air france the 22
This makes one wonder how systematic was the Israeli destruction of Lebanese infrastructure if the first plane manages to land in Beirut international airport onl days after the ceasefire. In any case this is a blessed development amidst a sea of poor developments. The French anounced they will only send 200 soldiers (a far cry from the initial 3000) putting the number of 15000 troops at risk as other governments pull out as well. In addition the International force will not disarm Hezbollah and neither will the Lebanese army. Hezbollah will stay in the South with "concealed" weapons. This means tht the July 12th attack is going to happen again and I persume that within the next 8-10 months. Unfortunately, I fear that when that happens, Israel will not be calmed through UNSC resolutions as 1701 will become as meaningless as 1559. They will see those resolutions as mainly meant to calm things down at their expense. Those who support Lebanon and support peace must support a full implementation of 1701 or will be here again in a matter of months to a tune of far worse disasters on both sides.
TMENA - Yes, it does make one wonder doesn't it. Oh those Lebanese, they're such drama queens... and they have the audacity to claim more loss in civilian lives than Israel, and what's with the whole 60 dysfunctional bridges all the way up to Akkar??? At the current market value of Israeli civilian life (roughly equivalent to 15 civilian Lebanese lives), the Lebanese loss in civilian lives isn't even comparable to that of Israel. What are they whining about? It must be that darn effective propaganda machine that Hizbo has. Ah well...
desclaimer: I won't acknowledge any knee-jerk characaterization of me as a supporter of HA/Terror/Arab Nationalism. I'm a Lebanese patriot, fullstop.
To everyone
I think that my comment has sparked an entirely wrong debate. To be sure, IT WAS NOT ABOUT A COMPETITION OF WHO SUFFERED MORE. Everybody here suffered. Those with more and those with less. My comment was also not about the blame game, as there is much of that to go around.
The main point of my comment was that with the way things are going down right now with resolution 1701 disappearing into the thin air; we will all be back here again and sooner, way sooner, than we would like! None of you in your comments has related to this situation and how it could be prevented before it is too late and that is a shame. The main issues here as I see them are Hezbollah and Lebanon's sovereignty as a solution to it all.
Therefore I apologize to Raja if my comment has sparked the wrong debate on a post meant as a sign of hope. My eyes, as should everybody's, should be looking forward... not back.
love the photo, thanks raja!
Ahhh the Middle Eastern spirit, Persistent Perserverence over tough times.
nasurr... I've seen it in russian and english
gosudarynya dorogaya "unquestioningly stand by Israel Don't you blame Israel for everything, this president of yours doesn't let Israel talk to Syria, just because of your war in Iraq. If it was for us to deside, shabaa & golan would be syrian now (ofcourse, if Bashar would have sign a peace threaty - and it looks like he would). In the past Bush even got Israely head of security council fired, just because of a sattelite deal with China. So all of these claiming the zionist rule America, don't know how harmfull Bush is for us.
>>If HN is giving them rockets, at least he is not emptying them on their heads like your country did.<<
Of course, that's exactly the opposite of the truth; in embedding military targets in civillian homes and areas, that is exactly what he is doing: ensuring that rockets will get emptied on their heads.
Air france the 22? it's 23 and am still stuck outside Lebanon!
arghhhh I can't find places earlier than September 15. Yalla bye bye sheghel :S
