Israel has now started up again. More civilians will be killed. More destruction of Lebanese infrastructure. More war crimes. Bombing from the air and blowing up everything moves, even those trying to escape. And the world just watches and the US encourages and enables Israel.

7. The MSM seems pretty free to show the horror of Lebanon, but...
shys away from the same exact crap that we are doing to the Iraqi people in Iraq. Funny how that works.

Condi, I have never ever had an original thought in my life ever, Rice is completely useless.

8. One reporter on BBC says
South Lebanon looks like Stalingrad after Hitler moved through. The right wing of this planet is ruthless and has no shame, no humanity and not one fugging shred of decency.

9. Watch Slaughterhouse- Five sometime
to see what the Allies did to Dresden - film uses archive footage. Dresden served no military significance - only thing ever made in Dresden was pottery and it had no defensive armaments at all.

See here for details : http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/2WWdresden.htm

10. I reckon she gets all news footage on the subject
almost as it occurs. I also believe that the only reason your MSM are now showing such stuff is because they are becoming increasingly aware that you can get the news on our UK TV Channels anyway.

12. Stopping bombing
For the person who said the US would not call for a cease fire. Disgusting, if true. (Not that I doubt it, I'd just like a link to corroboration of some sort.)
