Syria 'ready for possible regional war'
By ASSOCIATED PRESS
BEIRUT
Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Moallem crossed into Lebanon Sunday for the
first visit by a top Syrian official in more than a year, Lebanon's state
news agency said.
Speaking to reporters after the meeting with his Lebanese counterpart, Fawzi
Salloukh, Moallem said "Syria is ready for the possibility of a regional war
if the Israeli aggression continues."
He added that a US-French draft resolution to end the war "adopted Israel's
point of view only." Underlining his support for Hizbullah, Moallem said,
"as Syria's foreign minister I hope to be a soldier in the resistance."
Salloukh said that "Israel cannot take in peace what it had failed to take
in war."
"If Israel attacks Syria by any mean, on the ground, by air, our leadership
ordered the armed forces to reply immediately," he said after emerging from
a meeting with Lebanese President Emil Lahoud.
Israel has issued several pledges not to attack Syria.

I think they've all been ready for regional war for quite a while.

It's probably fortunate for Israel they did this now instead of
3 years down the road... and I doubt any of this fighting is going
to change how the Arabs feel about the Jews.
Time for Israel once again to live life on high alert, 24x7.
Kinda sad really. Israeli civilians are such peaceful people,
with large numbers of them living on communal farms and engaging
in the global marketplace, but their government has to constantly
be at conflict in order to provide security.

Spiraling hatred and anger on both sides. Westerners trying to make and
remake the region for a century now, poking around in that wasp's nest.
Radicalize, ruin, re-radicalize, rage. There's evil on both sides and
they'll be making war from day to day, decade to decade until the whole ME
is a shambles. Or until someone on one side or the other figures out a way
to get the upper hand.

TEHRAN (AFP) - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has called for
Israel to "pack up" and move somewhere outside the Middle East.
"I advise them to pack up and move out of the region before being
caught in the fire they have started in Lebanon," said Ahmadinejad, who
has repeatedly called for the Jewish state to be relocated elsewhere on
the planet, the state news agency IRNA reported.

I tend to think that Islamic militants would still be militant
whether Israel is there or not. Israel is just a convenient
excuse for some Islamic religious nut to get violent. Perhaps
we should remove all the individuals and countries which are

"Islamic militants" sounds like some kind of an out of control
extra-terrestrial specie that just landed on earth a couple of decades
ago. Let's not forget that Islamic militant groups such as Hezbollah
and Hamas came to existence as a result of extreme violence that the
local populations have been suffering in the hands of Israel over the
past 50 years. Hezbollah was born from the union of a bunch of 20 year
olds who decided to resist the invading forces of Israel in Lebanon in
the early 80's. Despite all the odds, they eventually managed to kick
out Israelis from their country after over 20 bloody years. Most, if
not all of these groups, enjoy the support and backing of the
populations and would easily win in any free election in their
respective countries.

Well, unfortunately for the Lebanese native population, the
hezbolla have incited Israel to invade Lebanon, and the
hezbolla cannot protect the Lebanese against an army that
size. On the surface of it, the benefit to the native
Lebanese of having hezbolla in their midst is dubious at
best.
Am I missing something here ? I'm sure you have a different

Lebanese greatly and I am wondering how you think they

started ?

By the early 80's it had become obvious that the only option left for
the Lebanese to free themselves from Israeli invaders was to resort to
violent means of self defense. Hezbollah volunteers made this possible
by making huge sacrifices which is why they have such strong support
from the Lebanese. Even today after this massive destruction of their
country, Lebanese fully support Hezbollah because they know that these
fighters are their only remaining chance to freedom and independence.
If you want to know more about Hezbollah's origins and mandate, I
invite you to watch this interview with their leader:
http://tinyurl.com/nt9gg
The forced withdrawal of Syria from Lebanon a few months ago, should
have been a heads up for the Lebanese that Israeli jets will be
bombarding their cities again. This assault has been planned and
prepared for a while now. The kidnapped soldiers story was just a
pretext to execute the plan and has nothing to do with Hezbollah's
recent actions.

are better off now than when the Israel-Hezbolla conflict
started ?



By the early 80's it had become obvious that the only option left for
the Lebanese to free themselves from Israeli invaders was to resort to
violent means of self defense. Hezbollah volunteers made this possible
by making huge sacrifices which is why they have such strong support
from the Lebanese. Even today after this massive destruction of their
country, Lebanese fully support Hezbollah because they know that these
fighters are their only remaining chance to freedom and independence.

Lebanon had freedom and independence before the hezbolla foolishly
incited Israel to invade. I don't have much sympathy for hezbolla
here. They deserve what they get (because they asked for it).
That's really pathetic, drawing young male Lebanese natives
into the hezbolla group, and then putting them in a situation
like this where they're going to get slaughtered.


If you want to know more about Hezbollah's origins and mandate, I
invite you to watch this interview with their leader:

http://tinyurl.com/nt9gg

The forced withdrawal of Syria from Lebanon a few months ago, should
have been a heads up for the Lebanese that Israeli jets will be
bombarding their cities again. This assault has been planned and
prepared for a while now. The kidnapped soldiers story was just a
pretext to execute the plan and has nothing to do with Hezbollah's
recent actions.

Israel is just a convenient

excuse for some Islamic religious nut to get violent. Perhaps
we should remove all the individuals and countries which are
attacking Israel (this hasn't been tried yet either).

It would be interesting to see a nation with more nuclear firepower than France be moved forcefully.

Oil companies and weapon manufacturers should pay for this one. They
are the ones who have profited the most from the chaos that Israel has
created in the region. However, given the costs could be astronomical
(remember relocating 7000 Israelis down the road last year cost
American tax payers alone over 4 billion dollars), we should get
building subcontracting companies such as Halliburton, and the emerging
Security industry to chip in as well.

Yes. True. And you're ignoring the point that the genocide in Sudan had
nothing to do with Israel. And the terrorist activity in Bali and India
have nothing to do with Israel. There are other examples, from other

Twenty-seven years ago was 1979, the year that Islamist radicals loyal
to the Ayatollah Khomeini invaded the US embassy in Tehran and held
dozens of American diplomats hostage for the next 444 days.
Washington's response was weak and feckless, as it would be time and
again in the years that followed. Only after 9/11 did the United States
finally acknowledge that it was in a war with militant Islam and begin
fighting back in earnest. But not against Iran, which continues,
unscathed and unrepentant, to stoke the terrorist fires. Its goals,
unchanged since Khomeini's day, are to become the dominant power in the
Middle East, to create Islamist regimes worldwide, to annihilate
Israel, and to kill Americans.

Stat could respond to this much better than I but you realize, of course,
that the US embassy in Teheran was where Kermit Roosevelt, CIA agent
extraordinaire, managed the overthrow of democratically elected SECULAR
government more than 50 years ago. Do you see any correlation or even
poetry in what happened in '79?

Washington's response was weak and feckless, as it would be time and
again in the years that followed. Only after 9/11 did the United States
finally acknowledge that it was in a war with militant Islam and begin
fighting back in earnest.

Do you think Islam might be a little less militant if the West would stop
trying to make and remake the Middle East? This has been a trial by error
experiment that's gone on for over a century now.

But not against Iran, which continues,
unscathed and unrepentant, to stoke the terrorist fires. Its goals,
unchanged since Khomeini's day, are to become the dominant power in the
Middle East, to create Islamist regimes worldwide, to annihilate
Israel, and to kill Americans.

I'd be happy if just for once you could see some brainwashed, trite
Bushclone take a look at the "other side" of history, admit that the West is
more than a little responsible for the current state of affairs in the ME
and see of just one small ray of light might alter one person's
determination to see annihilation of someone in that part of the world.
This isn't supposed to happen. People aren't supposed to become enlightened.
You can't have might makes right if the cattle become too well educated.
