A few questions for Kofi Annan : Comments

By John E. Carey, published 2/8/2006

For the last 50 years deterrence meant nuclear weapons. Is that next for Hezbollah? Kofi?

Isn't it funny how quickly equal opportunity is forgotten when the bombs start to fall. Although I agree with the going out of ones way to protect innocent children, I find it more than ammusing that equality of women is suddenly forgotten.

Marilyn, as far as Beirut is concerned, where do you think the C-802 anti-ship missile was fired from? The Isreali attacks, far from being carpet-bombing, are designed to destroy combatants and infrastructure required by Hezbollah, as well as stockpiles of munitions. Hezbollah can hide stockpiles in Beirut just as easy (if not easier) than on the border.

Marilyn, I always thought you were a loony leftist, not a moron.

Lets look at your defense of the photos.
1) The place where the military equipment and personnel have generally not been blown up and is a Christian neighbourhood.

Isn't it perfectly obvious why would Hezbollah want to hide amongst Christians in an area that hasn't been hit? Other than wanting to get Christians killed and avoid attacks that is.

2) No hezbollah flag.

Yep. those terrorists trying to blend into the civilian population would definitely fly a hezbollah flag. Duh...they're terrorists, not morons.

3) Hezbollah has rockets with a range of a little over 70 km (Farj-5 I think). But then, Israeli military equipment hasn't just stayed in Israel has it? nor has it been expected to. Unless you are militarily clueless, the placement of weapons in beirut does have strategic importance.

4) If the US vetoed every UN resolution against Israel, then how is it possible that 88 Security council resolutions have been passed against Israel.

Join reality Marilyn.

Surely there are many more countries that do worse human rights violations than Israel. Why would they be subject to 1/3 of ALL UN resolutions?

We should not blame Israel they are the point of the knife thrust towards the hearts of those people who happen to live in Countries with lots of oil, America/Israel have a agenda the Demolition of the Mosque in Jerusalem and take total control of the worlds oil supplies, so they must be the villains, who are fighting for freedom, freedom to dominate the region, to kick arses
Today think about the little children who are to be buried, think about the bastards who have the smoking gun that killed them, how many Australians are involved hundreds, why do we not arrest them we cant because they are Israeli,s as well, the Aussie Passport is for hiding behind, it also allows you to vote here in Australia, while every two years you plod off to Israel to learn how to use tools to butcher none Jews,

Maybe some of you people might believe this Jewish man about what is really happening here.

And you might like to read the transcript from the Israeli military man on the 7.30 report last night that showed they wanted to blow Lebanon back 20 years and that was February last year.

Now let's grow up. The Hezbollah would not ever be allowed into christian areas for heavens sake, no rockets have been fired from Beirut, all the shi'ite suburbs in Beirut have been blown to bits by Israel.

I don't believe this tripe. See what the Jewish man says about all of this. It could have been stopped in 2 days but Israel refused. And it was in the planning with Ariel Sharon.

Olmert is singing from the same deluded song book as Bush.

Now some of you just better ask yourselves why you believe arabs are so inhuman. They didn't commit the holocaust that was the Germans with the silent complicity of the rest of us.

I am not in the least bit loony, I have never been in the least bit loony and I object strongly to these constant personal attacks without substantial debate.

The HUN was had with that stupid photo and I don't believe all those little missiles are being flung into Israel when the damage is so tiny and the death toll so small.

Olmert's only goal was to smash the lives and structures of an entire portion of the Lebanese people. That is utterly illegal and is also the tactics the nazis used against the Jews not the tactics the Lebanese or Palestinians have used against the Israelis..

There is simply no balance - tell me how many people even bothered to find out that the arabs were not asked if they wanted the Jews yet they got them out of the guilt of the US, UK, France and Germany. Now give me a debate, not nonsense.
Do not forget ever that the same lunatic who brought us the invasion of Iraq is running the show and he was wrong on every issue.

Logic

You are a despicible bastard. not once have I denigrated the Jewish faith or Jews. Yet you accuse me of just that. Apologise or be damned as the liar you are.

Logic I am with Keith, you are despicable and a bastard. For heaven's sake calling a war wrong doesn't mean I hate Jews.

No Jew on the planet has ever harmed a hair on my head but neither have any of my arab, catholic or muslim friends because they understand up front that I am not interested in their religion only in them as people.

Why on earth is it allowed to be vile about communists, muslims, and all other minority groups but not say when Jewish people get it wrong?

The Israeli army have now conceded they were wrong in Qana but that still doesn't mean I hate Jews - it simply means I hate killing.

I don't know who logic really is but he/she should stop the cowardice of hiding behind pseudonyms - I dont'.
