So much for all the hysterical Rice bashers of this morning who accused her of caving in and surrendering!

[EagleUSA]

As it should be. Judgement day is far from over.

[FlashBack]

Stand strong Israel!
Suspect everything the Hizzies claim!
The fact that the Hizzies were launching rockets from this location and then hours after the bombing the reports come in with all the women/children casualties...were all the men out arming rocket launchers out back at the time??

It would be good for Bush and Rice if they would take a position early-on, and not appear to be brokering a faux peace. Communications has been short-coming of this administration since 2000. There can be no faux peace, not any more. We know that both Bush and Rice know this. Let us hope they stick to their "guns" -- and show support Israel as the nation fighting for its existence, and its right to exist, that it is.

I'll just bet I can't figure out WHO those were? As predictable as heat in the desert.

[Mr. Mojo]

....declared that the United States is not interested in repeating former mistakes.

Encouraging.

[BenLurkin]

Justice demands the eradication of terrorists who intentionally launch missiles from behind 'human shields' of women and children.

They are vermin and must be exterminated.

[justshutupandtakeit]

And just WHAT produces the "appearance" that they have any interest in a faux peace? Why not that lil ole Treason Media that we all hate so well?

Even Fox's coverage is piss poor and more of the same as CNN with the hysteria factor turned down slightly.

How does the repeated statement that there will be no call for a "cease fire" which leaves Hizbolla capable of acting militarily get translated into a "faux peace"? Bush could not be any clearer.

[Paladin2]

So, was Quana a Hezzie attempt to gain sympathy for a cease fire?

She tried and was unsuccessful. It got thrown back in her face.

Rockets were coming from Qana. Israel owes no apology.
Every civilized person hates the loss of human life, but that is what war is. Hezbollah wanted war, and Lebanon allowed this to start on it's own soil. Attacks on Israel had to be met with force. A kiss just will not do.

[brownsfan]

Is there a rational explaination as to why when hezbollah targets ANYTHING, no one says a word.
When Israel targets a missle launch site, and civilians who had been warned, get killed, it's a huge problem?

Why the glaring double standard?

Then what was she doing Continent hopping if not trying to broker a PEACE DEAL...sampling their local cuisine?

Considering that 85-percent of Lebanese support Hezbollah (according to mainstream media polls), then I am hardly traumatized when and if 85-percent of the Lebanese population is killed in defending those same butcher terrorists.

[marron]

Gillerman stated that "it is important to recall that Hizbullah uses civilians as human shields. It shoots from the midst of the population, which proves the need for disarming the organization. They are holding the Lebanese people hostage."

Either Lebanon is hostage to Hezbollah, or complicit. They can't have it both ways. If they are hostage, then Israel is their liberator. They should be out in the streets doing everything they can to help drive Hezbollah from their stronholds.

If they are complicit, then they are complicit in Hezbollah's crimes, and complicit in their own destruction. Israel warned them to vacate the zone. They didn't. Decisions have consequences.

Oh, don't worry. They'll come out and accuse Rice of wanting to reopen Auschwitz before the weekend is out.

Rice has stood tall against Appeasing Eurotrash. Meantime, anyone who thinks that the Hezzies didn't know that the Qana thing wasn't going to happen ought to ask how this big Condi poster, mentioning the Qana "massacre", got published so fast.

Fix is in, folks.

Be Seeing You,

What a totally stupid thing to say.

[M. Espinola]

I agree with your comments>

Any "ceasefire" with those Islamo-Nazis will only benefit Iran, Syria and their terrorists cohorts. Israel, the US, the UK & other allies are combating the same jihadic enemy no matter the location.

[MarineNav]

Could it be that the Secretary was trying to negotiate a position where Lebanon agrees to a no hezzies allowed or tolerated?
