The Overview
12 Israelis Die; Sheik Threatens to Bomb Tel Aviv
By RICHARD A. OPPEL Jr. and STEVEN ERLANGER
MAALOT-TARSHIHA,
Israel, Aug. 3 =E2=80=94 The Lebanese militia Hezbollah killed 12 Israelis
=E2=80=94 8 civilians and 4 soldiers =E2=80=94 on Thursday, making it Israe=
l=E2=80=99s
deadliest day in more than three weeks of conflict.
As Israeli troops tried to create a narrow buffer zone inside Lebanon
and bombed southern Beirut, Hezbollah=E2=80=99s leader, Sheik Hassan
Nasrallah, warned that he would send his long-range missiles into Tel
Aviv if the airstrikes continued.
=E2=80=9CIf you bomb our capital Beirut, we will bomb the capital of your
usurping entity,=E2=80=9D he said on Lebanese television. =E2=80=9CWe will =
bomb Tel
Aviv.=E2=80=9D But he also offered to halt Hezbollah=E2=80=99s missile barr=
age into
Israel if it stopped bombing Lebanon.
The Israeli defense minister, Amir Peretz, told the army to begin
preparing to push to the Litani River, some 15 miles north of the
border, according to the newspaper Haaretz, a move that could mean a
further call-up of military reservists. That would expand the security
zone Israel is trying to create. But it is not clear whether he will
receive government approval to do so.
Hezbollah launched more than 100 rockets on northern Israel in less
than an hour, with most of the damage on the western edge, in Maalot,
its associated Arab Israeli village of Tarshiha and the Israeli town of
Acre.
Five Israelis, including a man and his daughter, were killed in Acre
and another three, young Arab Israeli men, were killed when a rocket
exploded in Tarshiha. Thirteen people were seriously wounded. Lebanese
security officials said an Israeli missile killed a family of three in
the border village of Taibe.
In Gaza, Israeli forces killed five Palestinian militants and three
civilians, including a 12-year-old boy in fighting on the edges of the
southern town of Rafah as Israeli troops searched for tunnels to Egypt.
Israeli airplanes struck again at Hezbollah strongholds in southern
Beirut, in the Bekaa Valley and in Nabatiye, while four Israeli
soldiers were killed and four wounded in intermittently fierce
fighting. Three were hit by an antitank missile fired by Hezbollah
fighters near the southern village of Rajmin, and one was killed by an
antitank missile in Taibe, the Israeli military said. The Israelis said
they moved to take over new positions along the border and now control
some 20 villages.
The Israelis are trying to create a new defensive line about four to
five miles north of the border, recreating a security zone Israel
intends to occupy until a multinational force can take its place. The
zone is similar to that held by Israel in an occupation that ended in
2000. The government is debating whether to extend that zone north to
the Litani River.
Maj. Zvika Golan, a spokesman for the northern command, said the zone
would be expanded. =E2=80=9CWe are looking to clear 15 kilometers into
Lebanon within the next few days,=E2=80=9D he said. =E2=80=9CWe=E2=80=99re =
going to need
more brigades, probably two more, and that will depend on government
authorization.=E2=80=9D
Adding two brigades could bring the number of Israeli soldiers in
Lebanon to more than 12,000.
But Israeli troops have run into stiff resistance from Hezbollah
fighters. One Israeli military official, who was not authorized to
speak publicly, said that it had taught Israeli forces a =E2=80=9Clesson=E2=
=80=9D
about the resolve, skill and discipline of the guerrillas.
Prime Minister Fouad Siniora of Lebanon said in a televised speech to
an emergency meeting of the Organization of the Islamic Conference,
meeting in Malaysia, that 900 people had been killed, 3,000 wounded,
and more than a million, a quarter of Lebanon=E2=80=99s population,
displaced.
Mr. Siniora=E2=80=99s figures for deaths, like the Lebanese Health
Ministry=E2=80=99s, appear to include those who are missing, and not just t=
he
548 confirmed deaths, according to The Associated Press. The United
Nations estimated last week that 500,000 Lebanese had been displaced.
At the United Nations, France and the United States stepped up
negotiations on the text of a Security Council resolution calling for
an end to hostilities and establishing a path for a political
settlement. Diplomats said the talks centered on two issues, which
would take some time to resolve.
One, according to Jean-Marc de la Sabli=C3=A8re, the French ambassador, was
how to characterize the halt in fighting. A French-drafted resolution
calls for =E2=80=9Can immediate cessation of hostilities=E2=80=9D while the
Americans are insisting on a broader measure.
The other is the nature of the force in southern Lebanon once a truce
begins. The French resolution suggests that it could be made up of the
existing United Nations force and the Lebanese Army. The Americans
favor Israel=E2=80=99s proposal to leave its own military there, with some
restrictions on its power to conduct offensive operations but the right
to respond if attacked.
Under this plan, Israeli troops would leave only when a new
international force arrives. The international force would be
authorized by a subsequent resolution that would also create a buffer
zone in southern Lebanon, set up a way to disarm the Hezbollah militia,
establish the borders of Lebanon and extend the Lebanese Army=E2=80=99s
authority throughout the south.
One difficulty will be to persuade Hezbollah to accept any United
Nations resolution. Its chief spokesman, Hussein Rahal, said Hezbollah
would not agree to a cease-fire until all Israeli troops left Lebanon,
a condition unacceptable to Israel.
=E2=80=9CDeclaring a cease-fire is not the concern of the people of Lebanon
as long as there is one Israeli soldier on Lebanese soil,=E2=80=9D he told =
Al
Jazeera television.
Israeli aircraft dropped leaflets over parts of southern Beirut on
Thursday warning residents to leave immediately, signaling attacks on
the battered southern suburbs.
=E2=80=9CDo it!=E2=80=9D the leaflet warned.
In a television appearance, Sheik Nasrallah spoke in a measured tone,
occasionally peering at notes before him, flanked by a Lebanese flag on
one side and a signature yellow Hezbollah flag on the other.
=E2=80=9CYou are victims, like the Lebanese and Palestinian people, of a
personality complex in your Prime Minister Olmert,=E2=80=9D he said,
addressing the Israeli public directly. =E2=80=9CThe only choice before you
is to stop your aggression and turn to negotiations to end this
folly,=E2=80=9D he said.
=E2=80=9CWhatever you do,=E2=80=9D he said to Israelis, =E2=80=9Ceven if yo=
u pass the
Litani and reach Beirut, you will never achieve your goals.=E2=80=9D
Lebanese listened intently to the speech, which lasted more than 30
minutes. In Dhur Shueir, many were huddled in cafes, listening quietly.
Sheik Nasrallah also taunted Arab leaders, calling on them to =E2=80=9Cbe m=
en
for just one day=E2=80=9D and work for an end to hostilities.
And he accused the United States of complicity in Israel=E2=80=99s attacks,
saying, =E2=80=9Cthe blood of children and women and civilians smear the
faces of Bush, Condoleezza Rice, Cheney and Rumsfeld. This is the U.S.
administration, which is supposed to be the friend of Lebanon and which
wanted to make Lebanon an exemplary democratic country.=E2=80=9D
The eight Israeli civilian fatalities represented the highest number of
Israeli dead in a rocket attack since eight people were killed in the
port city of Haifa on July 16.
The barrage of Hezbollah rockets =E2=80=94 120 for the day =E2=80=94 displa=
yed the
continued ability of the militia to keep northern Israel paralyzed. The
rockets caused cars to screech to a halt as motorists ran for cover in
ditches at the sound of explosions. Smoke rose over Maalot-Tarshiha and
a nearby forest.
Tarshiha is a village of 4,000 Israeli Arabs, both Muslim and
Christian, legally attached to the Jewish city of Maalot, which
contains roughly 20,000 people, half of them immigrants from the former
Soviet Union. The three young men, Muslim Arabs, were killed when a
rocket struck next to the rock where they had taken cover.
=E2=80=9CThey had just parked to go to work,=E2=80=9D said Capt. Gabby Elya=
hu of
the Israeli border police, as he stood near the foot-deep crater left
by the rocket. =E2=80=9CThey left their car and went to go hide behind the
rock, and they were killed.=E2=80=9D
In Milya, a Christian Arab village nearby, at least 10 people suffered
slight wounds when rockets fell Thursday afternoon, said the mayor,
Fathi Assaf.
In Acre, five people died as they went out from a shelter to look
around after an initial wave of rockets. The dead included Shimon
Zaribi, 44, and Mazal, his 16-year-old daughter. One body lay on the
front lawn by a small stone fence topped with a white-picket extension,
covered with a blanket.
=E2=80=9CPeople have been holed up in shelters,=E2=80=9D said Mayor Shimon =
Lancry
of Acre to Israeli television. =E2=80=9CIt=E2=80=99s difficult, but people
understand that soldiers are still fighting in Lebanon, and we will get
through this period.=E2=80=9D
The area of southern Beirut that Israel attacked is the center of
Hezbollah=E2=80=99s presence in the city. Much of the area is deserted, a
ruin of crushed buildings and burned-out cars and trucks. Some of the
rubble was still smoking at midday. Most of the residents have fled,
leaving only small knots of men =E2=80=94 Hezbollah loyalists in casual
clothes =E2=80=94 clustered on street corners.
The Israeli Army also released the conclusions of its inquiry into the
bombing on Sunday in Qana that resulted in the deaths of 29 civilians
sheltering in a basement. The Israelis, in a brief announcement, said
that more than 150 rockets had been launched since July 12 =E2=80=9Cfrom
within the village of Qana itself and the immediate surrounding area=E2=80=
=9D
and repeated that =E2=80=9Cthe residents of Qana and the villages surroundi=
ng
it were warned several times, through various media, to evacuate.=E2=80=9D
The report did not assert that rockets had been launched before the
bombing.
The report said that the army did not know there were civilians in the
building. =E2=80=9CHad the information indicated that civilians were present
in the building, the attack would not have been carried out.=E2=80=9D The
army said it regretted the loss of life.

Give it a few more days and there won't be any hezbolla left to
negotiate with. The hezbolla wanted scorched earth and extermination,
now they face their own extinction. The hunters become the hunted.

There is no piece solution with Hezbollah sadists.Israel must fight and
Israel's fighting. Really fighting. Finally. Now the crucial thing is not
to stop. Hezbollah must be left in a havoc and mess, its
terrorists slain and its dreams of glory smashed. This conflict is not
just about Hezbollah and Israel. At stake is the entire western
civilization. Hezbollah and Hams snake pits in Gaza and Lebanon must be
destroyed unconditionally. If we appease or ignore Islamic fascists , they
will continue to menace everything we hold dear. Sooner or later, they will
sink us in new waves of 9/11s --no matter how moral we are or how much
restraint we demonstrate to their provocations. Europe already knows the
taste of jihad, but it cowardly denies the menace of Islamic fascism which
final goal is destruction of the West and establishing a new world
Caliphate.
It is time to get really serious about this threat and stop pussyfooting
around pretending it doesn't exist . Go Israel, break the spine of the
terrorist Hydra, ***** "world's opinion", there is no disproportionate force
in existence, when fighting for survival against enemies who have vowed to
wipe you and your country from the map. If you falter and give in to the
pressure of the corrupt UN and hypocrisy of the "world's community" , your
hesitation will punish all of us later. There is no way back. Hamas and
Hesbollah must be destroyd.

MAALOT-TARSHIHA,
Israel, Aug. 3 - The Lebanese militia Hezbollah killed 12 Israelis
- 8 civilians and 4 soldiers - on Thursday, making it Israel's
deadliest day in more than three weeks of conflict.
As Israeli troops tried to create a narrow buffer zone inside Lebanon
and bombed southern Beirut, Hezbollah's leader, Sheik Hassan

This is a big test, I think. If Hezbollah makes a very specific threat
like this and cannot fulfill it, it will be very demoralizing in the
Arab world and prove to the Israelis that he's backed into a small
corner. Let's see what happens next.
