Israel invades Lebanon - Page 5

i agree wid delilah, israel iz the cause of terrorism........ israel really doz not have 2 stop terrorim, if thats wat sum of u think that israel is doing, stopping terrorism, cuz there r other powerful nations that cud do that instead, israel shud just luk after its citizens, cuz thats the only thing they can do, destroy others and only protect themselves and their so called land.

What Israel is doing is only going to harbor more violence. They are only providing another reason for the outfits like Hezbollah to grow in number and strength. By attacking the Lebanese and creating havoc there, they will create more frustration amongst the people and the vicious circle of violence will continue...

PALSTINE IZ BOMBING THE ISRAELIS???????? wat r u guys trying 2 say, that the palestinians r doing everything, the israelis dont do nothing, they r the ones that r trying 2 ruin everything 4 the palestinians, ur just trying 2 say that its all from the palestinains, not from the israelis who have support from the USA, cuz thats wat it seems lyk from ur comments???????

   Mini, calm down. We are not 'saying' anything. The terrorist groups are themselves saying everything and taking pride in it.

   If I get a bomb in my backyard, I am going to lob some too. After a while, it becomes a two way game, and everyone forgets who launched the first attack.

  To give it's due, Israel for it's part did quite a few things to at least make it appear that they are ready for some peace. They actually EVACUATED Gaza. It was the Israelies who EVACUATED Lebanon, even while fully knowing that the Lebonese govt will never be able to secure it's borders all by itself.

  So perhaps you could point out a few things that Palestine did to give the message that what they really want is peace and progress instead of a one track agenda of getting rid of jews, and in general getting rid of anyone who is a non muslim..........

  Interestingly, there are almost 1 million arabs in Israel, and yet not a single jew in Palestine...do set me right if I am wrong......

Agree 100%

Don't know when all of this will end.

 

During the Kargil war,more Pakistani soldiers died in in comparison to the Indian soldiers(correct me if I'm wrong)...Does that mean that Pakistan was not at fault because more number of soldiers died???NO!!Pakistan instigated everything.....Mere numbers are NOT a yardstick
