NOW? Offering Video, Israel Answers Critics on War
2006-12-05
Kinda late, doncha think, Ehud?

JERUSALEM — Israel’s military, which has been accused of abuses in its war against Hezbollah this summer, has declassified photographs, video images and prisoner interrogations to buttress its accusation that Hezbollah systematically fired from civilian neighborhoods in southern Lebanon and took cover in those areas to shield itself from attack.

Lebanon and international human rights groups have accused Israel of war crimes in the 34 days of fighting in July and August, saying that Israel fired into populated areas and that civilians accounted for a vast majority of the more than 1,000 Lebanese killed. Israel says that it tried to avoid civilians, but that Hezbollah fired from civilian areas, itself a war crime, which made those areas legitimate targets.

#8  OP--add to that the forcible expulsion of all Muslims from Israel, Gaza and the WB. Send the raghead sons of whores back to their brethren and let's see how their Arab brothers and sisters treat them. Israel needs to realize that it doesn't matter what they do or how justified they are, they will never get any credit for it from the MSM or the UN. So they should tell the MSM and UN to go fuck themselves and take all the actions necessary to defend their land and property. World opinion goes with a winner--period.

#7  Phase 2 should begin with nuking Beirut, Damascus, the Bekaa, and everything between the Israeli border and the Latani River. It won't make any difference in world opinion, and it will certainly spare Israeli lives. Just make sure the wind is out of the south.

#6  Waste of the Israelis time. Those who hate them will neither care for the truth or change their hateful opinions even in the face of overwhelming evidence.


Worse than that, there are many decent people who would care but they will never know about this because the MSM will not tell them.

#5  Describes everything perfectly, 'Moose. Short of using nukes, what could Israel possibly do that would increase the enmity shown them by virtually everyone on the planet?

Nothing, Ehud, nothing.

The US approaches this same status... We may be the Great Satan, but we're still second-fiddle to Israel in the Hate Marathon™... by a hair or two, anyway.

#3  A third Hezbollah man, Maher Kourani, said group members had worn civilian clothes, tried never to show their weapons, and traveled in ordinary civilian cars. “We use Volvos, Mercedes, BMW,” he said. “We use Range Rovers, too.”


Nice sets of wheels if you can get them i s'pose . I guess we can hazard a guess as to where international releif funds were spent . Ordinary civilian cars indeed *scoff* . Makes targeting easier aswell .. brand new Range Rover or that burnt out delapidated Skoda for target aquisition please base1 ?
