Have a valium and a nice lay down. Quite the jew hater
arent we. TUT TUT...

There is evidence of militia hiding amongst civilians on
the BBC news website two days ago. And even to suggest
they arent more the fool for you.

Coservative estimates of Hizbollah terrorists by NGOs on the ground right now are in the 20 000-30 000 range. The leftist mind is blind to the reality of what this situation is. Islam being Islam, Trust the left to side with the enemy time and again.

No Tabouli

The official line from Israel that Lebanon should have removed and disarmed Hizbollah is breathtaking in its cycnicism. This is the job they are trying to do themselves with very great difficulty with far greater military capacity than the Lebanese army. Did the US offer any plane loads of glide bombs to Lebanon to help with that task? Not likely.

But as usual, the spin from Israel is one of some sort of fall from grace on the part of the Lebanese that now compels the Israelis to intervene. And spare us all the guff about Hezbollah fighting amongst civilians, what about the civilians killed in the UN Post? And what about the bombing of Beirut Airport? How many rockets were fired from there?

Did Israel get rid of Menachem Begin and the Stern Gang terrorists? No, he made it to PM.

And as for history and the denial of land to Jews, Serfs had no land either and frankly, stories about getting ripped off in a financial deal with a Baron or Prince hardly equate with the abject misery that was the unending lot of ordinary men and women of the time. Get real fellas, that stuff may go down in barbie world, but not here.

I am afraid there are photos showing the Hezbollah with guns amongst civilians. The bombing of Beirut Airport is irrelevant to that arguement.

And here is a Lebanese article blaming Hezbollah for the Qana atrocity.

It acuses Hezbollah of deliberately placing disabled children inside the building to gain international attention.

And Menachem Begin and the Stern Gang stopped being terrorists.

One of the UN staff killed in the UN post had sent an email to the world claiming that Hezbollah were using the post as a screen.

And the US might just send troops in so don't speak to loudly. They hate the Islamacists more than do the Israelis. (New York). And England Spain Denmark and India are not too keen either.

Not sons of the soil but the Tower was no Holiday.

By the middle of the thirteenth century the Jews of England, like those of the Continent, had become chattels of the king. There appeared to be no limit to the exactions he could impose upon them, though it was obviously against his own interest to deprive them entirely of capital, without which they could not gain for him usurious interest.

Further prejudice had been raised against the Jews just about this time by the revival of the blood libel, a charge of ritual murder. The king had sold the Jewish community to his brother Richard of Cornwall in Feb., 1255, for 5,000 marks, and had lost all rights over it for a year. But in the following August a number of the chief Jews who had assembled at Lincoln to celebrate the marriage of a daughter of Berechiah de Nicole were seized on a charge of having murdered a boy named Hugh.

Ninety-one were sent to London to the Tower, eighteen were executed for refusal to plead, and the rest were kept in prison till the expiry of Richard's control over their property.

BTW, it is incredible that Shepherd is so bigoted towards Israelis/Jews that she can attribute no wrong to Hamas or Hezbollah. Shepherd should be sentenced to live out her days under the full strictures of Islamic law like that which applies in Hezbollahland (formerly southern Lebanon), Iran, Somalia or Saudi Arabia. This would be a fitting punishment for any leftist sympathiser of Hamas or Hezbollah. I am a progressive that believes that we MUST unfortunately fight to protect progressive, secular values against the forces of medieval darkness and benighted religion.

'I am a progressive that believes that we MUST unfortunately fight to protect progressive, secular values against the forces of medieval darkness and benighted religion.'

So Kvasir, you seem not to include the Jewish faith in 'the forces of medieval darkness and benighted religion'.

Is that because you are a bigoted secular progressive. ;-)
