Finally??
August 12, 2006
"Israel will halt its war in Lebanon at 7 a.m. Monday (midnight EDT Sunday night). Israel's Cabinet was to endorse the U.N. cease-fire resolution later Sunday.


Israeli helicopters, meanwhile, flew hundreds of commandos into the Hezbollah heartland, and some army units reached the Litani River on Saturday as both sides indicated they would accept the U.N. cease-fire plan to stop heavy fighting still raging in southern Lebanon."

I wish, from all my heart, this happens and this nightmare ends.

A Very Proud Lebanese
August 09, 2006
A Lebanese civilian wrote this letter:

" From a Deeply Wounded Heart…

Dear Sirs,
It is very easy to make war…
It is hard to make peace…
It is very hard to maintain it…
It is quite unfortunate that most of the world, including yourselves and the so-called "international community", always choose the "easy" way…
As far as I remember, and further to the 9/11 tragic events, President Bush had vowed to "preserve and keep international peace", and I quote a part of his speech on September 11, 2002, where he states:

"We will use our position of unparalleled strength and influence to build an atmosphere of international order and openness in which progress and liberty can flourish in many nations. A peaceful world of growing freedom serves American long-term interests, reflects enduring American ideals and unites America's allies."

It is quite unfortunate that those who condemn "terrorism" the most, are the ones who foster it most in other countries…
It is quite unfortunate that those who talk about worldwide peace the most, are the ones who least preserve it…
It is quite unfortunate that those who claim to be the defenders of nations' Liberty, Sovereignty and Freedom, are those who violate them the most…

Ironically enough, and even more sadly, some people seem to have a wrong conception of the "atmosphere of international order and openness in which progress and liberty can flourish in many nations "…

It seems that the above sentence means quite the opposite, as if it were a figure of speech, when one says one thing but means right the converse…
It seems that the multiple UN Resolutions issued in favor of peace in the Middle East and especially in our so dear agonizing Lebanon, have been a nice "puppet show" for the international opinion and a mere waste of paper and ink…
It seems that the "deep wound" of the shocking occurrence of September 11th, 2001, has healed much quicker than we thought, and has been forgotten much sooner than it should have been…
It seems that all the bitterness and sorrow that some "great" nations tasted, have so rapidly vanished…

It is so heartbreaking that the main founder of the "International Convention of Human Rights", witness the very outrageous rape of the latter in its own territory…
It is so unacceptable that the main founders and/or promoters of the "Geneva Convention", arrogantly violate it in other countries, and yet somehow brag about it…
It is such a shame and disgrace that the UN Security Council meet twice and issue no resolution or decision for an immediate "cease fire" and peace process in the Middle East…

It seems that Israeli terrorism has been given some kind of "cover" or green light by the so biased UN, to continue its inhuman actions against "disposable third-world-humans"… And the "great" nations along with the "international community" just sit there and watch, or should I say "enjoy the show"…
It seems that terrorism, when "adopted" by other nations, is quite acceptable…
It seems that terrorism, when "adopted" by other nations, is synonym for "self defense"…
It seems that terrorism, when "adopted" by other nations, is a legitimate right to commit massacres against Humanity…
It seems that the executioner, the slaughterer, the killer, the assassin and the slayer have all become the victim…
It seems that the terrorists are slaughtered unarmed civilians…
It seems that the terrorists are shredded children…
It seems that the terrorists are amputated elderly men and women…
It seems that the terrorists are massacred families in their homes…
It seems that the terrorists are the civil defense rescuers buried half-alive under their bombed quarters…
It seems that the terrorists are the firefighters murdered when doing their heroic duty…
It seems that the terrorists are the Red Cross members butchered while doing their rescue attempts…
It seems that military targets are the shelters where hundreds of helpless agonizing civilians were so brutally massacred…
It seems that military targets are hospitals and care centers…
It seems that military targets are civilian roads and bridges in a way to isolate the needy and the ill in remote areas…
It seems that military targets are Churches and Mosques…
It seems that military targets are national fresh water dams…
It seems that military targets are homes, houses and civilian buildings…
It seems that military targets are Red Cross vans and civilian rescue vans…
It seems that military targets are food & supply trucks…
It seems that military targets are water ducts and all infrastructures…
It seems that military targets are civilian ports and grain storage premises…
It seems that military targets are the Beirut International Airport & all its runways in addition to its gas tanks…
It seems that military targets are telephone lines and antennas…
It seems that military targets are internet service providers…
It seems that military targets are gas tanks and fuel tanks of private companies…
It seems that military targets are gas stations throughout the country in a way to cripple civilians…

Or are the "CNN" lenses blind when it comes to showing the real picture in Lebanon???

It is true that they show pictures of a few wounded Israeli soldiers all day long, with some "nagging" here and there, in addition to damaged Israeli military targets…
But they never show the tragedy inflicted by the barbarian random Israeli shelling of all Lebanon, and the screams of agonizing civilians on the roads with shattered missing parts and organs…
It is quite amazing how, for a couple of prisoners, they turn an entire country to ruins…

What would they do then, if more than two soldiers were captured, or if their homes, possessions, and work of an entire lifetime were totally destroyed in a matter of minutes or even seconds???
Burn the entire continent?! Or maybe half the Globe!

If for a mere couple of prisoners they apply the policy of burnt land and mass destruction…
If for a mere couple of prisoners they use internationally banned weapons like:
-Disintegrating bombs which cause many more casualties and fatalities
-Phosphoric bombs that burn everything in their path and upon impact
-Chemical toxic weapons with odors causing nausea, vomiting, headache and maybe many more effects "yet-to-be-discovered"

And with all the above, the "great" nations (which by the way have nothing "great" in them except their lies and broken promises) see that nothing is wrong, and is all acceptable… Then it should also be acceptable that all those means be used, God forbid, against them too…
But then again, I wouldn't wish for anyone to "taste that bitter cup"…
Not even for those who bring humiliation to Humanity…

From underneath the ruble of a country being reborn…
From the heart of the fire that is purifying our souls…
From the solid determination of our engraved faith…
From the proud rise of our eternal Cedars…
I tell you and shout to the world in a loud confident voice:

We are here to stay!!!


And no matter how twisted and ruthless the enemies' ways are,
I quote President Bush's speech when he addressed the Nation after the 9/11 disaster, and
ensure you:
"Make no mistake… we will prevail" !!!


LONG LIVE FREE LEBANON!!!"

Cease Fire Petition

The world cannot allow the bloodshed in the Middle East to continue. Thousands of innocent civilians have been killed and wounded, almost 1 million made homeless, and a catastrophic larger conflict is possible. We call on US President Bush, UK Prime Minister Blair and the UN Security Council to support UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan's call for an immediate ceasefire and an international force to stabilize the situation.Olmert to support Kofi Annan's proposal. If millions of people join this call, and we advertise our views in newspapers in the US, UK, and Israel, we can help pressure these leaders to stop the fighting.


Please click below and sign the petition. 81,600 have signed it so far.

Ghost Town
South Lebanon got destroyed during the past four weeks, but you could still see cars and people wandering around from time to time. Now it is a ghost town. Yesterday, Israel threatened to blast any moving vehicles Tuesday as ground fighting intensified. Their airstrikes killed at least 19 Lebanese civilians and Arab governments called for a full Israeli withdrawal as a condition of any cease-fire; Seniora is doing an amazing job, it may be taking time but job well done for someone under such world wide pressure who gets barely any sleep. In Tyre you only see pedestrians walking around; the roads and highways were deserted throughout the region because of the Israeli threat. Although Israel said it would not attack humanitarian convoys, the U.N. was not taking any chances. So now, the civilians will not be getting any aids either. Even the U.N. believes that Israel is firing at anyone in sight, not only militia. When this is all over, the person who should be marked the real terrorist of the century is Olmert alongside his dog, Peretz; I hope they both rot slowly!!

Cock War!?!
August 06, 2006
They say that the purpose of the War on Lebanon is to untimately have ever-lasting peace in the region. Few days ago, France and the U.S. had a peace talk and agreed on a draft U.N. resolution to put a stop to the violence by early next week. I was relieved when they finally committed to stop the war. But I feel this is just the beginning and it wont end here, I hope I'm wrong. Anyway, if you noticed, both Israel and Hezbollah intensified their attacks during the past few days, since the peace talks took place. Each of them wants to come out of this war "victorious". Each wants to show the rest of the world which of them is stronger. Its no longer a war for peace and freedom. Its a war of ego. Its a Cock War!!

Is There an End?
Although Israel stated recently that by the end of next week, this war should end. We are now in the fourth week of the War on Lebanon. However, he also stated that the war wont end till an international peacekeeping force is deployed along the border, and that could take weeks. MORE BULLSHIT! Today, Israeli troops have crossed 2 miles into Lebanon and plan on making it 10 by the end of the day raiding village after village to clear out all Hezbollah members. Press all over the world accuse Israel of justifying targeting innocent civilians by stating that they are Hezbollah strongholds and Hezbollah is being accused of using civilian areas as launching points for their rockets and then moving on to other locations. Personally, I think both sides are full of shit since they are using civilians as sheilds and are only killing civilians on both sides with very minimal casualities are of military members.

Not Looking Good
Few hours ago, the Syrian President, Bashar Al-Assad, asked his army to be placed on high alert status. Now what? Who knows what this could mean!! Could be some sort of defense strategy or could it mean the one thing that nobody wants?? If Syria gets involved, so will Iran. And definitely the U.S. and Britain have to back up Israel. And others will join. This could end up in World War III if its not stopped ASAP. And, ofcourse, Lebanon will be used as the battle area.

A Pause
July 31, 2006
Israel suspended air strikes on Lebanon for 48 hours to investigate the strikes on Qana yesterday, killing 56 people, most of whom were women and children. Hezbollah also did not fire any rockets on Israel last night. All those dead women and children bought Lebanon only two days of peace, and I doubt we will get past one day. Also, Rice has finally given in to all the foreign pressure because she is witnessing first-hand experience of this slaughter, unlike Bush who is at home trying on the new sweater Blair got him. WE DONT WANT A BREAK, WE WANT THIS TO STOP!!!!!!
Update: Cease-fire my ass. Israel continues to strike south Lebanon. Rice is calling for an immediate cease-fire now and asking for international forces to be depolyed along the border. And Israel refuses cease-fire and vows to continue and broaden its attacks and is already recruiting 20,000 additional troops preparing for an intense ground assault on Lebanon. I smell a second Palestine.

Dahiyeh (Before & After)
BEFORE


AFTER

Look at the difference!! First picture, you cant find any empty spots; second one, no comment. Keep in mind, Israel is striking only Hezbollah strongholds... All Dahiyeh is Hezbollah strongholds??? Next thing you know, their excuse will be that they had to destroy all these buildings cos they were in the way of the targets they really wanted.

Children Massacre
July 30, 2006
27 CHILDREN MASSACRED!!! Less than 10 minutes ago, an Israeli airstrike on Qana killed 50 people and destroyed dozens of homes. Those people were all hiding on the ground floor in a three-story building to escape being hurt. Olmert, that son of a bitch, actually had the nerve to defend this attack saying that Qana is a war zone and that the residents were warned to evacuate the area. And worse, Rice postpones her trip to Lebanon and was "deeply saddened by the terrible loss of innocent life", describing it as an "awful consequence", yet....... she still refuses to implement an immediate cease-fire!!! What the fuck has to happen for you retards supporting this war to realize this is not about Hezbollah anymore; its about destroying Lebanon. What the hell did the children do to deserve this? I see no difference between the Israelis and the Nazis. Apparently, Lebanese innocent lives are not enough for the world to realize that Israel must be stopped immediately; Hezbollah is just gonna retaliate with more and more Israeli casualities. That Olmert son of a bitch must be killed and before he dies, revive him, and kill him again and again 500 times for the Lebanese innocent lives that he has taken only to show how big of a man he is. CHILDREN!!! You fuckn man you!!
Sorry about all the insults, but I have been shaking since I heard the news.
