Agreed!
"This is about a hatred of those who defend Western values against the barbarians. "
And the leftist scum that support the Islamists. The leftists would not last five minutes under Islamic rule since the Islamist despise them and all they stand for. Nevertheless in their nihilistic fervor the left hates the West more.
I suppose it's the same PR firm the Bosnian and Albania Muslims used.

No it is not. MOST people don't know what we know. MOST People are seeing and believing what they see on TV. Most Americans are not smart enough to know the truth.
Sad but true. Sure we know. Most do not.
That certainly seems to be the case. Hezbollah is operating so far outside "international law" that it would take pages to document it all. On the other hand, as far as I can tell (as a layman reading through the Geneva Conventions), Israel has scrupulously adhered to them. Israel appears (to me) to have "international law" completely on their side, but you'd never know that from the myopic coverage of Old Media.
Everywhere you look in the Geneva Conventions, Hezbollah is guilty of war crimes.
They are, in the strict sense of the word, outlaws.
We can end the war between Hizb'allah and the IDF by separating people from those two groups. We can encourage them to emigrate to other countries of the world.
I'm sure that the USA will gladly allow some members of the IDF to enter our country
Now.... Who will take some Hizb'allah immigrants? Would France or Spain like a few Hizb'allah immigrants? How about Qatar or Saudi Arabia? Any takers?
Yo!! World leaders! Are you interested in encouraging Hizb'allah to relocate to your country?
I think Isaiah 17 is around the corner.
Damascus is about to glow in the dark.
They are part and parcel of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards.
They are trained by the Iranian government.
They are supplied by the Iranian government.
They are paid by both the Syrian and Iranian governments.
There are really only two ways one could possibly regard Hizbolla under the GC. One is as an 'irregular militia'. That one is right out as the GC requires that an irregular militia be composed of indigenous forces answering to a clear chain of command.
The other is as soldiers out of uniform carrying out indiscriminate attacks against civilian targets. That makes them war criminals who can be subjected to summary execution after a speedy field Courts Martial.
I caught those programs on THC and I completely agree with you. Some have compared our leaders to Neville Chamberlain croaking about 'peace in our time' while clutching worthless bits of paper.
I disagree. We have the opposite problem. We are at war yet we refuse to prosecute it as vigorously and as violently as wars must be prosecuted in order to win swift, decisive, unquestionable victories.
After 9-11 President Bush said "If you harbor terrorists or aid terrorists we shall treat you like terrorists."
Well Mr. President we have two regimes in the Middle East who are not only doing that, they are openly crowing about it. Yet, you do nothing. No, strike that. You do worse than nothing.
You negotiate with them. You give them a legitimacy they have neither earned nor deserve. All they merit is a rapid and violent stamping out with whatever level of violence is required to bring a speedy end to the matter.
It's time we offer the Israelis whatever assets they require and offer to reduce the bulk of the Syrian and Iranian armies and their bases to pink mist and rubble.
It's also high time we stop treating these goons as legitimate national leaders and sparing them from personal consequences of their actions. This crap about Assad and Ahmenidjad being 'civilian leaders' is foolish.
They need to know that they are targets on a very personal level.
Once the homes and families of a few Iranian Mullahs vanish in a high order detonation the rest of them will calm down. They can't all be hiding in their bunkers 24 X 7.
Turn Assad and his 'cabinet' into quivering gobs of meat stuck to the walls and Hizzbolla will quickly lose its bluster. Let the UN be damned if they don't like it.
Sorry to pop in your general direction but watching the Israelis deal with the massacre of a bunch of civilians and this subhuman thug masqerading as a person crow about it have pushed me over the edge.
It's way past time for these monsters to die.

AMEN! Israel has the right to protect itself and to fight, fight, fight. I thank God for them.
satan HATES the Jews because Jesus came from among them. he will do everything in his (limited) power to destroy them but he will fail. Right now spiritual warfare is hot and heavy, as is deception and the UN and the media feed right into it. They're satan's allies in this war.
The Elijah List (www.elijhalist.com) has some very interesting prophetic words about Lebanon and Syria. I read one today about Syria (it's probably a few days old). God is very much in this battle and Israel will not lose.
Terrorists are not signatories to the Geneva Convention..
