7. Except in this case he is right.
Edited on Mon Jul-17-06 07:15 PM by Archae
Hezbollah is a terrorist group, they will NOT give up their ultimate goal of destroying all of Israel, if they'd knock off this total bullshit they just *MIGHT* gain a little more credibility.

Osama and his goons have no credibility because they want to impose THEIR fundy Islamofascist "faith" on everyone, and anyone who says no gets killed.

Hezbollah has the same goals.

12. Maybe that's because it takes one to know one.
I believe our present administration are as much terrorists as any other out there.

18. One thing that would help
would be to find a way to stop the support Hezbullah enjoys amongst the populace. The war branch is only one part of the organization. They also provide social services to people that they can't get from their government, which, to my mind, is the main reason this group has support, and the main way they gain supporters.

23. But it is a DEMOCRACY that BUSH forced!
He was TOLD not to force elections yet, that the people weren't ready, and that Hezbullah would win if the elections were held. But George knows everything. At least, he knows way more than his foreign policy "excerpts" apparently. Because Hezbullah won, just like everyone said they would. They won a free and democratic election, and therefore ARE a voice of the populace. This is democracy in action. If you don't like, stop trying to cram it down everyone else's throats.

28. I was referring to Hezbulllah in Lebanon,
not in Palestine. I think that perhaps you are talking about the latter and not the former. Sorry for not making myself clear. Your points are right on the mark, btw.

21. And exactly what makes our shit smell so sweet?
Everyone else seems to want to "impose" their views on everyone else. Except the US. We're killing tens of thousands of women and children because we're "spreading democracy" and freeing them from a life of tyranny.

Bush is as wrong today as he's ever been, and anyone who thinks the key to ending this conflict lies in just "stopping the shit," is as simple-minded and ignorant as Bush.

8. BUT did you say this to another head of state
with your mouth full of food? Did you act like it was "junior better stop hitting sally or he's going to get a piece of my mind." rather than the calamitous event it really is?

if not, you're OK. :thumbsup:

13. Yes, some are.
But the full blame for this whole mess is squarely in Hamas' and Hezbollah's lap.

Those assholes won't give up their violent stupidity, so what is Israel supposed to do?
Bend over and say "Thank you sir, may I have another?"

26. Absolute Hogwash
But I am just stating that for the record. I'll not make any argument here, since it would be utterly wasted effort.

I will say this though. Anyone who puts all the blame here on either side exclusively is walking around with blinders on so restrictive it's a wonder they don't bump into buildings.

30. I agree with him on this issue, Hezbollah needs to knock it off
They are putting not only Israelis in danger, they are putting innocent lebanese in danger, too.

I agree with one statement he made regarding illegal immigration, that is, he recognized that they are human beings. I want border enforcement for humanitarian reasons-people are willing to risk their lives to come here, and many end up dead because of the greedy people who exploit them.
