Gentile ,   Uppsala, Sweden   (08.25.06)
Why not encourage lebanese moderates now residing in the western world to go back to Lebanon and be a force for democracy, human rights and peace with Israel?
7. 4 True el nab. Who would want to live
freedom ,   canada   (08.25.06)
in a country run by a weak prime minister and truly controlled by the fascists of hizbullah. The only traitors in lebanon are the criminals that are part of Hizbullah. enough said.
8. IF the SLA are spys, then what does it
freedom ,   canada   (08.25.06)
make the criminals from Hizbullah? The government is very weak as well, and I would assume terrorists are very happy with the situation as they can now rearm. Do you like that situation Jack?

Aaron ,   OZ   (08.25.06)
Also, get world media attention directed toward the plight of these individual Lebanese and families. I don't care what artifice is used in order to make these people a cause celebre, they need the world to take notice. Perhaps in the next round, Israel can reform the SLA, as well as taking in recruits for it from around the world (the Lebanese Diaspora). As the latest campaign has shown, a sovereign nation can hardly be held to account for the actions of a militia within their borders, not even when that militia launches an attack on a neighbouring nation. Therefore, Israel could hardly be held to account for the actions of the SLA if they chose to use the equipment that they get given (by the USA of course) to start their own private war over the Israeli/Lebanese border, even to the extent of making armed raids/incursions into Lebanese territory. Basically, this would relieve the current situation, particularly if the SLA were equipped on a par with Hizbollah, although with the ability to call upon the IDF for aerial and additional artillery support as required. This would enable the SLA to take precedence over Hizbollah, who would only have the Lebanese Army to call upon for assistance. The way the world is now, perhaps this idea is a necessary progression, a wholly deniable war between the proxies of neighbouring nation states. This would take the war to Hizbollah, where they live. If this idea is deemed to have merit, and officers are required to lead these cadres, please contact me on the email address supplied. I have a great deal of experience in infantry and mortars, as well as speaking english fluently, the better to communicate with the volunteers from Australia/Canada and the USA.
13. B'H' they have Israel to turn to
Sam ,   USA   (08.25.06)
I guess Israel isn't just a safe haven for only Jews after all. Christian Arabs may know that all too well being that alot of the world could care less about them
14. to #4
Sam ,   USA   (08.25.06)
Any non-Islamic entity is your enemy. You haven't woke up to the fact that the rest of us have legitimate rights too and you bastards just hate that. Maybe that is why you are called "Islamic Fascists"? Use that pea brain for once
15. Not long before lebanon considers all Christians traitors
Bernard Ross ,   St. Anns Bay Jamaica   (08.25.06)
The only Patriotic lebanese will be a shiite muslim fundamentalist.
16. HOPE THEY ARE TREATED BETTER THAN PAST SLA
Arik Silverman ,   Milwaukee USA   (08.25.06)
This is not new: many SLA fled to Israel when Israel pulled out of Lebanon. And many went back to Lebanon, thinking prison was better than staying in Israel. The problem is that ISRAEL SEGREGATED THEM in Arab villages, where they were shunned and viewed as traitors to the Arab people. Let's hope this time Israel settles the SLA in places where they will receive decent treatment.

Islam’s Torture of Lebanon By Jamie Glazov FrontPageMagazine.com | August 11, 2005FP: Frontpage Interview guest today is Brigitte Gabriel, a survivor of Islam's Jihad against Lebanese Christians. Gabriel: I was raised in the only Christian country in the Middle East , Lebanon . When Lebanon got its independence from France in the 40's the majority of the population was Christian. We were merchant, descendents of the Phoenicians...In no time Lebanon became the Paris of the Middle East ... Gabriel: The Christians in Lebanon always had problems with the Moslems, but we never thought our neighbors would turn on us. That situation was aggravated by the influx of the Palestinians coming from Jordan after King Hussein kicked them out in Black September. That's what tipped the scale in Lebanon . Not only had Moslems become the majority but they now also felt empowered by the presence of the Palestinians and Yasser Arafat wanting to attack the Christians, take over Lebanon and use it as a base from which to attack Israel ... When the Moslems and Palestinians declared Jihad on the Christians in 1975 we didn't even know what that word meant. We had taken them into our country, allowed them to study side by side with us, in our schools and universities. We gave them jobs, shared with them our way of life. We didn't realize the depth of their hatred to us as infidels. They looked at us as the enemy not as neighbors, friends, employers and colleagues... A lot of Muslims pored in from other Muslim countries like Iran ... They came from Somalia , Sudan , Syria , Jordan and Egypt . The Lebanese civil war was not between the Lebanese, it was a holy war declared on the Christians by the Muslims of the Middle East ... They started massacring the Christians, city after city. Horrific events the western media seldom reported. One of the most ghastly acts was the massacre in the Christian City of Damour where thousands of Christians were slaughtered like sheep...They would urinate and defecate on the altars of churches using the pages of the bible as toilet paper... The majority of the Lebanese army was Muslims. Christians went to universities, not to the military. The Muslims began taking over military bases across Lebanon . They combined their forces with the Palestinians and formed what they called the Arab Lebanese Army and started attacking the Christians... Gabriel: My town was 2 and half miles from the Israeli boarder. We in our Christian town were faced with the combined Muslim and Palestinian forces waiting to slaughter us. We knew our fate, knowing what they have done to other Christian towns and cities in the rest of Lebanon ... Under the cover of darkness, few men from our town went to the border, flagged down an Israeli boarder patrol, explained the situation and begged for help... Israel agreed to help the Christians. Israel became our lifeline. The Israeli military would come during the night and bring food and ammunition to the military and milk for the children... The only reason we stayed alive is because Israel came into Lebanon and drove the Muslims away from the surrounding hills and set up positions in our town to protect us... Things got worse as Syrian, Libyans, Iranians Egyptians became enraged and flocked into Lebanon to fight the infidel Christians and Jews... The Muslims had one vision, to take control of the only Christian country in the Middle East and than attack Israel ... http://www.frontpagemag.com/Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=19016
21. Must save them
Ben ,   Israel   (08.25.06)
And of course there was NO "occupation". SLA is a legitimate authentic south-Lebanese force and shame on Israel's ruling elite for betraying them to the Muslim Hell of the Iranian puppets, the Hissbullah.
22. #5 you show your real democracy ....did they elect you?
rachel ,   usa   (08.25.06)
23. Let them in!!
lynne ,   austin, texas   (08.25.06)
Provide safe refuge for these people. Hezbollah is capable of carrying out these threats.
24. These Lebanese are real Patriots, Jack is an ArabTraitor
chanan ,   USA   (08.25.06)
Jack the Arab Jackal wants to hand over Lebanon to the heretic rulers of Syria and Lebanon.
25. Israel's biggest failure...
Dennis ,   Montreal, Canada   (08.25.06)
...in the whole Lebanese withdrawal fiasco 6 years ago was that they abandoned the same people that were protecting their border from Hizbullah. As we can see now, obviously Israel should never have withdrawn. But okay, skip that scenario... Even if you withdraw it's *incredibly* stupid to disband an effective fighting force which is completely on your side. Why did you simply not transfer every single member of SLA and their families into Northern Israel and not given them residency and citizenship, and a special unit status in the army? Why oh why?
26. #4
Mike Rice ,   USA   (08.25.06)
Is there anyone you don't hate???
27. To #4
Ben ,   Pennsylvania   (08.25.06)
So if they disagree with you and think That Hizbollah is the Enemy of Lebanon and Israel is a friend then they are unpatriotic traitors? Gee... I guess when the PLO controlled South Lebanon and raped murdered tortured anyone who disagreed, they were your friends too, and now that Hizbollah (Iran) tries to control it in much the same way you think they are Lebanon's friends. If the Lebanese actually controlled all of Lebanon, there wouldn't have been a war, and Lebanese citizen wouldn't have to choose which side to go for. Time for the Lebanese to think as Lebanese for themselves. and it is also time to take control of the land instead of being puppets of Syria and Iran. Do you really think Israel wants to be in Lebanon? Do you really think Iran gives a damn about Lebanon? You kicked the Syrians out, you showed you had balls then, now kick the Iranians out and run your own country. It is clear to anyone with a brain that Israel has no beef with Lebanon or the Lebanese in general. it just can't afford to ignore what Lebanon has ignored, a military extension of Iran on its border armed to the teeth with one and only one intent, the distruction of Israel. Kick them out, we can be great friends, or at least, not enemies.
28. Traitors
sal ,   usa   (08.25.06)
They deserve to be judged in a court of law for their treason!
29. DIRTY PEOPLE, TAKE THEM, THEY R JUST LIKE U!
observer ,   earth   (08.25.06)
30. Re: SLA in Israel
Dumbfounded ,   USA   (08.25.06)
So this is how Lebanon plans on activating its forces to protect Israel from its wonderful Hezbolleh milita, send them to live in Israel? Are they spies? Are they real cases of people needing humanitarian aide that can only be supplies by Israel? Why is Israel so generous to harbor families of its enemies? Pull the wool over my eyes, shame on you, do it twice, shame one me, Israelis surely should not be doing this. Let these people move to Syria instead.
