Embargo?

Remarks to the United Nations Security Council

To further strengthen Lebanon’s democracy, the international community will also impose a binding embargo on all weapons heading into this country -- into that country without the government’s consent. And today, we call upon every state, especially Iran and Syria, to respect the sovereignty of the Lebanese government and the will of international community.

I wonder how the embargo affects the massive amount of weapons "heading into" Lenanon from Israel.

Propaganda Myths!

There are two articles on Hezbollah one in Time magazine that depicts the Hezbollah fighters as:



Looking pretty well armed, bearded and ferocious! With interesting contrast to the Add on top... "What would happen to your family if you died"!!!

Same day BBC has another article. The Israeli are saying that they have capture the guerrillas that were responsible for the Israeli soldier captures. They say the person that was captured was a well trained, doctor-nated with training in Iran which of course he went through Syria (he might have seen some North Koreans too :) ). Here is where it gets excising, they say this brave, ideologically trained fighter confessed in less than 24 hours after their capture. They have already been paraded on TV! The nonsense doesn't end there. Look at the image of the fighters in Israeli capture video:





Do these fighters look anything like the Time magazine depiction of them?


On information coming out of Israel you can always be sure of one thing, it never adds up!

May be if they get the right treatment we all can live in peace.

third of Lebanese casualties are children under 12

Lebanese Prime Minister Fouad Siniora said the war had killed 900 people in Lebanon and wounded 3,000, with a third of the casualties children under 12. He said a million Lebanese, a quarter of the population, had been displaced and infrastructure devastated. The Reuters tally of Lebanon deaths is at least 686.

"The obscene score-card"

The obscene score-card for death in this latest war now stands as follows: 508 Lebanese civilians, 46 Hizbollah guerrillas, 26 Lebanese soldiers, 36 Israeli soldiers and 19 Israeli civilians.

In other words, Hizbollah is killing more Israeli soldiers than civilians and the Israelis are killing far more Lebanese civilians than they are guerrillas. The Lebanese Red Cross has found 40 more civilian dead in the south of the country in the past two days, many of them with wounds suggesting they might have survived had medical help been available.

Joke of the day!

This CNN article has video of an empty hospital building that Israel claims to be "Hezbollah headquarters".

The IDF and the air force demonstrated their long arm, their ability to reach everywhere that Hezbollah sees fit to situate itself, even if it chooses a hospital as its headquarters," said Israeli Brig. Gen. Yohanan Loker.

To me the video demonstrates the "IDF and the air force" and the "Gen. Yohanan Loker" are dellusional. What kind of a fool would show a video of an empty building as Headquarter of its opponent?

It gets funnier, check out the expert analysis of the video in this CBS video:

No End in Israeli Attrocities

Facts and Myths

The Israel military and pundit keep saying that that Hezbollah is targeting civilians. The data seems to refutate both assertions:

July 22: he Israel Defense Forces said 15 civilians and 19 soldiers in Israel have been killed, and more than 300 people have been wounded.
http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/meast/07/22/mideast/index.html

Aug 2nd: Israel's military Wednesday reported 55 deaths -- including 19 civilians -- and 580 injuries during the conflict.
http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/meast/08/02/mideast.main/index.html

Majority of the casualties on Israeli side has been soldiers. Can Israel say the same about Lebannonies casualties?

Dark Vision!

Yesha Rabbinical Council: During time of war, enemy has no innocents




The Yesha Rabbinical Council announced in response to an IDF attack in Kfar Qanna that "according to Jewish law, during a time of battle and war, there is no such term as 'innocents' of the enemy."


All of the discussions on Christian morality are weakening the spirit of the army and the nation and are costing us in the blood of our soldiers and civilians," the statement said. (Efrat Weiss)
