#1 Of course you'll barely hear about the dead Israeli citizen (Arab or Jew) on the mainstream media. I swear the bastards have all been to the mosque and are whackin their foreheads 5 times a day. Frickin traitors.

May God be with all of the innocents killed on both sides. May God, and the Israelis punish those who would intentionally hide behind innocent civilians (knowing that not all civilians are innocent, by a long shot).

#2 Looks like someone at KUNA needs to works on chains of causes and effects, in addition to cause vs effect: "Hezbollah continues launching missiles on Israel's northern parts in retaliation of the Israeli army assault against Lebanon."

"Assault" implies an unprovoked, unjustified attack on the part of Israel. "Retaliation" means Hizb'Allah's attack was an effect. Incorrect use in both cases, within one sentence.

Is there a grammatical impossibility to grasp and express cause+effect in Arabic? is it impossible to say "Hizb'Allah attacked Israel, therefore Israel is providing Hizb'Allah with its just desert. The State of Lebanon has knowingly sheltered Hizb'Allah's terrorist activities, therefore it is responsible for its actions." in Arabic ??? is their conceptual faculty terribly stunted?
