I think the events on the ground should serve as a reminder to all that the so called war on terrorism is a war of choice, not of neccessity. The fact remains that the invasion of Lebanon was arbitrary, based on an assumption that Arabs can be trappled upon, based on previous wars fought, but today we are seeing some spine in their fight back. This shows that continued oppression can develop a backbone in the oppressed and subjucated and it’s time to start a different dialogue in the Middle East, a dialogue between evenly matched neighbors, one that can inflict mutual pain, instead of one sided pain

The world most well equipped nuclear tipped military backed up by the sole superpower on this planet is getting licked by a few militia’s who supposedly are just mad terrorist out to destroy the state of Israel! The actions on the ground show otherwise, it’s a legitimate resistance against an aggressive occupationist force of a regional bully who loves to show of it’s muscle in response to a pinch.

Your articles continue to state the number of rockets Hezbollah lobbes into Israel. Why don’t you mention the number of bombs and artillary shells the Israeli army and airforce lob into Lebanon. If the number of rockets are news, then the other should be news as well. Fair is fair.
