How interesting it is to see that the United States can so boldly say that they are seeking a solution to the violence that has struck Lebanon while news of a new shipment of US weapons to Israel appears. Why can Israel accuse Iran of terrorism because they sell weapons to the Hezbollah while we cannot accuse the US of terrorism when they sell the bombs that are landing on the children of Lebanon to Israel?
In short, sarcastically Condoleezza Rice will arrive to Israel at the same time that the shipment of laser oriented weapons will, maybe she will be the one carrying them. Ironically she comes to find a solution to the violence; her missiles however are themselves the violence. If one looks at it with innocent eyes the solution is simple: come alone and don’t bring the missiles.
Otherwise it seems that targeting the media and journalists is the new sport – just like Iraq. Apart from the TV antennas that were destroyed yesterday, there was 1 dead and 2 wounded in one of the raids on the antenna of a Lebanese TV station in mount-Lebanon, the LBC (for those who don’t know it is a Christian and very much anti-Hezbollah region and station). Also there was an attack on a convoy of journalists of Al-Jazeera, Al-Arabiya and Al-Manar in the south of Lebanon. And today a woman journalist from the AFP has been killed also in the south. The wonders of democracy are not easy to achieve.

Have you seen the caricature of Haju today? it talks about the same thing... It shows a US soldier say that "in order to spread democracy, we should first of all destroy democracy..."
is anybody aware of the fact that the weapon industry is the basis of the U.S economy at the moment, and that without it its economy would collapse?? I think that this fact explains many wars all over the globe... Or let me put it this way: many many people must die and starve in order that some other people live happily (sort of speaking). Now is'nt this a cruel world...?
I want to share with an alarming revelation that I've had. I was walking in the street, and saw a group of ARMED individuals in broad daylight! When looking into this, I've discovered that they ALWAYS fire on CIVILIANS, and sometimes WOMEN, CHILDREN and the ELDERLY! This was all news to me, but apparently it has been going on FOR YEARS! I don't understand how the world can SIT QUIETLY while this continues to happen: these "policemen" have to be stopped!
In other words, how about some context? (from your perspective, that is)
Interesting site. Useful information. Bookmarked.
