What about the bombing of the Dolphinarium, or Sbarro's Pizza? Were those against international law? Don't remember hearing about it at the time.
To: Woodstock
Oh, shut up. The U.N. is a bloated, useless organization which has done not only commited crimes against international law but also against morality.

Tell that to Hizbullah!
I think we should send the UN to France and turn their building into a hospital for victims of Islamic terrorism.

Well, at least nobody else violated international law... and Hezbollah/Hamas are completely innocent...

The silly little fellow traveler doesn't realize...or has conveniently failed to take into consideration...that these filthy 9th Century knuckedraggers that Israel is up against INTENTIONALLY INTERMINGLE with civilians from where they operate in order to maximize fatalities among said civilians.
It's part of their strategy.
To: Woodstock
And just pray tell how anyone is supposed to tell the diff between the civilians and the terrorists since the terrorists are too cowardly to don a uniform or carry a flag?

What I dont get is why were not hearing about more Hezbollah casualties. Isreal has a lot of the precision weapons we have, and theyre knocking the crap out of Hezbollah targets. I assume we dont hear more about the licks theyre taking because there arnt any reporters near these strongholds, and Hezbollah is not about to admit "Were getting pounded."

UN Under Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs Jan Egeland told a press conference. Oh geez, not this dipwad again. Next thing ya how he will be complaining the US isn't sending enough money to Lebanon....

The truth is that Isreal has done a whole lot more to protect the civilians. The UN is a useless organization. Hey UN, go after Hezbollah for a change will you!

It is simple. A naval blockade is an act of war. Bombing bridges, which is what NATO did to Serbia, might be considered so also.

"If sealing off borders, if sealing off harbors, if bombing airports first and foremost means that innocent third parties cannot receive goods, cannot travel, cannot get to health facilities, cannot get their daily needs met ... Israel's blockade is obviously wrong" he said.So is suicide bombing, kidnapping civilans and hiding behind morons like you, you dope..

They should understand that there will be a response. It seems they want to provoke a response and they don't seem to care the slightest bit that it is the children, the women, the civilians that bear the brunt," he said.Yo, bubba! You don't think this might be Israel's response to their women and children being killed for decades, huh?

the good thing about a crisis is that it forces everyone to publicly choose sides.
