Lebanese Massacre

Breaking news: Israeli fighter jets have bombed a residential neighborhood in Tyre near a highscool. LBC’s correspondent in the city described a state of chaos, and bodies lying everywhere. He estimated tens may have been killed.

From Beirut to the Beltway:
The United States and Israel will not end their bloody campaign in Lebanon unless the Lebanese government takes on Iran and Syria. That’s, in essence, what can be concluded from statements by Rice today, and from Israel’s refusal to enter into negotiations or observe a cease-fire.
It defies logic to see the US and Israel to do what they couldn’t do in Iraq and at home respectively. Lebanon has just emerged from decades of Syrian occupation, and is rebuilding its security services with US help. The US has been helping Lebanon in its struggle against Syrian interference. We lost a beloved prime minister and brilliant journalists and intellectuals in this fight. The Hariri investigation, supported by the US, had many Lebanese hoping justice can finally prevail in our country.

Justice for All:
بغض النظر عن وجهة نظري في كون حزب الله بدأ حربا بلا اذن من الشعب اللبناني ام لا او في
عواطفي الطبيعية الشامته في كل يهودي يموت او مبني اسرائيلي يدمر
بالتاكيد ما تصنعه اسرائيل في لبنان هو افتراء وظلم شديدين ويجب ان يقف …يجب ان نقف مع اللبنانيين مع وقف العدوان لان هذا هو الاولوية الاولي الان
هو وقف التدمير
ايف اللبنانية دعت الي المشاركة في تصويت علي السي ان ان ..محتوي السؤال
هل ما تقوم به اسرائل الان من قصف وتدمير مبرر ام غير مبرر؟

Sabbah’s Blog:
THE REAL aim is to change the regime in Lebanon and to install a puppet government. That was the aim of Ariel Sharon’s invasion of Lebanon in 1982. It failed. But Sharon and his pupils in the military and political leadership have never really given up on it.

Kabob Fest:
Ultimately, these are sad days for everyone who is dying and living in fear, whether they be in Palestine, Lebanon or Israel. On a related note, I am finding little sympathy for any of the powers in the region, be they the Israeli or Lebanese governments or non-democratic, non-representative groups like Hamas or Hizbullah.

من أجل التغيير:
للمرة الأولى في تاريخ المواجهات العربية-الإسرائيلية ينقسم العالم العربي على نفسه إزاء التطورات العسكرية والسياسية، فالشارع العربي يطالب بتأييد غير محدود لحزب الله والمقاومة ويتهم النظام العربي الرسمي بالتخاذل والخيانة. وفي المقابل يعرف النظام العربي أن حزب الله خاض مغامرة مستقلة جر معها الدولة اللبنانية والشعب اللبناني إلى شفير الهاوية وأطلق الوحش الإسرائيلي ليدك الشعب اللبناني والبنية التحتية ممارسا سلوكياته النازية الإجرامية، ولكن النظام العربي عاجز عن تقديم المساعدة للبنان ولا يستطيع الإصطفاف وراء مغامرة حزب الله المدعومة بالمحور الإيراني-السوري الذي يخوض حربا بالوكالة ودون خسائر ذاتية من خلال الساحة اللبنانية

Nadz Online:
My main anger here is directed at Nasrallah and his “party of God.” His loyalty does not lie with Lebanon or its people - he’s a dancing monkey for Syria and Iran, who seem to prefer letting other countries fight their wars for them. Makes you wonder why Israel won’t go after them directly. Perhaps the fear of making this conflict a bigger, regional one with higher stakes.

Dubai Sunshine:
My thoughts tonight are with my aunts and cousins in Haifa, Nazareth and Acre…They are stuck in shelters and they are scared.
My thoughts tonight are with those poor, innocent souls, whose lives ended in vain. Civilians, children, families, grandparents, husbands, wives, sons and daughters….haram……ya haram….

Mahmood’s Den:
I think Israel proved its superiority now. In 6 days it’s destroyed almost all the important infrastructure of the country and most if not all tourists have left or are leaving the country. Their economy is destroyed and there is no Hariri to resurrect it.

Mysterious Eve:
الغارات البارحة تجاوزت الثّلاثين. أتقلّب على سريري. يضنيني العدّ. يكاد تقلّبي ينتظم على وقع الدّوي المتكرّر. لوهلةٍ، أخال أنّني لم أعد أنتفض على هديرها. هي أربع ليالٍ مضت؛ أربع ليالٍ وأنا لا أريد أن أنام، والنّوم بدوره لا يريدني؛ أربع ليالٍ وصوت المؤذّن عند الفجر يجدني يقظة… حين يختلط صوته بصوت سهر الضّاحية القريبة، وضجيج أفكاري، يجلس النّوم على حافّة سريري، ونروح نتسامر إلى ما تبقى من ساعات الصّباح…

The Damascene Blog:
srael’s war is with Lebanon’s civilians, not Hizbollah. Nearly every person killed has been a civilian. Power stations, bridges and petrol stations have been targeted. Israel has warned residents to get out of certain villages, but bombed roads to make it difficult - and refugee convoys have been picked out for deadly air raids.

Silly Bahraini Girl:
What is happening in Palestine and Lebanon is enough for every Arab to hang his head in shame! And let’s not confine this feeling of shame and humilation to Arabs alone..for as we all know..we aren’t fully responsible for our fate .. for weak people like us ruled by cowards have no say in their destiny.
