A BLOODY GAME OF POKER
The latest events in Kfar Qana prove once again that the Hizbollah knows how to play its cards well. If we go back to the kidnapping of the Israeli soldiers almost three weeks ago, we see that the main goal of this move was to drag the Israeli army back into Lebanon, in order to portray Israel as an eager warmonger seeking to invade Lebanon for a second time.
When Israel retaliated with limited air strikes and not by sending in ground forces, the Hizbollah played their second card, by sending rockets into Israel’s northern cities and towns. The Hizbollah anticipated the Israeli reaction to these rocket attacks. It knew full well that its action endangered the lives of Lebanese civilians, but coldly calculated that one building destroyed by an air strike, accompanied by pictures of dead children being pulled out of the rubble, makes better headlines and photos than a katyusha rocket hitting a car in the main street of Nahariya.
For the past six years, since Israel pulled out of Lebanon, Hizbollah has been putting its flags in the UNIFIL outposts, alongside the UN flags, so that it was quite difficult to determine who was controlling what. Hizbollah terrorists were observed coming and going from these UN posts, with the obviously clear intention of misleading Israeli Intelligence. When Israel hit by mistake a post that was considered to be a Hizbollah post, and killed four UNIFIL soldiers, the Hizbollah played its winning card. World opinion began to turn against Israel.
<snip>
So now it is time for Hizbollah to play its next card. Being fully aware of the Israeli trauma regarding about the tragedy in Kfar Qana ten years ago, the Hizbollah deliberately fires missiles from within the village of Kfar Qana - and then retreats into a civilian building. Since it is well aware that the IDF is monitoring their rocket launchers, it is quite obvious to the Hizbollah that the IDF will have to react against this village. What the IDF does not know, however, is that the Hizbollah is holding women and children inside the building, in the clear knowledge that it will be targeted by the IDF.

The story from the Israel apologists constantly changes, doesn't it? First the UN post was not hit by Israeli fire, then it was hit by Israeli fire, but it was an accident, now its that the IDF thought the CLEARLY MARKED UN post was actually a Hizbullah post?
BULLSHIT.
The IDF murdered those UN observers. They did it intentionally, and they knew who they were targetting. The constant LIES from the Israel apologists only make it clearer.
And this bullshit about Qana is just that. The "tragedy in Qana" 10 years ago was when the IDF INTENTIONALLY murdered over a hundred civilians IN A UN POST. Amazing how this fuckwit is trying to pretend that the IDF would never do such things, but then uses that case as part of his bullshit about why Hizbullah would do what he claims they did.
They did it then, and they are doing it now.

maybe to get the UN Observers out of the area?
Or to discourage any talk of a cease fire and a UN or multi-national peace keeping force in Southern Lebanon?
BTW, "mission accomplished".

5. Why would they intentionally bomb a US ship? |
|
Or carry out an artillery strike on a UN refugee camp killing over a hundred civilians?
The simple answer is because they believe the UN is standing in the way of their plans, and because they can.

6. I think that's a very paranoid view of what happened |
|
Hezbollah and other terrorist organziations are masters at manipulating the media.
I find it extremely difficult to believe that Israel would intentionally destroy a UN output as well as intentionally kill children at Qana unless they suspected it harbored Hezbollah infrastructure.
Hezbollah on the other hand would do this in an instant in order to sway world opinion towards them so they could "catapult their propaganda" some more.

"Hezbollah Israelis and other terrorist Jewish organziations are masters at manipulating the media."
I would be called anti-semitic, and rightfully so.
