3. Linvi tells her UN delegation to start compaining
malcolm   (02.21.07)
What an A-hole. Hizbollah has practically doubled it's strength without a peep from Livni. That's what happens when you surrender.
4. Next time war breaks out the Zionist media will blame HEZ.
AR ,   USA   (02.21.07)
So who cares is Israel is breaking the UN resolution. Who cares if Hezbullah is breaking the UN resolution. When war starts up again everyone is gonna hear the same propoganda. (America & Isreal) "Hezbollah Terrorist violated the UN Resolution" "IAF planes are striking HEZ strongholds and infastructure" (The rest of the World) "Israel attacked Lebonan" "civilian casualties are mounting" "Israeli drones had violated lebonese airspace" "Hezbollah Guerrilas restocked on weapons" That is what Israel deserves you steal someones land you better be prepared to fight and die for it. This isnt the americas the arabs will fight to the death for their land and their isnt a disease to wipe them out.
5. Whose job?
Libneniyyeh ,   Lebanon   (02.21.07)
It is not the job of the Israeli army to disarm HA, and they have no business flying so low over Lebanese territories. For one thing, Lebanon is not keeping tabs on Israel, and the army are 100% justified in firing at Israeli jets because they are in our territory, and that is clear and simple. Disarming HA is an internal issue and can never be done by force.
6. The U.N. Is Doing Their Usual Good Job.
Terry ,   Eilat, Israel   (02.21.07)
I'm surprised they don't load the trucks for Hezbollah. And our idiot gov't calls this a victory. What a master-stroke of diplomacy to allow the UN to protect us. Boy, Olmert & Livni are real geniuses.
7. Try Stationary Blimps at the border
Ima Bleever ,   Anytown USA   (02.21.07)
That is what England did during WWII. Many were successful. They could do double duty: have encrypted webcams to keep an eye on neighboring countries, have heat seekers and other such instrumentation to detect and track missiles high or low. Solar power them so they never need to come down. Cover them in kevlar so they cannot be shot down. Have them on a mechanized tether so they can reeled in for maintenance. Lebanon cannot complain about a blimp that is on ISRAELI soil even if it is right on the line that forms the border with their country. Boo hoo. Be sure to paint a big smiley face on it just to piss them off. It should be Lebanon's job to patrol south Lebanon. If they fail, their leaders should die. That Gemal guy proves their leaders can be hit. Hold their leaders responsible for Israel's protection. Make THEIR tax money go towards your country's defense. Demand that THEIR tanks and their troops be stationed in their streets and southern towns and open countryside to defend your unarmed civilians. If they fail to protect your people from theirs, kill their worthless leaders. Do it openly and with the eye of the world upon the deal. Fair is fair.

14. Israel want to revenge
(02.21.07)
Israel is trying to exeplode the situation with Hizballah to revenge , the result of the last war still hurting Israel and it's recent government , Olmert wants to save his political future on the account or on the dead bodies of more Israelis and Lebanese people , but he should not go again in such adventure because he will not win anything and Hizballah knows the way in such wars ... such adventure will cost him imiaditly his chair .
15. #4 u retard ARab
Rehavam ,   Israel   (02.21.07)
where did u see thief who prepeared to die for stolen bag??? When u gona get it through your thick skull? Israel - jewish homland. and we DONT HAVE ANY OTHER. Unlike ARabs who stoll all ME and got 22 countrys. Remember ME is NOT for jarabs! Take Paris and Londonistan instead!
16. #4 and #5...the reasoning of a turtle....
DR ,   Florida, USA   (02.21.07)
First of all Israel stole no land from anyone. This accusation is just asinine. Second of all, disarming HA is not israel's job, but they will do it as long as there is a threat to its citizens. This is such a simple idea to understand, but you two have real issues with it. HA is a terror group, no matter how much you try to say otherwise. They terrorize innocent civilians in order to obtain political goals...pretty much the definitioin of terror. Israel has to defend itself and the UN is obviously doing nothing to stop HA from rearming and attacking Israel. So you put 2 and 2 together, if you can?
17. #15- and they certainly are taking London & Paris
Cameron ,   USA   (02.21.07)
18. Some day...
PETER SM ,   Melbourne, Australia   (02.21.07)
Israel will be on the receiving end of this kind of arrogant treatment.
19. Libneniyyeh
Ryan ,   Calgary, Canada   (02.21.07)
Actually dismarning hizbullah is Unifil's job as dictated in res. 1701 by the UN. As well as preventing rearming of hizbullah and Israeli violations of lebanese territories, including airspace. But Nasrallah claims they are rearming, the soldiers weren't released (another condition of the resolution) but if hizbullah is rearming instead of disarming, the soldiers aren't released then they are in violation of the UN resolution. Therefore it can't be expected of Israel to uphold there end of the deal while lebanon does not uphold their end. It becomes one sided. Both sides need to follow suit. Israel flyovers are done for security reasons because Hizbullah is rearming, they have the right to act this way in the name of security. They are not attacking only doing recon missions brought about by the disregard of the UN resolution by Hizbullah. Also, lebanon has the right to fire at the IAF. Which doesn't help the situation, because once fired upon, the IAF will have the right to fire back. The only logical conclusion is, if Hizbullah would fulfull their obligations then this wouldn't be happening, their disregard of this matter will only further escalate tensions. Lebanon needs to assert it's authority over it's territory and bring hizbullah under it's control. If they cannot do this, they should request international assistance, if they turn the blind eye and allow this, then they are responsible for any repurcussions.
20. #5 - and how do you propose to disarm them
Judy Y ,   Los Angeles   (02.21.07)
if not by force? Do they understand any other language? Old secular Lebanon is gone. Strict Sharia law is coming. Any reaction?
21. To #4
casey ,   germany   (02.21.07)
I agree with you...
22. # 21 and 4 i agree with you both
papa jay   (02.21.07)
#15 you should take it easy. you seem stressed.
23. UAV shot down in Southern Lebanon
shanatova ,   australia   (02.21.07)
Why shoot down a UAV if Lebanon is keeping its part of the cease-fire. The reason that the Peace Keeping Force was brought in to create a buffer between Lebanon and Israel was to give the Hezbollah time to re group and re arm. The United Nations forces are just the smoke screen that Hezbollah requires. Do you think for one moment that the Hezbollah would acknowledge any kind of "peace keeping"/ They do not know what peace is. Hezbollah have a history of using the United Nations peace keeping forces for their own advantage. Hezbollah have used the UN Peace Keeping forces this time to buy time, whilst being restocked from "friendly" countries sympathetic to their "cause"/ I get sick and tired of the "finger pointing" by Lebanon against Israel, when Lebanon is violating the very essence of human rights by harbouring the Hezbollah. Human rights - only for the Arab world and not for the Jewish world. Come on! shanatova
24. To #11 - what about the assassinations?
Ima Bleever ,   Anytown USA   (02.21.07)
You only critiqued HALF my ideas. The other half involves only the cost of a taxi ride and an assassin's bullet. Critique THAT part of my plan, if you please.
25. #18, idiot from down under...
DR ,   Florida, USA   (02.21.07)
Please read #19's response. You cannot see things so black and white when they are so gray. Israel is not arrogant, they are just fighting for their lives...big difference mate.
26. #22, Papa Jay
DR ,   Florids, USA   (02.21.07)
It is hard for people to take it easy when there are morons like you in the world who side with terror groups out of pure hate for Israel and the Jewish people. Ther is no other way to explain why you would side with a terror group.
27. #5 Well Said Libneniyyeh
papa jay   (02.21.07)
Bravo!
28. #5
mark ,   ca   (02.21.07)
lebanon remind me of france during WWII.The only thing you are doing is opening your legs.
29. For DR)
Ali ,   Lebanon   (02.21.07)
IF you are real loyal to the so called Israel, why are you hiding in the US. hmmm it is hard for u to leave I guess, ur making alot of money there. Anyways, u said that Israel will disarm HB if they feel tey are a threat. Why did the war take place. I thought the goals were disarming hezbollah and getting the soldiers back. Ten days after that, Olmert realized this is not happening and lowered his goals which again were not achieved. Our army has the right to defend our boarder and soon really soon, if ur IDF continues fooling around u will have to deal with a duo. Chill out dude
30. DR you are big mouth with no brain .
(02.21.07)
The Palistinians and the Lebanese has more the right to fight for their lifes and their stolen land , since when the occupeirs has any rights ?? ... your case has no chance , it's case of time we or our children or our grand children will be the witnesses of the end of this case ... keep on dreaming or try to get your brain back .
