| World leaders urge restraint after deadly Middle East flare-up |
| 2006-07-13 |
| ... US President George W. Bush blamed "terrorists who want to stop the advance of peace", while fellow UN Security Council members Russia and France condemned Israel's "disproportionate" use of force. Russia has some serious stones just opening one of their mouths to condemn ANYBODY for disproportionate force... "Hezbollah doesn't want there to be peace, the militant arm of Hamas doesn't want there to be peace, and those of us who do want peace will continue to work together to encourage peace," Bush said. Israeli war planes carried out at least 50 raids across Lebanon on Thursday, including on Beirut airport, a day after the killing of eight Israeli soldiers and the capture of two by Hezbollah guerrillas. Bush, speaking on a visit to Germany, also urged Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad to help pressure Hezbollah to release the Israeli soldiers, adding: "Syria needs to be held to account." Find a DEEP hole, Assad. ... Russia, France, Britain and Italy criticised Israel for its "disproportionate" use of force. Moscow, a member of the diplomatic quartet on Middle East peace, also warned against the region slipping back into war. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov was quoted by the Interfax news agency as warning of a "very dramatic and tragic" outcome to the Middle East violence. |

| #8 It may be more dramatic and tragic than you expected. And F*khead in Iran will be on the receiving end. As for France, et al, who the hell gives a shit about your 2 cents worth ? |

| #6 Israel has been putting up with this for far too long. They have been under siege for years, when they fight back the EUnicks piss themselves. End their ability to attack. |

| #5 I would suggest that Israel start at the border and begin carpet bombing northward until Hezbollah says “uncle” or nobody is left (either is a positive outcome). This should work in Gaza as well. |

| #2 I think so. And I'm all for the disproportionate use of force for Israel. They have had to take so much grief over the years it is time to dish it back out, with intrest. |
