please people. freddom fighters supporters. can some one please tell me how would isreal be able to differentiate hezbollah and civilians since they all dress alike
and can some one also tell me how come aljazeera does not report the iraq sucide bombings
afam we know your in a better postion to answer these questions
it seems you really don't know what you are talking about because Hezbollah is an Army, go watch their training. This is nt Hammas or Al-Qaeda which are suicide bombers, its a political party (Hezb-Allah meaning Party Of God) and they have their own army. Have you ever heard Hezbollah carrying out suicide bombings yet?

Mariory:
Hezbolla fighting for lebanon? Wow talk about buying into propaganda. You obviously have no clue of the politics in Lebanon. Hezbolla are only supported by the Shite area of Lebanon. They are absolutely distrusted and not tolorated by the Christain and smaller Sunni areas of Lebanon.
[Sacarsm]Could this be because they were created by Iran (which is also distrusted by some Arab nations in the Middle East) because it wants to further it's goals in the Middle East? Hmmm I wonder.[/Sacarsm]

Amongnst all the rubbish being spouted in this thread about Isreal and the US, you have ignored the fact that there are Arab nations in the middle east that have normal relations with Isreal. Could it be they were willing to end the state of war with Isreal? Could it be that these countries don't seek the destruction of Isreal? Hmmmm I wonder. Plus what about the Arabs living in Isreal that blame Hezbolla for the current crisis.
Fair enough, I am a Christian as well, and I will tell you what is wrong is wrong? Ok, they have kidnapped 2 israeli soldiers and you are honestly telling us that this is all because of that. If you follow the news well, you would have noticed that by now Israel are no more fighting to release only 2 soldiers, rather to disarm hezbollah. Who is Israel to request that? Do you think that Saudi Arabia for example can ask Israel to disarm themselves? Is that how the world oeprates now. Anyone who seems to be strong or to affect the oil economy of te so called 1st world powers, will have to be removed?

The same article you quote has this at the bottom:
'For many months, the Israelis have been pounding away at open areas such as fields and orchards in an effort to prevent Palestinian militants using them to fire their home-made missiles into nearby Israeli territory.'

Why do you think a country would spend so much money on munitions, firing away at open areas and beaches? israel is willing to go to any length to protect their civillians, a fact which is lost on most Nigerians, we living in a country that could care less about the common people.
Such accidental fatalities are regrettable, no doubt. But u tend to wonder who brought the people in harm's way?

Imagine Anini runs into a house, the police opens fire and an innocent is killed. Does Anini have any right to accuse the police of murder when he himself shares part of the blame? Lame analogy, i'm afraid but its d best i cld come up with at short notice, especially since Anini's been pushing up daisies since the '80s grin.

I could be wrong, but wasn't it the UN that established the resolution creating the nation of israel? if that's right, and the UN is the world's legal regulatory body, doesnt that make it legal?
Your idealogy is barbaric and outdated. What you are talking only happens in places where there is no law. In civilized countries, which we have been thinking that the US and UK are, they do not destroy everyone to get the thief who ran in, if so my friend why would they worry for hostages. If anyone takes people hostage, then bomb the whole building and kill everyone including the hostage taker, is that what you are saying?
Foreign AffairsRe: Israel vs Hezbollah/Lebanon by medube(m): 9:46am On Aug 02, 2006
@davidylan

You are asking why no one is calling for a ceasefire in Iraq to end the killing that goes on from day to day, why would anyone do so? Is it not America who caused is by ignoring the UN resolution not to go to War and Mr. Bush says America does not need permission from anyone before protecting itself. Basically the UN has drawn their hands and let America deal with the hell they have unleashed in Iraq if they will be able to.

The geography of the area makes it a security risk for Isreal if occupied by enemy forces.
All I keep hearing is the security of Israel and the security of America and the security of UK, what the hell? What of the security of other nations? For God sake look at Guantanamo, America seized cubas land and built a mighty prison where rights do no apply. So let Cuba go and invade America to force out those terrorist from Guantanamo?

@ medube
This forum is open to everyone above the age of 13. at least i assume it is so. You're NEVER supposed to post such gruesome pictures in plain sight of any minor who might be viewing the page. You should have posted a link, as well as a disclaimer warning anyone visiting the site that it contains explicit and disturbing pictures. You'd receive at best a temp ban on any other forum out there for that. Show some decency and remove them.
Sorry if those pictures offended anybody, they have been removed.

@kaecy5

While noting wrongly which missile is which, you didnt mention if you also thought that the headless baby and children were computer grahic tricks, neither did you mention if the whole nations on the left were mad while the 3 on the right were the only justified and righteous human on earth?

TayoD:
I have absolutely no sympathy for Hezbollah, but I do feel for the innocent Lebanese, Christain or Muslim does not matter. Hezbolah started this on their own terms, and it is only fair that Isreal ends it in their own terms.
Mr. @TayoD as long as I have not insulted anyone here, I have the right to my opinion. And in that particular statement, are you agreeing with me or arguing with me unless you have not been reading my former posts?
Foreign AffairsRe: Israel vs Hezbollah/Lebanon by medube(m): 10:03pm On Aug 01, 2006
kaecy5:
medube well i can see your really passionate about it, but should i ask u what do u want the jews to do ? fold their arms and watch hezbollah kill them? mind u jews are not christians that would turn the other cheek.
u tell me your solution what do u expect the jews to do. meanwhile like i said earlier the arabs are good are showbiz
and they see death from an isreali as matyrdoom. the funny part is they have groomed their children with these propanganda that the chidren hate jews from scratch. if u doubt u can go here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nadFX6T9N4s&mode=related&search=muslim and here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yr9mH-hPjwU&search=muslim

and i wonder why it really hurts u anyway because these guys have started fighting each other right from the begining even before goliath time so why is this fight different
an averag nigerian knows what to do to stay alive we have beendoing that for years. so don't compare us with these folks jews or arabs alike

the basic question i ask u is simple what if u and really what your a isrealite with so much enemies around u and u keep getting sucide bombers and rockets hauled at u what will your reponse be. and if u don't know inur pix those are katushers not f-14 missiles
take care
My point is when something is done wrong, admit it. You say Hezbollah is fighting Israel right? Who is Israel fighting?

toshmann:
i think the issue is that due to wetsern media propaganda, the world seems not to value human life if the human life is not of the favored countries. that is why when 2 israeli soldiers die, or 2 british soldiers, or 2 US marines it is front page news and when iraqis die, of afghans, or lebanese or palestinians, it is statistics.
Thank you for a very interesting point, that Ive been trying to make since. Another Tsunami hit Indonesia just about at the start of this war which has taken well over 1000 lives, but are you seeing it in the news as much as the last which took a few tourists? Are you seeing it as much as we were seeing, the hurricanes in the US? NO becos we are THIRD WORLD, how sad sad

medube
i can see u have been deceived. this is a grafted computer work
if i might ask u, between isreal and lebanon who fires rocket.
is it because isreal does not dispay or buy in the act of show biz that the arabs are used to?
look at the pix u posted u could see without any enhancement that the words written on it were in arabic and not hebrew maybe u have made up your mindnot to understand the tricks involve in the middle east war.
Is it that you are dumb or what? The missiles are going to Lebanon, what did you expect them to write in Chinese or Igbo? Were the flyers thrown into beirut and other suburbs asking them to deny hezbollah and move out in Hebrew? And for your information, if you dont already know, you do have Arabic Israelis especially those by the border with Lebanon and Syria, so go learn.

If anyone is watching Tony Blair live, you would have enjoyed a question thrown to him from a reporter:

Like Wole Soyinka once said, 5 nations decide what happen in the world today made up of over 200 countries and yet we call it a United Nations smiley

@ 4 play,
They used to the right thing before, not anymore. its not b/c of the US that Blacks are still alive (you have forgotten about slavery abi).
Forget about @4play, I think hes talking out of his a***. Anyways, my opinion is simple, fair enough and well agreed hezbollah need to be dealt with, but why kill innocent. Why blow up the lebanese int airport? Why damage all constructed roads, bridges, infrastructures, etc, ? I wonder if it were the other way round, that Israel went in and kidnapped 2 hezbollah soldiers, would the world have sat down and watch hezbollah do to israel what we are seeing?
Foreign AffairsRe: Israel vs Hezbollah/Lebanon by medube(m): 10:55am On Aug 01, 2006

The rantings of Medube are so imbeccilic that they are not worthy of a a response.
Interesting reply. Easy for you to say and I expected nothing more considering you have turned yourself into a slave and second hand citizen in another man's country and blabbering away.

My dad always said, know your facts well before opening your mouth, and hence I advise you the same.

Are they no kidnappings going on in our Naija (Niger Delta) to be precise? When did you see our government send in the troops and airforce to wipe out the whole villages or communities because of these kidnaps? They dont because it is not democratic or civilised in our modern age. Now you tell me sitting down in UK and supporting the US and co? Followng all reasons that were put forward regarding Iraq, which have you seen to be true? Is it the discovery of WMDs or is it the link with Saddam and the 911 bombing? The fact is there isnt and the main reason for the invasion of Iraq was solely because of oil wealth same as Afgahnistan which happened after the 911 bombin which only took place after a large oil cache was found in the Caspian sea, how coincidental smiley

My friend, I dont not blame your ignorance rather I pray for people like you to wake up and join everyone else in standing up against this domination and opression which we face due to our own faults. If your America is so strong and so sure, why not invade North Korea which is directly threatening the US in the face? Why all of a sudden is Mr. Bush interested in allowing the UN which he condemned b4 entering Iraq to take due course on the North Korea Issue? Why all of a sudden is Mr. Bush so interested in dialogue with North Korea, something which he did not believe was needed with Iraq? Why, I will tell you, because firstly North Korea doesnt have oil to repay back and second North Korea mean all they say and Mr. Bush doesnt want his ass smoked smiley
Foreign AffairsRe: Israel vs Hezbollah/Lebanon by medube(m): 9:51am On Aug 01, 2006
@TayoD

I thnk you better get all your facts right before asking me any question. Before you ask me why did the terrorists (pictured to us on CNN) blew up the World Trade center, ask yourself with all their technology, how 3 planes took off from American airports, left their flight routes and hit 3 American targets? Ask yourself why is it that of all the countries in the world, America is always or as they claim having enemies? Ask yourself if they are fighting for peace and against terror, why havent they dealt with the IRA, the Basque Movement, The Tamil Tigers, the rebels raping, maming and killing people daily in Congo? Ask yourself why 3000 jews that worked in the trade center, were never there on the day of 911?

The main fact is America operates the kill and divide rule, if you know what that means. As far as I am concerned, The greatest land on earth rich with resources is Africa and the greatest land on earth rich with oil is the Middle East, but thee 2 areas will never see peace. Problems are always created on the underground so as to maintain a division, thereby not allowing the people to stand with one voice so as not to control their resources, this giving chance for your so called 1st World countries to become rich of the resources wile we sit and mope with amazement at ther technology.

Have you ever asked yourself why does so many people hate America? Why don't they hate France, Holland, Belgium, Germany, Russia, Philipines, Nigeria, South Africa, I can go on and on? Why don't you ask yourself what gives one man the right to make WMD and not another? And we are all here watching the anihalation of a whole nation because of 2 soldiers, common be real? Are you telling me the losses havent exceeded 2 soldiers or are those their so called Messiahs, considering they don't believe in our Lord Jesus Christ as the Son of God.

God told them in the Bible that they shall never see peace and shall ever see their Promised Land. What they are fighting for, only they know and one day it shall come to be judged. Wake up from your sleep and stop allowing another man steal from you to become greater than you while you are there singing him songs of praise.

You may have your opinions, but basically these are mine and anyone who follow the trends of things, will know it is so, but one day it shall come to change just as the Romans, the Greeks, the British, even Germany once conquered and fell.

@Old Glory

How do you define the word terrorist? Who is a bigger terrorist, the person that enters and kidnaps 2 soldiers or the one that makes false claims, invades a country and eventually makes it worse of than it was? If only you could answer that without being biased,

walelead:
I still remember the days when Nigerian students preferred Ghanian Universities because they were better rated, Ghanian teachers in Nigerian schools were paid higher wages. and Ghanians were generally considered better than Nigerians academically.
FYI Ghanian education is still rated higher than Nigerian. And to even add to that, I know a lot of students who are leaving Nigeria and doing their University education in Ghana till date.
TravelRe: What's Up With Ghana And Nigeria? by medube(m): 12:23am On Jul 11, 2006
Coming from a Nigerian who visited Ghana last xmas, I wouldnt say I saw hatred or jealousy between the 2, rather I will say Ghana look up to Nigera as a big brother. A Ghanian even told me that as we here in Nigera like to visit the US and UK and think its big, to them if someone says he came to Nigeria, its big cool I think thanks to good governance which they have had and we have lacked they have been able to put themselves on a good start to development.

Since the World Cup has entered the crucial stages I thought I might share this with you. If you are in the office and have internet access but cannot watch the World Cup on TV, click on the link:

Click on the match that is live and it will launch you a Yahoo Matchcast box. On this page you will be getting second by second updates on the World Cup as its happening.

Get your facts right, they cannot go home on MOnday when the match is on Tuesday smiley

Seun:
Brazil is not playing well. They just crushed Japan 4-1.
Any proper football analyser will tell you that after the first goal, japan basically played with fear and were not doing anything but trying to contain brazil. On TUesday we will see when a real team like our African brothers meet Brazil what will happen. Nigeria shocked the world in '96 by coming from behind to win Brazil in the olympics and I believe if Ghana play with the spirit they did against Czech, they will do the same.
