    Maybe, but i think we've still got a little bit of an overactive persecution complex going on here.

    Anyhow, yeah, we're stuck there for awhile, but once we're out, I think they'll focus more on killing each other (and israel) than us.

    i think, imho, that they have equal hatred for israel and the US. we'll always be in their crosshairs. the object is to open their eyes to the fact that we are an opponant that cannot be beat.

    You mean you do, right doctor? You were the one who blew up... In fact, you are usually the one that blows up... And your the one bringing up mental health issues... Hmmm....
    There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

    We've heard about the few Israeli soldiers that were kidnapped. How many Lebanese have been "arrested"/"kidnapped" by the Israelis over the last couple years?

    Okay, it's been noted(somewhere, I don't know where and I'm not looking it up) that hundreds of nuclear warheads(removed from missles) are still not accounted for in Russia. Does anyone really know how many?? So let's say there were only 75 missing, okay? Are any of you naive enough to believe that some Muslim nation(namely Iran) out there hasn't already bought themselves a couple two or three from some corrupt Russian official??? Why do you think they were observing the North Korean missle launches, just recently??? They need a delivery system!!!!!

    So just where are all those missing warheads, huh???

    I'm not too sure that this is a conspiracy theory or not. All I know, is I don't want to take any chances. Those **** are crazy enough to actually use one and once they have a reliable delivery system, they will.

    Hopefully it is!!

    I'll err on the side of caution.

    In Lebanon? probably none.

    In Israel? probably lots. If the Israeli soldiers were doing a clandestine mission in lebanon and got captured, then I'd see the point. but Hezbollah crossed the border into Israel and kidnapped them. then there gonna cry about the raining of bombs?

    hopefully this war doesn't go against the lebonese so much as for the hezbollah.

    Is there a reason you couldn't have the discussion without turning it into swearing and name calling? That's why you're childish, and it's the first sign of someone who is frustrated because they're losing the argument.

    If you can't continue the discussion without being a dick then just put a sock in it. Everyone after your little childish rant had the same thing running through their mind that I posted....you blame America.

    Its not so black and white. I don't know if Israel is "wrong", but I do wonder how righteous they really are. Most of the Lebanese killed so far have been civilians. (and of course Israeli civilians are getting killed over this too)

    Its hard to form an opinion from this far away. I like to ask questions.

    At the first hint of anyone challenging your thinking you accuse them of anti-americanism. If I called you a commie, I'd expect a big "**** you" coming back my way, and, by the way, you haven't responded to a single one of the points I've brought up. And posting posting a picture of a baby crying and then calling me childish? Real mature.

    that's all i was doing for you. asking your opinion.

    on another note, i'll bet, just like our reporters, arab television still breathes foul air into their people by way of fictitious reporting on their losing battles in an attempt to infuriate the islamic world to rally against us. sick of that ****. they breed hate.

    Thanks for confirming my suspicions.

    You did blame America for the existence of Al-Qaeda. If America is to blame for Al-Qaeda existing, you're in turn justifying their actions as a result of our own involvement in their affairs. We brought this on ourselves, so to speak.

    You want us to sit here, do nothing, and believe there will be no more 9/11 re-enactments, right? Isn't that your view? If it's not, explain yourself rather than going off calling me every name in the book. Make me look like a dumbass with knowledge rather than name calling.

    If you want to continue the discussion at that end I would be glad to respond to your points. If not, I'm ignoring it from here on out.
