for suvival as a nation
40. QANQ. HIZBULLAHS TRAP
bob ,   rockport USA   (07.30.06)
Hiezbulah has done it again using a childrens center to launch thier terrorist strike against INNOCENT Israeli citizens. And the Press has aided them in this. The World press thats always against the Israelis and USA have fallen for this again and again. It's sad that civilians have died but it is also sad to see the world duped by the hezbulah and the press. smarten up world or you will feel the terrorists attacks.
41. Islamist facist cowards
Chris ,   Buford, GA USA   (07.30.06)
If Islamist facist had any honor, courage and valantry they would raise a legimate army, navy and airforce and fight Isreal in the open away from cities, towns and villages. But because they know they can sway world wide public opinion by hiddening amongst the populace, innocent civilians die. When will hatred of Isreal cease? If they were to destroy Isreal, who is on their hate list next? Then if they do conquer the world and they still have hatred as their prime motivation, they will turn on each other. What a sorry way to live to awakening each morning to say "Who will I hate and kill today" instead of "Who will I love and help today">
42. finish the job, the world waits, we are tired of terriosist
krs ,   texas   (07.30.06)
43. Qana
ferrousmike ,   Detroit USA   (07.30.06)
There are no innocent civilians in Lebanon. They all proclaim their allegiance to Hezballah. Remember the Marines in 1983 that were slaughtered by Hezballah. This is payback.
44. Qana is a WAR ZONE, stupid!
David ,   Tel Aviv   (07.30.06)
It is not in Hezbollah's interest to get civilians out of the war zone. The dead kids are pawns in the propaganda war. So the most innocent suffer at hands of Hezbollah.
45. Hezbollha
Steve ,   NJ USA   (07.30.06)
Golly Gee, I wonder why theese poor people didn't get out of harms way???? Could it be Hezbollah wouldn't let them go???!!! Maybee the Leboneese should attack Hez. headquaters!! But, this is typical of our cowerdly Muslim populace!!!
46. negociations
gil ,   ashkelon   (07.30.06)
You know what Arabs and Western allies want to negociate? Guess !! Time table of more or less peaceful withdrawal from ALL Eretz Israel jews.Point.
47. thanks profet Bush, the world is safer as u said
BLACK JULY ,   everywhere   (07.30.06)
48. Lebanon's PM thanks Hizbollah for its "sacrifices"
gerd schulz ,   germany   (07.30.06)
Lebanon's PM thanks Hizbollah for its "sacrifices" Lebanese Prime Minister Fouad Siniora thanked Hizbollah on Sunday for its "sacrifices" In its war against Israel. "We are in a strong position and I thank the Sayyed for his efforts," Siniora said when asked about a Saturday statement by Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah calling on the government to take advantage of Hizbollah's steadfastness against Israeli military might. (Reuters) (07.30.06, 18:10)
49. Hezbullah attacks
David ,   Memphis, USA   (07.30.06)
why is Iseral condemmed for it protecting itself, and Hezbullah not comdemmed for firing 100's of rockets a day into Isreal. Double Standards.
50. Jihadi's are cowards
Jason ,   California   (07.30.06)
It's just further proof what cowards the jihadi's are. They aren't strong enough mentally, physically, or militarily to fight so they cower among women and children and blindly fire rockets...and then run back to the relative safety of their momma's bossum. There is nothing wrong with this strike from Israel; there is everything wrong with cowardly positioning your military assets next to civilians. Only an idiot condemns Israel. Only an idiot gives the arab sub-human trash a pass for fighting a war among civilians.
51. Use islam's rules of war.
Lee ,   Florida   (07.30.06)
Muhammad said in a recitation, and as reported in the Sunna, the following. Israel should heed the Messenger’s words and act accordingly. Quran, 8:57, “If you gain mastery of them in battle, inflict such a defeat as would terrorize them, so they would learn a lesson and be warned.” Ishaq: 587, “Our onslaught will not be a weak faltering affair. We shall fight as long as we live. We will fight until you turn to Islam, humbly seeking refuge. We will fight not caring whom we meet. We will fight whether we destroy ancient holdings or newly gotten gains. We have mutilated every opponent. We have driven them violently before us at the command of Allah and Islam. We will fight until our religion is established. And we will plunder them, for they must suffer disgrace.”
52. "It's America" ??!?!?!?
Keith ,   New Jersey   (07.30.06)
The man in the street of Beirut says "It's America" ?!?!? Why? what did the US Forces do ...Nothing....What did any other country BUT Isreal do...NOTHIING !!!! But agin its all they say America this and America that....They need a new slogan... They should ask what their own country or allies did or did not do ....
53. Arabs gone wild
John ,   Washingtn DC   (07.30.06)
Blame it on Hezbolla
54. Hundreds go Wild
O'Toole ,   Tallahassee, FL   (07.30.06)
These are probably the same people that danced in the streets celebrating the Twin Towers massacre. These are probably the same people that cheer when a murder bomber blows up a pizza parlor in Isreal. Barbarions all.
55. Cowardly Hizbullah
Erick ,   USA   (07.30.06)
The cowards shoot rockets at Israeli civilians while hiding close to the Lebanese people. I feel sorry for the Lebanese civilians who have died, but Israeli has showered Lebanon with more than ample warnings to get away from Hezbollah sites. The Lebanese should be angrily protesting Hezbollah and the way they endanger everyone by provoking and attacking Israeli. But no--- that would require that "the angry Arab street" use their heads and think rationally which seems to be an impossiblity. "Moderate Arab" is an oxymoron, or a fabled mythical creature. Any Europeans who demand an immediate ceasefire merely prolong the violence and avoid the root problem, which is the violent, unreasonable Arab street.
56. Middle east troubles
J Derxler ,   Wallingford CT USA   (07.30.06)
There will be no peace in this region untill there is a victory for one side,
57. riots
jrmartin ,   greensboro USA   (07.30.06)
To stop the bombings quit sending rockets into Israel! The moment you stop that moment Israel will stop. You idots are killing innocient people also. So shut up and take it for you are doomed for failure before God!
58. Comment not posted-WHY
Lee ,   Florida   (07.30.06)
59. You can't justify Israeli bombing...
chris ,   bernardsville, nj   (07.30.06)
the immorality of Israel's inhumane aggression against innocent civilians who don't have safe passage out of their apartments much less out of their country, is open for all the world to see. Israel's worst enemy indeed continues to be themselves.
60. Massacre?
Shane ,   Boise, United States   (07.30.06)
Hizbullah has only launched its rockets into civilian targets. Yet the press has never called those deaths a part of a massacre but some sort of retaliation. Israel was invaded by Lebanon, two soldiers taken from thier soil by Lebanon. Lebanon started a war and the press are cheering for the terrorists.
