91. Mike (29) offers quite the novel reading of Torah.
sk ,   USA   (07.30.06)
Very good, Mohammed, uh I mean Mike. Thanks for that Moslem reading of Torah. Of course, the delay in reaching the Land was to allow those who had sinned to die off before reaching it. Sheesh. Do you believe anything that your Musselman mullahs tell you?
92. ... and Nicolae, modern Greece
sk ,   USA   (07.30.06)
has nothing to do with the glory of ancient Greece. (And having been in modern Greece, I know what I am talking about.)
93. Crush the Islamic Fascist
Scott ,   Tennessee,USA   (07.30.06)
Israel must annihilate them.They are the bearers of death and destruction.As long as the world continues to hate Israel there will be no peace.God will not allow it.
94. WAR & FOOLS
Cluster McBoffin ,   London England   (07.30.06)
Yo my brothers when you preach hate sometimes the devil shows up. War is hell and death it's master. When the real slaughter occurs you idiots will beg for peace. Sun Tzu, Hannibal and Genghis Kahan did war right, you people are playing a game. This is not WAR.
95. oh but its ok to suicide bomb in a pizza parlor?
ab ,   USA   (07.30.06)
When generations of children are taught to hate....are not given books to read....you get the current social climate in the middle east. History teaches us there is one solution...kill them before they kill you. The loss of civilian life especially the childern is tragic. This is what you get when you kidnap soldiers and hurl rockets into your neighbors yard. When to hide you bring rockets into civilian homes. Cowardly rats caused this current crises not a people trying to stop rocket attacks. Eventually it will be time to get the the source....IRAN IS NEXT...never mind strategic bombing....1 nuke or 2 you think 54 civilians was too much? You havn't seen anything yet. Remember history...these uneducated(not all) hate mongers need to be killed. I wish for peace but you cannot make peace with hate filled brain washed islamofacist. Kill or be killed..its that simple horrific as it is. Welcome to the 21st century.
96. #5 Nail on the head
Gabe ,   Dallas TX   (07.30.06)
Radical Islam sets up their own women and children in harms way. They teach that this is an honor and mesh it into their false religion to use and control. The outcome? You guessed it. Israel is the bad guy for killing children and the ones who set up their own women and children to die, knowing full well they would, cry foul. Its and old trick that has been used for a long long time and guess what.. It still works.. The cows fall for it every time. Just remember, in the end, evil will be good and good will be evil.
97. #59 chris, lol
Garrett ,   TX   (07.30.06)
Chris, Israel's inhumane aggression? Hisbollah / Hamas started the whole mess. So if someone shoots rockets at you from an apartment building, you just say "Aw shucks they came from an apartment building... guess there is nothing we can do." as 10 more are fired from the same location..... Hisbollah uses theirn own people as shields. THEY are the ones who are evil and cowards and should reap whatever hell they have coming to them.
98. #66..Islam like David Koresh
Chad ,   AZ, USA   (07.30.06)
I wonder if we will see the same sort of thing play out with Islam that we did with David Koresh in Waco, TX? The devotion to these leaders and the leaders apparent freedom to exact any type of violence they want in the name of God. Perhaps Mohammed will eventually be the nape around the Arabs necks. Sad really.
99. #59 OK mister smart guy...
Chad ,   AZ,USA   (07.30.06)
Why dont you write the PM of Israel and let him know what they should do in this case. tell them how to get rid of Hissbullah. You sound so smart that you ought to know what will work. If you had cancer, you would have to go through terrible radiation treatment. It is HELL, but in the end, you may be luckey enough to rid yourself of cancer. YOu may have to have emergency surgery to remove cancerous elements. It is also HELL, but necessary. So lets hear your magical solution smart guy.
100. To #63...
Scott ,   Fargo, USA   (07.30.06)
Nicolae, May I remind you of what the Muslims did to Greece long ago? The Ottoman Turks carried the banner of Islam into Greece in 1354...
101.  #29
Michael ,   Turlock, USA   (07.30.06)
Mike, the word is spelled P-E-A-C-E, NOT piece.
102. Lebanon
Kelly Flynn ,   Seattle, WA   (07.30.06)
It's outragous that the US (my country) supports this action against the innocent people of Lebanon. These terrorist factions have seized control of Lebanon, with the support of Syria and Iran, using the innocent people as there shield, and the short sighted aggresive Isreal has fallin into a trap that will pit the world against them. At some point the US will stop with support, I hope.
103. Stuck in a cycle
Luke ,   Ohio USA   (07.30.06)
I for one am tired of this cycle of violence in the Middle East. I'd like to wash my hands of all of it. America needs to become energy independent and adopt an isolationist foreign policy. No more immigration. kick out trouble makers. The problem is that none of the middle east combatants REALLY want peace. Actually they want to extinguish the other. It's obvious. It's not America's responsibility to stand between "adults" so determined.
104. To #63, Nicolae
Nathan ,   San Diego, USA   (07.30.06)
Nicolae, I think you greek are going the way of the French. You think if Israel is gone that the violence stops? Who's big satan and who's little satan? Greece is on their hit list too, they just haven't had the resources for you yet.
105. Blame themselves
Joe Pepe ,   New York USA   (07.30.06)
I never see Muslims take to the streets to demand peace. They only shout "Death to..." and that is what they recieve.What kind of person would celebrate his child blowing themselves up?They have a sick culture and it is failing them.
106. Sh*t happens
PaleHorse ,   Beirut, Lebanon   (07.30.06)
Any civilians south of the zone described by Israel are asking for trouble. The area was leafleted, it's fairly simple - get out or die. Shame on Hizz for putting these people in such danger. Were they allowed to leave, or fooled into believing they were safe? Either way, excellent propaganda victory for Hizzb. Pat yourselves on the back and wipe the blood off your hands.
107. Senior officer: 150 rockets launched at Israel from Qana
gerd schulz ,   germany   (07.30.06)
Senior officer: 150 rockets launched at Israel from Qana Chief of the IDF Operations Branch, Maj. Gen. Gadi Eisnkot, said in a press conference that "the IDF operated against terrorist target in Qana. The village has been used, since the onset of the confrontation, as a refuge for terror and a launch site for some 150 rockets at Israel, in some 30 volleys." According to the general: "Since the first day of the fighting, we warned residents of southern Lebanon that they should distance themselves from terror operatives and launch sites, for their own safety. We dropped pamphlets, announced it in the media and operated in a gradual manner and, unfortunately, Saturday night civilians were killed, whom no one had the intention of attacking."

108. rioting in beirut
steven kahen ,   great neck, usa   (07.30.06)
What else do you expect these people to do? If Hizbollah is the target, why are so many innocents being slaughtered by the IDF? Is this a measured response? Do you have to bomb Beirut to create a security zone?
109. Liars and Cowards...Allah is far from both
Ali Shabaz Mohammad ,   Philly, USA   (07.30.06)
They have no peace because they do not believe in The One True God. They believe in a lie! Those people who lost their children only have themselves to blame...they have allowed their country to be overrun and controlled by terrorists (including the Islamofacist states, Iran and Syria) They have allowed this because they are cowards, they will not stand and fight for their freedom from these liars, Those who corrupt the Holy Word of Allah. The liars themselves are cowards, they send their children to die and use the innocent as shields. They kill the innocent children of their enemies, enemies they keep making to use as a scape goat. these are not warriors and they are not holy, they are dogs and should be left dead, rotting in the streets. These terrorists are nobodies if peace takes hold, that is why all the appeasement from the west and Israel makes no difference at all. You want peace? No more death? Then submit to Allah's Will! What is is His Will. The cowards must learn to stand, to speak the truth, and wipe those away who would corrupt The Holy Teachings Allah The All Merciful. "Glory to Thee, O Allah." And "Peace" will be their greeting therein! “Peace to whoever follows the right guidance! To proceed; Submit yourself, and you shall be safe.’”
110. It's nothing new
John ,   NZ   (07.30.06)
This human shield trick has been used by Saddam Hussein before. And it's can really score good sympathy points for the world to see. I am sure, where there are Hizbulla fighters with rocket launchers, women and children will be herded beside them. And when hit, women and children will be pulled out of the rubbles with worldwide TV cameras on. It amazes me as to how many stupid ppl are suck into this trick, including Kofi Adnan aka Dirty Money Launderer.
111. Israel War
Jennifer ,   USA   (07.30.06)
Stop this stupid war and all the violence? Must the world be reminded that is was Israel that was and is the victim of repeated attacks from Muslim fantics?
112. z
z   (07.30.06)
youre an idiot. Isreal is killing these poeple because of hated.
113. Useful Idiots in Arabic
John ,   USA   (07.30.06)
Hundreds if thousands of black Christian Africans and black anamist Africans are being raped, disposssed, and slaughtered by the Islamo Fascist Arab militias sent out into the Darfur region of Sudan by its muslim Arab government. But we see no mass protests among the "unwashed Left" of Europe. Could it be that the unwashed left is both antisemitic and racist? In the meantime, Somalian Islamo facists are attacking Christian Ethiopia. Where are the "unwashed leftists?" Why no protests? In his time, Vladimir Lenin called them "Useful Idiots." Nazrallah and bin Laden call them "useful idiots" in Arabic as they dance in their Euro cities to their world music with their rotten sandals and green hair, tattoos, condoms, and nostril pins, stomping their filthy feet on the Star of David and the American flag.
114. Grow up you naive liberal appeasers
Scott ,   Lancaster Pa   (07.30.06)
It seems that we are condemned to repeat the mistakes made prior to WWII. Sometimes in life, things just have to be done...we may not like it, but the window for avoiding the death of tens of thousands or millions of innocents is getting increasingly narrow. We cannot reeducate these people. providing free healthcare will not help. After school basketball is not the answer. These people have decided to wage war on the west. Maybe they have some legitimate complaints...maybe not. They are not interested on coming to the table to talk peace. They would only do so to restock their weapons caches. Israel has offered land...no peace. The USA, and EU offered Iran nuclear energy...we're still waiting. Endless talk just leads to them being stronger and that leads to more deaths. As long as we appease them and SUPPORT THEM with our words, policies (like all those LIB. and DEM. TRAITORS in the US congress and UN) and our finances we are the ones who are guilty. If we stand by and allow this to continue to happen to Lebanon and Israel, we are guilty. To those who want to hold hands, sing "give peace a chance" and allow these twisted bastards free reign, grow up, and stop playing games with innocent lives on both sides. Last time we played this game, we had no choice but to invoke "the nuclear option"...Last time we played this game the Allies won (thank God)...but the price paid made everyone losers.
115. Hizbollah is directly responsible
Rod ,   Mount Vernon USA   (07.30.06)
Those that have eyes will see - Aus. Herald Sun photos of Hizbollah operating in residental areas of Qana - http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,,19955774-5007220,00.html And the civilians in these areas have been warned with leaflets for days to evacuate. Hisbollah has shamefully placed these children in harms way for propaganda purposes. They are the scourge of the earth.
116. Let's Compare - They rejoice while we lament
Avraham   (07.30.06)
Muslims call for annihilation of the yahud, the want ever israeli civilian dead or suffering. The Hizbullah deliberately targets civilians. Muslims the world over REJOICE when jews or christians are killed. We stupid jews lament that civilians die and go out of the way - at our own peril - to minimize civilian deaths. As ugly as it is, Israel needs to take off both gloves and be let to go at them without restraint. Maybe when Hizbullah finally DOES hit Tel Aviv with a missile, the lefty politicians will allow the IDF do what they've been begging to do - annihilate Hizbullah.
117. Don't let the ARABS stop us from bombing where we need to
Jim ,   Atlanta USA   (07.30.06)
Hiding admist civilians will only stop when the West bombs the hell out of them
118. Lebanon
william hubbard ,   los amgeles   (07.30.06)
The hezbollah jihadists went looking for trouble with their missiles and found some. The Arabs go by the credo "Women and children last." . Doom be upon them. They rejoiced at American casualties on 9/11, so doom be upon them!
119. lebanon
william hubbard ,   los angeles   (07.30.06)
You are a hypocrite, plain and simple. Where is your protest of Arabs rocketing Jewish civilians, and kidnapping and murdering people off the street? in the end, it's "mind over matter" I don't mind your opinion, because you, in your hypcracy, don't matter!
120. Newt was right...this is WW III
Shawn ,   San Diego USA   (07.30.06)
The only politician that i see consistently addressing the major issues of the US and offering intelligent solutions is Newt Gingrich. He has identified WW III as already underway and exploding throughout the world, including in Israel and Lebanon. There is no "cease-fire" coming anytime soon...likely not for years. This islamic fundamentalism will be addressed in our time and the conclusion wil certainly be a submission by Islam to the will of the US. We are ready to fight here and now, and we will join with Israel. When Newt runs, I will vote for him, then join him to fight the throat-cutters. God bless the USA and Jesus Christ. Not sure about that bloody warrior Mohammed who is now some prophet?
