In a letter to the editor of the Berlin daily Der Tagesspiegel a Lebanese Shia explains how after Israel’s withdrawal from South Lebanon, Hezbollah stored rockets in bunkers in his town and built a school and residence over it.
""I lived until 2002 in a small southern village near Mardshajun that is inhabited by a majority of Shias like me. After Israel left Lebanon, it did not take long for Hezbollah to have the say in our town and all other towns. Received as successful resistance fighters, they appeared armed to the teeth and dug rocket depots in bunkers in our town as well. The social work of the Party of God consisted in building a school and a residence over these bunkers!
A local sheikh explained to me Laughing that the Jews would lose in any event because the rockets would either be fired at them or if they attacked the rocket depots, they would be condemned by world opinion on account of the dead civilians. These people do not care about the Lebanese population, they use them as shields, and, once dead, as propaganda. As long as they continue existing there, there will be no tranquility and peace.""

Sounds a lot like Communist wars of "National Liberation."
Wars of national liberation
Because open warfare against target governments would simply lead to defeat, the Communists always disguise their revolutions as civil wars. They camouflage their intentions by pretending to fight for the liberation of one class of people from another, using a divide-and-conquer technique against a nation's social structure. This method is referred to as a "war of national liberation," and it adapts its tactics to the unique circumstances of each country. Such a war can pit industrial workers against capitalists, as in Russia, Catholics against Protestants, as in Northern Ireland, blacks against whites, as in South Africa--or Arabs against Jews, as in Israel. The Communists do not openly identify themselves, acting instead as representatives of the supposedly "oppressed" class of people.
By painting their revolution as a spontaneous uprising of "oppressed masses," the Communists hope to convince the target population that it faces an unwinnable war rooted in fundamental social tensions. If the government is also paralyzed and cannot stop the terrorism, public morale quickly drops and the weakening government loses popular support. Believing that the revolution must eventually win, the population abandons active opposition to the terrorists and instead sues for peace at any cost. The perception ultimately becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy as the government collapses altogether.

Whether you are a Christian, Jew, Atheist, Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim or something else, your biggest enemy is Islam.
So why does the world keep falling for this BS?
Because leftists hate Israel and the US more than they hate islamo-fascists. It's that simple. Just like they were cheerleading for the USSR (Yes, you John Kerry, you fetid POS).
If only the media would report on this--Fox does a little bit, but often, they seem more on the side of Hezbollah.
...sound of crickets chirping...
Well, the next time you see the "peace marchers" milling around with their banners and signs, realize that no matter what the signs and banners say, what they are really saying is:
*I want to live under Sharia law as a slave of Islam
*I want to see more Americans massacred and tortured
*I want to have to live the rest of my life in a burqa and subservient to all men
*I hate liberty, and want to get rid of it
Those are the true messages.
The armies of Satan...
Tis is something you will NEVER hear about on MSNBC, ABC, CBS, or CNN.
Some dumb jerk reporter on FOX was comparing the attack on Bint Jabail with Dresden, for goodness sake!!! he showed his abysmal ignorance of the history of WWII.
bump for later
And the US and world media and useful idiots for terrorists among the world liberal movement fell for it. And these naive asshats have the nerve to give "neo-cons" their stupid little "tsks-tsks."
The odds on the DBM picking this up and running with it are prohibitive........against!
Wouldn't it be fairly easy for a reporter or UN observer to simply walk over to this building and see if it's a bunker?
The time is ripe to insist that the primary agitators of Jihad -- suffer from their declared war.
Damascus and Tehran should be at the top of the list for total destruction... TOTAL....
Semper Fi
Wouldn't it be fairly easy for a reporter or UN observer to simply walk over to this building and see if it's a bunker?
NO, it wouldn't
Why not?
If you allow your families and homes to be used as shields and launch pads by terrorist, you should expect to be killed with them
The leaders of the world know this. They are not stupid.
When the world leaders only start piping up after Israel misses a target in a civilian area it shows they are a bunch of anti-semetic jew-hating eh whole NAZIS.
I have a long shot theory as to why Israel is going after Hesbollah now. The political end game will be a theocratic state since Hezbollah has launched the was against israel to solidify their hold on lebanese politics and make it a de facto mini-Iran, a theocratic state run by mullahs. Once this is a fait accomplis, the war will be waged again against Israel however this time Israel will have no choice but to destroy the "new Islamic state of Lebanon"
In the end, Israel will have the legitimacy to destroy once and for all thisexistential threat.
If Charlie Manson started a Educational Outreach fundraiser for the poor children of Los Angeles, he would still be a cold blodded murderer. Is anybody else sick of the MSM always mentioning that Hezbolla operates schools and hospitals? Please! A murderer is a murderer is a murderer. If it walks like a terrorist, and target kills women and children like a terrorist, its a terrorist.
Yep. There are no innocents in Lebanon.
The name being changed?... Hezbodemonah? Hezboimpah? Hezbosatanah? Wouldn't make any diff to sick liberal minds who refuse to see the demonic power behind Headzforallah and Hammasacre.
[UN] Expert on Trafficking in Persons Ends Visit to Lebanon September 15, 2005
In the course of my mission, I have found that a significant number of human beings, women in the majority, are trafficked into and within Lebanon. [snip]
Many of my interlocutors, including senior government officials, also acknowledged that widely held attitudes of discrimination on the basis of race, colour, ethnicity, and gender contribute to the prevalence of human trafficking.
Those converted military targets planted among civilians are legitimate targets and should be blown to bits.
Then and maybe only then will civilians either refuse to live like that or to accept terrorist among their neighbors.
The Nazis also used this stategy. As a matter of fact, the political machines of the Arab world learned this crap from the Nazis. The Nazis were arguably better at this than the communists--at least in Germany.
Because anyone agreeing with Hezzy wouldn't point "the Building" out and anyone disagreeing/Pointing it out would have his and his whole families life in danger/Over.

Not if they want to live.
A Lebanese can explain why Hezbollah uses civilians as human sheilds. Who can explain why the West doesn't condemn them for doing so? The answer to THAT question is why Hezbollah hides behind women and children with complete satisfaction of being left blameless for the loss of innocent lives while Israel -- and indeed world Jewry -- is held responsible instead.
I therefore hold the advocates of moral equivalency to be more to blame than the actual participants.

How about "Today is Saturday, tomorrow Sunday".
When they ask you what it means, tell them this is what Islamists sing. Meaning Saturday they kill the Jews, Sunday the Christians.
I wonder if Bill O'Reilly was his history teacher?
Indeed the unspeakable monsters play with the corpses of children for hours [shudder] for the benefit of the cameras:
Read my tagline!
The priest used this quote in his sermon at my church Sunday. Really sums it up.
Only partly true. Leftists do not want the islamists to surrender so meekly. The media adores the Osama's of the world, and just like the communists of old, the leftists today are encouraging the islamo-scum at every turn.

You know, I've never understand why the Left hates what America stands for so much. Don't they realize in doing so and encouraging the enemies of freedom that they endanger their own liberty? Maybe, like Michael Savage says, Liberalism IS a mental disorder.
