I left a flyer in your door tonight warning you to leave before i set your
house on fire. Are you going to leave? Is it my fault if you don't leave..let's say because you are confined to your bed...if I burn you alive in your bed?

That is just how ridiculous the leaflet dropping by Israel is to me.

2. when you are dropping them on a mostly illiterate population
they might as well be in Sanskrit.

3. don't forget to board up the windows and doors
so escape is made a bit 'difficult'.

4.  I shall repost this observation I made earlier today..
I watched Wolf Blitzer today and he was asking many Israeli's if they were going to leave Northern Israel. Each and everyone of them responded that they wouldn't. Why? Because where would they go, they each responded.

How easy it is to understand that when it's Israeli's, but not very understandable when it's arabs/lebanese.

5. No transportation. No money even if moved. Leave all your
meager worldly possessions behind.

What a disaster.

6. actual leaflet here
http://bloggingbeirut.com/archives/491-to-all-lebanese-residents.html

rough translation

To The Lebanese Residents
The Israeli army will increase its actions in Lebanon against the continuing terrorist actions of Hizbullah to defend the citizens of the state of israel.
For the sake of your own safety, and in our wish not to harm any civilians that are not implicated, you must keep away from the locations where Hizbollah is present and acting against the state of Israel.
Including:
Locations where missiles are fired in the direction of the state of israel
Locations of Hizbullah's arsenals and military equipment
Hizbollah's centers south of Beirut and areas under its control in the south of Lebanon.
Beirut's southern suburb, the center of terrorism.
The Israeli defense army calls on the Lebanese residents and Lebanese army to refrain from aiding, either directly or indirectly, elements of Hizbollah. Anyone who does will be putting their life in danger.
Know that the persistance of terrorism against the state of Israel is keeping you from a better future.
The state of Israel

7. Will the region be any safer for Israel in the coming years?
The hate will intensify I think. More attacks will happen on both sides. More killing, more destruction. A pox on all involved!

9. If they really cared, they'd send buses to get the residents out.
just like in New Orleans.
