tempers are flaring. tempers are really flaring. dozens of children died. dozens. :'(
photo taken at 11 AM on Sunday the 30th of July 2006, the day of the Qana Massacre by Israeli Precision Bombs, in which over 50 people died, of which more than half were children.
Nous sommes loin de notre pays d'origine mais nous l'aimons, nous souffrons avec vous et nous devions y passer nos vacances.
Puisse la paix, la joie, l'unité revenir dans ce beau pays et que les libanais retrouvent le calme et la sérénité, loin des atrocités et des haines qui l'assaillent.
Isreal have now sunk so low that they now consider disabled children as legitimate targets. for their spokeman to appear on screen to justify the murders of 57 more civilians dispicable.
SHAME ON THE USA FOR STANDING BACK AND SUPPORTING SUCH ACTIONS.

Thanks Leslie, I think we should call our media and demand they quit sensoring pics. We should see what the world sees, only then Americans will begin to FEEL again. I agree the solution is for all Refugees to RISE and walk peacefully back to the South. I am from the south in America, this is what changed the oppresion of the south. They rose and walked peacefully. someone get the message out, the world would step in if Isreal dare fire against a peaceful rally back home.
Omg this is crazy! im soo sad and scared :( this is only gonna get worse. People are so angry...hate is only increasing...peace seems so far away... :(
SHAME ON THE USA AND EVERY ONE THAT SUPPORTS THESE ACTS OF TERROR. :(
Please send emails to CNN and ask them to stop their Pro-Israel coverage. They keep justifying these acts of terror and I am sick of it.
Israel is loosing the war and they are frustrated. The US and Israel were betting on a civil war in Lebanon but the Lebanese people are smarter and stronger than this...
I am Christian and I fully support the Lebanese resistance movement. I am against the Israeli criminal aggression and will always be...
I am for Lebanon and all the Lebanese people. Neither Israel nor the US can stop us from living. We will survive and we will rebuild. We are ALL for Lebanon. It is very important for all of us, Lebanese, to stick together at this time. This is the only way we can save our country and our people.
Je suis incroyablement choqué comme chaque jour quand je découvre ces atrocités que l état terroriste d israel ne cesse d accomplir!! mais aujourd hui je n en puis plus j ai le sentimemnt que mon coeur va explosé! j essaye malgré moi de me retenir à travers ces quelques lignes de ne pas degager toute la haine que j ai envers tout ceux qui participent soutiennent ou laissent faire ces massacres.
Si ces meurtres d enfants montrent quelque chose c est l impuissance d israel à faire plier les libanais! et leurs refus de reconnaitre leur defaite.
LOUBNANE TIENS BON!! SAMIDOUNE SAMIDOUNE ET UNIS NOUS VAINQUERONS!
I am sick, I started crying when I heard Peres say he wouldn't be surprised if Hizballah was holding those people at gunpoint (even though there had just been a reporter on that said a survivor told them they were too poor to leave the area and there was nowhere to go). He also said they probably planned this to happen to coincide with the UN vote on sanctions for Iran.
So Israel takes orders from Hizballah now? What?
Siniora appealed to "American mothers to think about their children" and write and call their legislators to stop this madness (not his words)
EVERYONE CALL, WRITE, PROTEST, DO ANYTHING POSSIBLE TO STOP THIS.
The Lebanese could take their fate into their own hands, and not wait for the US to tell Israel to stop (actually, we know the US has rushed and is rushing more bombs to the Israelis for the continuation of the "war", which is clearly no more than the coldblood onslaugh by the Israelis of Lebanese civilians using US precision laser-guided bombs)
Don't WAIT for a cease-fire!
My solution to immediately end this continuing massacre is this:
All the refugees who had fled must now rise from their shelters and, with their children, march back south, unarmed, and drive the Israelis army out of South Lebanon.
If you agree with me, then please suggest this solution by posting on all forum boards which you know.
I totaly agree with you, it is time for the people to take action and not wait upon gvts to discussit between them.
Lebanese population, refugees along with non refugees, as well as all peace lovers rally in Lebanon and march south and retake their land peacefully. And if Israel wants human shields, they will have millions to xhoose from for the target practice.
Also, Coutries that are opposing the USA implicite support as well as Israel actions, should immediatly recall their respective ambassadors from Jerusalem and maybe from Washigton as well.
As for the UN, I believe it is time to remove the Veto rights from the permanant members. AS long as one power has a right to veto any decision, the UN will never be able to function normally.
In the end, remember all what democracy stands for:
from Greek demos (‘people’) and kratia (‘authority’), hence ‘rule by the people’.
I agree, the veto power is the proble, It should be by majority rules, and the rotating members should vote in tie breakers, or better yet, get a full vote.
The US stopped the security council from demanding an immediate cessation of hostilities.
In Italy for 30 years the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed. They produced Michelangelo, Leonardo Da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, five hundred years of democracy and peace. And what did that produce. The cuckoo clock.
--Graham Greene, novelist
Day after day
Love turns gray
Like the skin on the dying man
And night after night
We pretend it's all right
But I have grown older
And you have grown colder
And nothing is very much fun, anymore
And I can feel
One of all my turns coming on
I feel
Cold as a razor blade
Tight as a tourniquet
Dry as a funeral drum ... Pink Floyd
As a Lebanese i would like to tell you what i personally learned during these 2 weeks:
-I cannot make a difference between Zionism & Nazis.
-I learned to hate Israel it's people it's government and it's history.
-I learned to hate the word democracy that GWB refers to in Israel.
-I learned to hate 50% of the US people that voted for GWB, showing no humanitarian feelings during this war.
-I learned to stand next to my fellow Lebanese Christians, sunnites , shiites and druze.
-I learned to be proud of my country Lebanon who stood united againsts Israel terrors.
I also learned to love my country even more.
What i earned is nothing but hatred and now i should learn to erase this anger from my heart.
Je ne suis pas prophète et n'ai aucune prétention d'une relation particulière avec Dieu.Jje ne suis pas non plus mystique ou fanatique mais simplement chrétien.Je devrais peut-être dire croyant car chrétien dénote déjà d'une appartenance à une religion...alors disons simplement croyant.Je suis particulièrment choqué par les massacres au Liban et chaque jour dans mes prières je porte le peuple libanais...mais j'ai aussi les pieds sur terre et me rends compte qu'une prière n'a pas les effets d'une bombe.Pourtant je n'ai que ça pour aider, je ne suis ni politique ,ni influent et mon avis ne se répercutera jamais jusqu'aux plus hautes instances décisionnelles...et pourtant c'est bien d'une prière qui m'est inspirée depuis plusieurs soir dont je vais vous faire part.Qui me l'inspire?Vous jugerez vous même mais je ne peux la garder pour moi seul...alors vous en ferai ce que votre coeur et votre concience vous dictera.
Israël que fais-tu?Tu es le peuple que j'ai choisi pour mon alliance...je te parle depuis des siècles et t'accorde à chaque fois mon pardon et tout mon amour.
Je te parle et tu ne m'écoutes pas!
J'ai parlé à tes pères par de nombreux prophètes et je t'ai choisi non pour régner en maître sur les peuples mais pour être le peuple de la paix,celui qui doit montrer l'exemple et mener les hommes vers la paix et vers moi.
Que fais-tu Israël?
Tous les hommes sont mes brebis et mes bien aimés où qu'ils soient et de quelque confession qu'ils soient.
J'ai envoyé mes prophètes et mon fils pour annoncer la paix et te conduire vers la paix et vers la terre promise.La terre promise est la récompense d'un peuple élu qui respecte son alliance mais toi tu ne respectes pas notre alliance et fais tienne cette terre.Aujourd'hui tu défends cette terre et la gardes par dessus tout dans un bain de sang.Le sang c'est celui de mes enfants qu'ils soient juifs,chrétiens ou musulmans.Regardes les efforts de tes frères de toutes confession pour maintenir mes préceptes ,mon amour,ma paix et ma rédemption!Et toi que fais-tu pour mener à la paix et attirer encore une fois ma rédemption.Te comportes-tu en peuple élu et exemplaire ou en conquérant divin au dessus de toutes lois et au dessus de ma loi et de moi. Je t'exorte Israël de choisir le chemin de la paix et d'arrêter le massacre de tes frères et de mes enfants.Prends le chemin de la rédemption et de la paix et non celui des bombes et de la guerre et mon pardon te sera accordé .Oui Israël mon coeur saigne pour tous mes enfants, mon coeur saigne.
Prions tous pour la paix et que la voie de Dieu et de sa raison raisonne dans le coeur de tous ceux qui peuvent changer quelque chose à cette guerre.
Why hasnt Lebanon decleared war on Israel at this stage? Israle's actions have gone WAY beyond Hizbullah at this stage... its citizens are being slaughetered and infrastructure being destoryed by Israel. I know its symbolic but hey! At this stage, might as well bring the whole area into it .. lebanon, syria, iran, and the rest of the chicken-shit "U.S. allies" Jordan and Egypt should declare WAR on this radib DOG - ISRAEL. Enough is enough! The world has had it with this PIECE OF SHIT country that has Modern ROME by the balls... the U.S. cant lick its assssssss enough ..... man! God damn!
O.K Let me know where you live. I am going to kick you and your family out of your home. Declare it mine and if you protest I am going to call you a terrorist and bomb the shit out of you. Hey all i want you to do is bend over and accept the status quo.
First of all, I highly doubt your name is Ali and obviously you stated so to claim you are Muslim She'it. So, nice try.
Now, as for your idiotic comments, you are either in deniel or an absolute idoit. Why? For you to actually beleive that the barbaric aggression Israel is carrying out is due to the Hozbollah attack and taken two soliders 19 days ago is idoitic at best.
Okay, now crawl from under the rock and here is some news for you... IT WAS WELL PLANNED... A huge attack like this doesn't happen over night and based on impulse. This is a part of a big plan by Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld. They are setting the ground for an attack on Syria and Iran to bring "democracy" to the region.
On behalf of the 37 children that were killed in Kanna last night, I would like to thank Mr. Bush and Mr. Olmart for brining democracy to them and their families. What a shame.
It is very sad that idoits like you get to live and innocent children die in Lebanon.
Hezbollah was wrong but nothing justifies this. If it hadn't been Lebanon (or any other Muslim or Arab country) Israel would have figured out how to negotiate with the Hezbollah with the Lebanese government's assistance to bring the soldiers out and let the government of Lebanon bring the perpatrators to justice.This bollocks about not negotiating with terrorists is just bollocks Western countries use proxies or negotiate with terrorists all the time--see Iraq. It's pretty obvious they couldn't care less about the soldiers nor about the people of Lebanon. The ones who will get bitten in the end are the Israelis, Americans and Brits who will pay for this horror with more terrorism committed against them. Violence only begets violence.
I'm an expat now but the only reason I keep voting is to hope that my little vote will make a difference here in the US. I went to my congressional reps--Senate and House--and demanded an immediate ceasefire then work to create a sustainable peace (I'm from NY so you have a very hardline Israel lobby here). How the Bush and Blair want to think that letting Israel have there way with Lebanon--too bad they aren't doing as well as they hoped Hezbollah still stands and the Israelis had to pull out of Bint Jbeil because Hez beat them--is beyond me. Watching Blair try and sell this is getting downright embarrassing.
If you are a US citizen or a British citizen then start protesting. 60% of people in Britain want a ceasefire according to the ICM poll. And minority as we are in the US we have to say enough is enough. It is only the US and UK who are holding back a ceasefire so speak up now.I hope somebody is putting together a day of global protest where everyone can stand up against this at once and be counted and make a global boycott at least one day where everything just stops and people really think about this. This situation is crazy.
Even after this massacre CNN continue to host people who are justifying this crime by the Israel. That should show you how this jewish owned Station is fair and balanced in it's reporting.
Let me tell you something and I hope that all the Lebanese and the muslims hear this. Stop listening to these people in power. Join the resistanse, doctors, engineers, evryone let's do it together stop depending on America and the Arab world. These scum bags are worried about their cars homes and how much money in the bank they have on a daily basis. They could care less about your sufferings. Let's join our hands together Sunnis, Shiits Christians and Druz and let's drive this evil empire Israel out of our land.
Well said. As a Christian Lebanese, I support my fellow Muslim friends and brothers in the war against our common enemy, against an evil and a state of terrorism. All we have is each other. We MUST stick together... We MUST help each other and protect each other backs. The whole world is against us, starting with the King of Saudi Arabia to Bush.
.......... I am A Christian Lebanese also. I don't think Hizballah cares about the
..........Christian Lebanese. They jeopordized the fate of the entire nation for their
..........goals. Their ultimate goal, as they orginally stated is to create an Islamic
..........state. I am AGAINST israel and its crimes and I support all Lebanese, but not
.........organizations like HB
Hozbollah never claimed or attempted to create an Islamic. This is propaganda by the western media. Don't get me wrong, I am not defending Hozbollah or anything, I just know this is not what they have tried to do. Otherwise, General Owen would never be along their side.
To be honest, most people in the US don't care about what is going on in Lebanon, unless it makes the price of gasoline higher. We have no desire to send our troops there. Let the muslim countries police one of their own for once. All the countries that want peacemakers in Lebanon want someone else's to go, not their own.
Nobody cares much what is going on in the US, why should we care what is going on halfway around the world when we have no dog in the fight.
I prefer my Senators and Representatives work on our economy, and our problems. Let the muslims figure out their own for once.
"I prefer my Senators and Representatives work on our economy"
This is exactly what they're doing. Maintaining wars in the world to sell more weapons, and fighting a 'global war on terror' (whatever that means) to spend more than 400 billion dollars a year on the military.
je suis déprimée , horrifiée , désabusée devant tant d'horreur , de souffrance , de vies gâchées . Libanais ,vous n'êtes pas seuls . Le monde entier vous regarde et souffre avec vous . Votre désespoir nous atteint . Nous sommes loin mais nous sommes proches et nous espérons .
It is due time for peacekeeping. I call upon the United States to send their military over at once to make the peace. It is there duty. We must all contact closest American embassie and demand they send troops. If there is sufficient will, it will be done.
Peace will come when those devil occupiers leave our country.
Our country do you really understand that. It's our land it's our home.
Why the fuck no one can uderstand that????
Funny how the west take pride of their heroes when they went into wars and got rid of Hitler for occupying Europe but not the Arabs, we are terrorists for trying to get our land back.
Then why are you here Mortimer? Just to taunt? It's your tax money that is paying for those bombs. Israel is the number 1 country that the US gives aid to. If you think you can live in a bubble then go and stay there and stop making the rest of us miserable.
1) throw some leaflates to warn israeli "civilians" to get the FUCK out of israel.
2) Blow them up then say "we are so sorry at the loss of civilian life". apologize baba apologize - ITS FREE!
3) Blwo them up then say "we have launched an investigation" and then let it go...
THere is a learning curve. When Hez learns to target their missiles better, and gets more powerful ones, they will be able to inflict the same degree of deaths on the Israelis. That will make it an even playing field. I think, that to hasten the end of this war, the Arab countries should provide them with the better missiles. If they cannot, they can be purchased from the Soviets. But there will have to be many, many more deaths on both sides for this to end. It is better that this occur quickly, n'est pas?
Believe me, the last thing you want are more Americans in the Middle East. We're run by a warmongering administration at the moment, and the only peacekeeping you'd find by their direction would be blood mixed with spent assault rifle casings. If we had different leaders, then sure, I'd be all about sending in one of the most advanced defense forces available today.
If there's going to be a true peacekeeping operation in the middle east by a multi-national force, I'd vote for France, Germany, Canada and really any other country besides Russia, China, Britain or the U.S. In other words, countries that are more interested in truly stopping bloodshed than looking for something to gain the region.
You think these barbarians, evil European Zionists
are peacefull people??? where do you live on Mars??
They will kill you and make you the killer. A killer machine with a
propoganda powerfull media. they will take your land and
they will call it disputed. I have never seen Evil like that ever in
my life tim,e or heard of anything like that before.

I am not a racist sir but, I am sick and tired of watching my country
blown up to peices by zionists. I mean common they are murdering us and tell
us that we are the killers???
I can hear there propaganda through the media, CNN, Fox etc...
They take our land and they call it disputed???
No sir I am not a racist but let me tell you something
this is Evil at it's best. I understand that what hitler did was totally wrong
but these zionists are using the same techniques that Hitler used on them.
Does this make any sense???
expliquez moi,
comment est-ce possible que le concept de "communauté internationale" s'accorde en quelques minutes pour écrire une résolution d'ultimatum sur l'Iran et tergiverse depuis 20 jours les plus longs, cruels et les plus honteux, à dire : "nous condamnons tous, à l'exception des dirigeants US et UK qui trouvent ça formidablement nécessaire, l'offensive barbare d'israel contre le liban et la palestine et nous demandons un cessez le feu immédiat"
le silence complice
je propose une adhésion massive au hezbollah, dans chacun des pays où nous nous trouvons, pour bien montrer aux israéliens, qu'à présent, ils ont répandu la résistance, et qu'ils ne parviendront jamais à abattre tous les peuples ahuris et révoltés de leurs crimes
