#1 I thought the Clash broke up?...

#2 lets see it's 2007 and the gurus and experts have been saying for 18 years that Israel cannot reach Iran with enough conventional munitions to disable their offensive capability against Israel itself.

Boeing 707 are cheap and plentiful. They can be chopped and channeled and made into bombers easily by Israeli engineers.

They would be deadly Especially with the stand off and accurate weapons that the USA makes, and I'm sure the Israelis can make.

Israel already has tremendous fighters and FUEL tankers, and I'm sure they could find a way to fly there!

So

Nasrallah has been hiding , for security reasons ever since the war ended. Nasrallah said he was personally ready along with Hezbollah's Islamic Resistance to "shoulder responsibility of this promise."

Well ____________________________________________________!

/and no ima not looking for anyone to agree with me.

#4 Hezbollah promised to rebuild the country with 'Halal' Iranian funds, but these funds never made it to Lebanon...

#5 Hezbollah and Amal supporters drove across the streets of the capital and the southern suburbs, or Dahiyeh, at the end of Nasrallah's speech shortly before midnight Tuesday, waving flags , blowing horns and shooting in the air which antagonized the residents of Beirut, that don't share Hezbollah's claim of 'divine victory'.

"Cuz antagonizing is what we Muslims do best!"

Nasrallah has been hiding , for security reasons ever since the war ended.

Sounds like his victory wasnt all that divine then.

Nasrallah said he was personally ready along with Hezbollah's Islamic Resistance to "shoulder responsibility of this promise."

But only from a safe distance.

The summer which Hezbollah is calling a divine victory devastated Lebanon. Over 1280 Lebanese were killed , mostly civilians , over 5000 were wounded , also mostly civilians , over a million Lebanese were made homeless, mostly Shiite Muslims and over 110,000 homes were destroyed. The infrastructure of Lebanon was totally destroyed and all the bridges were leveled. The cost to Lebanon according to the UN exceeds $15 billion, excluding lost revenue.

Another divine victory or two like that one and nobody will have to worry about Lebanon anymore. This is what happens when you let Muslims play with your toys.

Hezbollah promised to rebuild the country with 'Halal' Iranian funds, but these funds never made it to Lebanon, and the people of Lebanon had to assume more debt to pay for rebuilding the country.

Did the funds ever even make it out of Iran? If they did, does anyone want to bet they were diverted towards arms purchases? The real corker is that Shiites suffered the most from Nasrallah's folly. One would think they'd have capped Nasrallah's terrorist ass but nooooooooooooo! I guess that killin' them Jews warrants any amount of senseless suffering and deprivation. So be it.
