    No amount of spin can completely erase or explain images. Hence when the media actually reported with photos and video the devastation in New Orleans, Bush had to fire FEMA guy. Bush had to go back again and again after his famous fly over at 10,000 feet. The Israeli talking heads of the day look silly and callous as they get on with whatever the daily spin is.

    We are seeing actual photos of the tremendous damage due to Israeli boming in Lebanon. They actually interview English speaking Lebanese civilians who have come crawling out of their tumbled down houses. What is going on. Despite "shock and awe" we Americans hardly ever were allowed to see such damage due to American bombing in Iraq. How have Israel and their knee jerk supporters in this country lost control of the images?

    What is going on?

    Hezbollah is hiding their missles in residential areas and firing them from there.
    Israel then hits the residential areas the missles were fired from.

    Perhaps if Hezbollah wouldn't hide behind civilians, there wouldn't be as many civilian casualties as there have been.

    Hezbollah only has itself to blame for the deaths of Lebanese civilians.

    Good question. I think part of the answer to that is the power of Clutch Fans dot net.

    The obvious answer is that both "sides" are the same:

    violent, hateful, self-righteous assholes.

    And you know everything right?

    Or you believe everything you hear? "Hezbollah is hiding their missles in residential areas and firing them from there"

    Now that's a funny post. If a bank robber is taking hostages in a bank...and the identity is unknown of the bank robber…do you shoot everyone? My guess is you would say yes! Cause you don’t value the lives of the innocent parties…**** the a-rabs! :rolleyes:

    I guess you can't see difference between an individual whose intention is to rob a bank, and a terrorist organization whose intention is to destroy a nation, can you?

    Hmmmm....maybe the Lebanese army should do a little better job of keeping Hezbollah militants out of the southern part of the country...

    It doesn't matter what Hezbollah is doing if the Israeli strategy is killing far more civilians than militants they need to halt that strategy and try a new one.

    It's time for this strategy...what will it take for all sides to come to the realization that this is the only answer?
