Lebanon has been utterly devastated

by the actions of the Israeli war machine

Tens of thousands of men, women and children are homeless,

without adequate food and water

Rice proclaimed with evident pride

that a new Middle East was being born
At some point in the future, when the ill-fated American drive for hegemony in the first decade of the twenty-first century is subjected to critical study, historians will discover ugly parallels between the tenure of Condoleezza Rice as American secretary of state under President Bush and that of Joachim Ribbentrop as German foreign minister under Chancellor Hitler.
All the characteristics of the foreign policy of the Third Reich as it set the stage for World War—its depraved deceitfulness, cynicism, hypocrisy, recklessness, fascination with violence and utter contempt for human life—are to be observed 70 years later in the operations of the Bush administration, for whom Rice serves as chief foreign policy spokesman.

Each of these “qualities” was prominently on display during the last 48 hours, as Secretary of State Rice descended on war-torn Lebanon, before continuing on to Israel.

1. The new middle east being born is an example of BushCo's stem cell research

[oc2002]

2. ..and much of the west will be seen as apathetic to the violence.

Done in the name of spreading democracy or stopping terrorists, more destruction is being unleashed on more inocent civilians.

3. Lebanon has been bombed almost out of existence. How will they

find the courage and physical resources to rebuild their lives emotionally and physically? After all, whenever Israel decides it's time, they are free to come in and wipe out everything again.

4. They've been doing it for years.

This is mind blowing destruction. I will never forgive this act.

5. I know they have. But, time seems like the worse. The Lebanese

had done a wonderful job of recovering. Things were getting back to a level of good quality of life.

6. That and the ridiculous loss of life

plus horrible injuries really make this hard to stomach.

Man to man is so unjust.
