Hello. I'd like to say, that a lot of people in my country are against this war. Ours country have got similar history: Poland many times was brute attacted by proximate country, and finnaly we're always won. Lebanon we're believe in yours victory!
best wishes
Hey FinkPloyd: Can you add a translation of that audio file? My Arabic is very poor and I've just understood something like "Where's Nasrallah?"
Talking about Israeli psychologic warfare and its lies: I just stumbled over this when browsing IndyMedia: (click link) This might interest you. --can anyone translate this for funguerilla?--finkployd-
Ok, here is my attempt at a translation (not very easy given the strong israeli accent):
Litteral translation: To the Lebanese citizens: Hizbullah's terrorist acts targetted at israeli territories got you in this situation that you are currently in. Know that the state of israel will continue to act with strength and determination to stop the terrorist acts that originate from inside Lebanese territories. It is in the hand of israel to fatally strike the Lebanese terrorists, as it has proved during the previous days. Where is Hassan Nasrallah? He fled to his cave, just like the other terrorists who fled the battle as soon as they heard the first shot. The state of israel.
thanks phil.
decent translation, but there's one bit you got wrong: "It is in the hand of israel to fatally strike the Lebanese terrorists" the correct translation is: "It is in the hand of israel to fatally strike the Lebanese children" after all, if the number of Lebanese children murdered by Israel is 50% GREATER than the number of 'terrorists' killed, then Israel surely must be after the children - the terrorists are just collateral. right?
Calling civilians to leave danger area - you call it terrorism? Are you *nuts*?
This is clearly a strong proof that Israel wants not to hurt Lebanese civilians.
helge,
did you know that the 37 children who were massacred in qana had left their homes and taken refuge in the basement of a building that was 'clear' of israel's path of destruction. israel has a history of telling people to leave their homes, and then either destroying them, or claiming them as their own. did you know that palestine was a country? do you know how israel was founded? they got lots of weapons, and told the palestinians to leave their homes. would you leave your home if someone came to your front door with a gun and told you to leave? or would you fight for your home? remember, israel occupied more than 20% of lebanon for 22 years.
They tell them to leave, but they bombed their roads. They are bombing vehicles that are trying to leave. They are blowing up busses with civilians that are trying to escape. There are no roads. There are no bridges. There are no safe vehicles.
How are they supposed to leave? I hear a lot of people saying, "They shouldn't let these 'terrorists' use their neighborhoods as shields." Look in the states, though ... How many years have we attempted to get drugs and gangs out of our neighborhoods, only to be met with retaliation. So, please ... Do explain how these people are supposed to leave when they get this call to do so? And where are they supposed to go? Bombs are falling all over Lebanon. Despite what the media says, it isn't just in the South.
Just a few days ago I was watching a documentary about the Nazi propaganda and their psychological warfare techniques in WWII. They were transmitting radio signals as well- AND pamphlets. Ah the IRONY.
Everyone please visit www.counterpunch.org

A friend just sent me this, which has a video halfway down called: Some Context to Counter Israeli Pretext It reinforces some of the things you say about propaganda (esp in USA)
The problem Robert is your' opinions are based in Zionist propaganda and misinformation. You are merely robotically repeating and regurgitating the lies of the IDF and pro-Israeli groups. There is CLEARLY no critical analysis or research of the facts on your' part therefore, your' "opinion" on this blog would only serve to broadcast Israeli lies and propaganda. Israel has a long and ugly history of well documented attacks on Lebanese & Palestinian civilians; are their pamphlets warning people to flee are still fluttering from the sky, the bombs are raining down on women and children and innocents.
To know the facts not, simply to be brainwashed and repeat propaganda will make you biased. Israel does not have a moral, legal or humanitarian leg to stand on in the middle east. Robert, are you aware that the state of Israel was created because Jewish terrorists bombed, killed, attacked and murdered Palestinians and Europeans until in 1947 they got what they wanted? These Jewish terrorists, under the political movement of Zionism, ethnically cleansed the region of Palestinians, stole their homes and their land and their wealth and created the state of Israel on Palestinian graves and grief. Israel created Hezbollah when they invaded Lebanon in 1982, they are not terrorists they are a resistance group that has a real reason to exist again. I am not a fan or supporter of Hezbollah but, someone MUST stand up to the tyranny and killing machine that is Israel. Israel needs to be defeated, disarmed and their leaders and citizens brought to the international courts and tried for war crimes and enforce war reparations. This will happen in our life time. Wait and see. Robert, I encourage you and all Americans to read about Zionism, the FACTS that lead to the creation of the state of Israel, the devastation of the Palestinians and Lebanese people and nations. Israel is the enemy. Israel will sink the US to the bottom of the Ocean before it concedes one of its maniacal demands for land, resources,territorial expansion, wealth and regional control. This bog and the thousands like it are to serve the purpose of being a conduit of Truth not Zionist and Israeli lies.
you go my man. what a wonderful comment!!!!! right to the point. please keep educating us.
Bingo! Every word is true! Thanks for that text!
Big respect and peace!
Oh my goodness! This was so succinctly put, and so very true. Thank you very much for putting into words what many of think and know, but dont have the language to say it.
One more day of this...one more minute....and I fear for us all. What kind of a world do we live in, that this can happen and the modern world turns a blind eye. If someone had told me a year ago, that this could happen, I never would have believed it. My ignorance is showing, as is that of many others. Its time for many of us to brush up on history, and world events; time for us all to protest in any way we can...write letters...email...phone calls. This must stop...
Laurie - read Daniel and Ezekiel I believe these are also in the Koran, but I dno't understand the numbering system well enough to look it up and cite it. Also, 1 Thessolonians. Just one perspective on the current situation.
Here's a better way to show Robert the truth in the words of Israel Leaders
