WASHINGTON — A leading Arab-American advocacy group has sued the U.S. government, claiming that it failed to protect American citizens from the fighting in Lebanon. The lawsuit, filed Monday on behalf of about 30 American citizens by the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee, alleges that Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld did not take all possible steps to secure the safety and well being of U.S. citizens when fighting erupted between Israel and Hezbollah guerillas. The committee is asking the U.S. District Court in Detroit to order the U.S. government to request a cease fire and to...

25 Years (1982-2007) to BBC (war) Crimes on Israel (Images war)'Victimhood' as a cult, as a pretext to mass murder & Jihadi-fascistic promotion We are all so used to the usual song by Arabists & Islamists propagandists, that it´s their ''victimhood'' that ''makes'' them terrorists. There is only the fundamental problem, their fundamentalism that is, their Jihadi-fascistic ideology on the 'infidels' has nothing to do with what the west does or does not do, though images, especially their tactics to bring about collateral damage & ultimately to those desired (by them) graphic photos of injured Arab kids so that they...

U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice on Friday dismissed growing pressure for an immediate cease-fire between Israel and Hezbollah guerillas in Lebanon, calling it a "false promise" if the root causes of the conflict are not addressed. "An immediate cease-fire without political conditions does not make sense," she told reporters at the State Department. Rice will arrive for a brief visit to Israel on Monday, during which she is expected to receive an updated synopsis of the Israel Defense Forces' offensive in Lebanon. "Syria knows what it needs to do and Hezbollah is the source of the problem," Rice said...

Islamists terrorists' strength - their civilian-shieldsEven if you happen to be an Arab Muslim, one thing that we can all agree upon is, that Israel has a brave army, a strong one and full of resolve, one that no Arab army -- even combined -- could ever defeat. In fact enem,ies of Israel like to point it out so that the defender - Israel appears as the 'Golitah', though in fact Iranian nukes or Arab oil in the UN or combined Arab Muslim enemies are (the) massive, though coward, Goliath.. You might wonder, what's Hezbollah's secret weapon? Is it Iranian...

Does Israel have any children?Having watched TV lately, flooded with images of Arab civilians that their brothers - the Hezbollah love to use as shields to fire among/behind them. Being witness to the racist remark of the "moderate" Arab Muslim leader of Lebanon as a reaction to Israeli police hitting the criminal Jihadi murderers: 'Israel is a war machine'. Question: Is there such a thing as an Israeli child, an Israel woman, let alone an Israeli child injured from deliberate Arab Muslim "holy wars"? PS 100 Israeli civilians have beenb injured last week from Hezbollah shelling. Yes, accurate numbers, unlike...

Lebanon's defense minister has said the Lebanese army will join the battle to defend Lebanon if Israel launches a ground invasion. (AP)

All of the region's concerned parties want to keep Damascus out of efforts to put pressure on Israel and Hezbullah. For a number of different reasons, the governments involved don't want the open battlefield to extend beyond the Lebanese border. Even when President Bush said a few days ago that Syria must pay a price, he never said the price would be a military one. In Jordan, Egypt and the Gulf, in spite of differences with the Syrian government and in spite of suspicions that the Syrians had a role in pushing Hezbollah to get involved with Israel, these governments...

You can't call this the Arab-Israeli war of '06 because some of the usual belligerents have declined to participate. You could call it World War III, as Newt Gingrich has suggested, but that annoys everyone who wanted the Cold War to be WWIII, never mind that we got it out of the way without a nuclear swap meet. You could call it the Israel-Hezbollah War, but that lets Syria and Iran off the hook. So let's just call it Bush's Fault. At least that's what Howard Dean proposes. The energetic head of the Democratic National Committee had this to say:...

CAIR's Ibrahim Cooper, hung up on Mike Gallagher http://mikeonline.com on his show today when Mike asked him: Do (mainstream?) Muslims like you believe that Israel (even) has a right to exist? This was after this CAIR guy bashed Israel and calling it a "terrorist" for going after "civilian" infrastructure in Lebanon. [BTW, Would Israel copy the Muslims & (start to) go after civilian population intentionallly, just How many Arabs would then survive?] Mike: Do you agree that Hezbullah is a terror organization? Ibrahim: Yes, but... Mike: Did Hezbullah intiated the fight? Ibrahim: Yes, but... it was a "response" to "Palestinian"...

Presidential press secretary Tony Snow today said the Bush administration's policy of urging "restraint" by Israel means not creating "undue carnage with civilians." WND asked Snow about the policy, saying, "How does the president believe that it is possible for Israel to be 'restrained' in fighting a two-front war against terrorists?" Responded Snow: "In a situation like this, you do not want to create undue carnage with civilians. It has been part and parcel of U.S. doctrine in Iraq where you use highly targeted munitions and you try to be as precise as possible. And it is one of the...

U.S. Marine barracks hit by suicide truck bomber in 1983, killing 241 Americans The ground combat element for the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit (Special Operations Capable) headed to Beirut to assist in the evacuation of Americans is BLT 1/8 – the same battalion massacred Oct. 23, 1983, by a Hezbollah suicide bomber, killing 241. "This is truly surreal," said Bob Newman, retired Marine gunnery sergeant. "I was the Marine Corps' liaison to the FBI forensics team sent to the V Corps morgue in Frankfurt in October 1983 to ID all the Marines and sailors killed in the bombing. We had...

Islamo Arab thirst for (it's) "dead babies"The familiar pictures, Islamic terrorists are murdering innocent civilians they hide, or shoot from a civilian house/are, the west response to defend it's people, some non combatants dies along the anti-terror operation, Al Jazeera is happy-running with the photos, the Arab leaders play drama on TV... blah-blah. The same ol', same ol' whining - after their constant sick anticipation of juicy graphic photos - as part of their propaganda against the west. You have to understand the "victimhood" that is well embedded into their cult(ure), especially as part of "justifying Islamists horrific acts all...

Hizbullah has fired 1,500 missiles and rockets into Israel from southern Lebanon since the beginning last week of its military conflict with Israel, Israeli Deputy Prime Minister Shimon Peres said on British television Tuesday. "We should stop the shooting of missiles over our heads, over our villages and towns. They fired until now fifteen hundred missiles and rockets," Peres told Sky News. "We are trying to control the roads (...) of Lebanon because all the 12,000 missiles and rockets that they have collected came from Iran and Syria," Peres said. The veteran politician also said that Israel did not intend...

When Israel pulled out of its security zone in southern Lebanon three years ago, it was widely predicted that the radical Shiite group Hizballah, whose forces had relentlessly attacked the occupying Israeli troops, would close up military operations and henceforth focus solely on Lebanese domestic affairs. In the event, the exact opposite occurred: promptly declaring that its next objective was the liberation of the entire land of Palestine and the destruction of the "Zionist entity," Hizballah seized control of the 350-square-mile area that had been occupied by Israel, turning it into a de-facto state within a state. In Hizballahland, as...

Iranian People Tell Pollsters Israel Should Not Exist By Jim Kouri, CPP, 7/15/2006 11:25:59 AM United States intelligence officials believe that the current crisis in the Middle East, that began with incursions into Israel and abductions of soldiers followed by terrorist attacks against the Israeli people, is being fomented by Iran. The hatred of the Jewish State is no where more evident than in Iran with rhetoric reminiscent of the dark days of Hitler's rise to power. Meanwhile there are a number of so-called experts, such as former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, who continue to tell the American people...
