About 100 people in Lebanon have died so far, and all but about 3 were civilian. It doesn't matter what "side" you are on, killing innocents is wrong. <BR/><BR/>Bush isn't going to say anything b/c he sees it as a way to further his PNAC-type agenda without actually getting his hands dirty. I read a report last night that said a van carrying two Lebanese families was blown up as they were trying to escape. There were 15 children in that van. This is wrong. There has also been speculation that Israel has used some kind of chemical weapons in Gaza and Lebanon. There has been no confirmation, just speculation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12796551.post-1153093123675940732006-07-16T19:38:00.000-04:002006-07-16T19:38:00.000-04:00This situation seemed really simple to me when I f...This situation seemed really simple to me when I first started to think about it. But the more I think about it, the more questions I have, and the number of answers at my disposal are rapidly decreasing.<BR/>The Middle East has been unstable for some period of time, and it only ever needed one good nudge and off it went, exploding.<BR/>Maybe this is that nudge.<BR/><BR/>I agree with Fallenmonk is as much as that this problem was started off years ago when someones country was handed over to the Jews as some kind of compensation or reward. The powerful feelings have just been gathering since then - justifiably. Israel has done much to the Palestinian people and to the countries surrounding it.<BR/><BR/>I'm afraid that this "war", "battle", whatever you want to call it wont stop anytime soon - not till hundreds of thousands die or the issues are laid to rest or Israel once again conquers all with its much, much superior weaponry.

The U.S. has it's hands tied by our continued support of Israel and failure to support a legitimate government in Palestine or Lebanon. We are militarily unable to intervene and the U.N. is already stretched to the breaking point. We have no credibility in the Arab world so anything we say will be considered a lie.<BR/>Thousands are going to die and everyone is going to suffer crippling destruction of critical infrastructure.<BR/>The U.S. has a lot of responsibility for the current mess and Jeff is probably correct in saying that anything we do will just make it worse.<BR/>This is another phase of the tragedy created after WWII when we deigned it our duty to pay off the Jews with someone else's property and until that fundamental issue is resolved we will have some flavor of this conflict extant...or until one side or the other completely obliterates the last person on the other side.fallenmonkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17652766170343957948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12796551.post-1153071121301883962006-07-16T13:32:00.000-04:002006-07-16T13:32:00.000-04:00It won't work.It won't work.Jeff Huberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14146644937683409726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12796551.post-1153070445132137422006-07-16T13:20:00.000-04:002006-07-16T13:20:00.000-04:00Yeah, Lurch, that's precisely what I think.
