US arms flight diverted from Scotland after cabinet protest
Mon Jul 31, 7:12 PM ET

LONDON (AFP) - Two US cargo planes believed to be carrying bombs bound for Israel were kept from stopping over in Scotland because of protests in the British cabinet, the BBC said.

According to the BBC, the Scottish Secretary Douglas Alexander told Foreign Secretary Margaret Beckett in a telephone conversation that he did not want a political fall-out from the cargo planes going through Scotland.
...
A reporter for the broadcaster also said unidentified sources suggested that at least six planes carrying material for the Israeli war effort went through Britain over the weekend.

The weapons from the US were already contracted for, built, and paid for. They aren't being given free of charge, nor are they being given under unusual circumstances.

It's called "just in time" delivery. A modern industrial concept that might go over your head.

Meanwhile, Hezbollah doesn't have to pay a penny for its weapons.

Of course, it's going to be really hard to deliver crates of rockets to Southern Lebanon right now, considering that no air or sea traffic is really going in or out, and the IAF is bombing every vehicle on the road to Damascus.

The only ones who are really supplying Hezbollah is Syria and Iran. I really am getting tired of this type of debate. They are doing it so it is ok for others to arm the otherside dispite the fact that the otherside is a terror organization.

Yeah. I forgot Clinton looked into his crystal ball, saw all this coming, and got permission from Major to use our airports in 10 years' time.

Even Bush has admitted (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/glasgow_and_west/5226910.stm) that he should have asked permission to use our bases.

US President George W Bush has apologised to Tony Blair over the previous use of Prestwick Airport to refuel planes carrying bombs to Israel.

The prime minister's spokesman said Mr Bush gave a "one-line" apology for the fact proper procedures had not been followed.

Some air traffic controllers at Prestwick, near Glasgow, have raised concerns about handling flights carrying bombs.

So let me put the analogy on its head. Israel is constently being attacked by rockets of various sizes with various distances. Say a rocket is fired from Beirut and hits Haifa? What do you do? you bomb the area. You do have to remember that Hezbollah's HQ was in downtown Beirut. Weapons were getting smuggled in through ports and the airport. How do you put a stop to that? You bomb the ports and the airport. Then what do you do? You attack known rocket launch sites. It is here that civilian casualties will skyrocket because their launch sites are in and among civilians. Where they store rockets are in and around civilians so when you bomb those sites, there will be more civilian casualties.

So is the response proportionate or not? I am going to leave that one up to God to decide.

No, he's saying theirs is no longer a proportional response.

Say I squirt you with a water gun repeatedly, you don't swing a sledgehammer for me, do you?


Do you?! :eek: :D


Hmmm...so i guess a proportional response by Israel would be to pack tiny ball bearings into shitty rockets with no guidance system and shoot them randomly in the direction of Lebanon, hitting population centers and maiming civilians with the metal ball bearings, not eliminating at all the threat of the rockets or the militia?

You don't use a damn proportional response when you wish to defeat your enemy. yes, Israel wishes to defeat it's enemy, Hizballah, not let them stick around to launch attacks on Israel for all eternity, and to do so they are going to use as much disproportionate force that it can until Hizballah is beaten into submission and unable to harm or injure Israeli citizens.

This war was forced upon Israel by Hizballah after it launched a cross border raid, kidnapping two soldiers and killing eight. This was not the first attack on Israel by Hizballah, it was the tip of the iceberg. Israel was no longer willing to let a terrorist militia be housed by its next door neighbor with a couple thousand rockets pointed in the directions of her population centers.

No Sir/Ma'am, I did not ignore what you wrote. I saw what you wrote but now you are completely dodging my question and in a debate, he who dodges a question, loses the debate.

So if somebody blindly fired a rifle into your house from a neighbors house repetedly, some times killing family members, your responce would be? Ideally maybe you call the police ...but there are no police for this you would do what? Me, Id gather all my armed able bodied family members and go over and clean that house out and if it happened again I'd burn it to the ground. Most people would do likewise.

Sure, if you want to equate an 'enlightened' democracy with a listed terrorist group. Personally, I wouldn't.

Sooo... they responded by killing 10 times as many Lebanese civilians as Hezb'allah has killed Israeli civilians? That sounds like a workable policy alright.

Exactly. Proportionality is the major reason people are voicing their disquiet.
You only fight a war with proportionality if you want to lose. Have you ever heard of the Weinberger and Powell Doctrines? The first Gulf War proved that they work. That is how you fight a war. Hezbollah declared WAR on Israel so Israel can do whatever it damn well pleaces to Hezbollah.

That wouldn't be a problem had Arafat accepted the 2000 deal. He also would've gotten East Jerusalem.

You also fail to mention the pullout of Gaza along with the pullout of the West Bank, which was planned until Hamas was elected. It isn't Israel's fault that htey don't have a peace partner. It is the Palestinian's fault.

No, you're been spouting stuff like this for as long as I can remember. (I'm not as new as my join date says.)

Something tells me he hates rich Jews, so he picked the name on purpose.
I know a lot of people claim that critics of Israel are anti-Semitic, but OceanDrive is the only one that I think might actually be anti-Semitic.

its like adding fuel to the middle-east fire.

only the US is doing it..
No, you said yourself that Iranians/Syrians/Saudis/Quatar giving shitloads of Weapons to Hezbollah.

I do agree, however, that all sides should stop providing them with weapons. That would bring the conflict to a halt soon enough.

Then I suggest settling in for the long haul. Israel could start eating babies on live TV and the US would still back them because that's the land of Jesus.

And people say there are no religious wars anymore.
I don't think that the US backs Israel because it's the land of Jesus.

Meh ...why not? It's as good an excuse as any.
But, no government goes to war and throws away loads of money anymore because of religion. Why be motivated by that when there are many more rational, and profitable reasons?

just a hint of Jew hating here...:rolleyes:

There wouldn't be a fight because the Jews would be pushed into the sea. If you disarm the Arabs, there will be peace. Disarm the Jews, there will be a Holocaust.

The Hezbollah can't arm themselves because of 1559. The Lebanese army can be armed, but not Hezbollah.

I never said only the Jew can have weapons. I said TERRORISTS can't have weapons.

You're right, it would be genocide as Hezbollah and Hamas follow thier mandates of destroying Isreal and following the advice of their leaders by killing every Jew they could.

Do you deny that? Of course you do.

You believe Hezbollah had a perfectly legitimate right to cross over into Isreal and take prisoners to use in violation of international law. You believe it is perfectly acceptable for countries to supply a non-recognized militia, that the UN has called for to be disarmed , which regularly uses these weapons directly against Isreali civilians.

But when the IDF fights back, well, that's bad. It's bad that Isreal refuses to release prisoners that have killed dozens of people and organize more murders. It's bad when Isreal refuses to give back territory that has been used as staging points for attacks and invasions multiple times.

But wait, it's been a few days. Time for you to take up the same tired arguements that have been debunked over and over.
