Qatar accuses some Arab states of backing Israel
(08.01.06, 03:24)
Qatar's Foreign Minister Sheikh al-Thani tells Al Jazeera television he is surprised at 'Arab agreement for Israel to end Hizbullah presence'; declines to specify which countries he refers to

Qatar's foreign minister on Monday accused some Arab states of supporting the Israeli offensive on Lebanon to dismantle Hezbollah.

Speaking to Al Jazeera television, Qatar's Foreign Minister Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim bin Jabr al-Thani, whose country is a major US ally and has low-level ties with Israel, declined to name any country.

Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia have criticized Hezbollah for sparking the fighting by capturing two Israeli soldiers earlier this month to exchange for Arab prisoners in Israeli jails.

But facing outrage and protest at home against Israel's conduct, they have since taken a tougher stance, warning Washington that Israeli militarism could lead to a wider conflict in the region.

even the Arab Dictatorships cannot ignore (for too long) the outrage of their populations.

I think most of the Arab states realize that Hezbollah overreached on this one. Their continuing Katyusha rocket attacks, plus the spark of the kidnapping of the Israeli troops are the causes of the Israeli reprisals. Most of the Arab world can see that, even Hezbollah has admitted it. They made a mistake, pushed the wrong buttons and got a war. You can only shoot so many people before the people being shot at retaliate.

A prior UN resolution supports the disarming of Hezbollah.

We can see how much good that did.

Maybe we need to pass another one that puts the force of NATO behind it, so that Hezbollah can be literally dismantled and disarmed, and its non-Lebanese members deported by parachute back to Iran and Syria.

My 2 cents:

The majority of their populations can't do a damn thing about it. Nor can those nations themselves. Not without fucking themselves terribly.

Option 1: Oil embargo - well, that hurts your own pocketbook and balance of payments, as it's the primary source of income for many of those nations - and that in and of itself would bring down the government - can't do that.

Option 2: Attack Israel and the US. Yeah, right. And end up in a cell eating Cool Ranch Doritos like someone else we know.

Option 3: Let Syria and Iran fuck themselves silly supporting Hezbollah, which will first get anally probed by Israel, and then sat on by a NATO occupying force.

Yet they and you continue to ignore the countries that are in violation of the UN resolution to disarm Hezbollah. You constantly critisize the US for vetoing UN resolutions against Isreal. Why not spew the same vitriol against those countries supporting Hezbollah criminal actions?

Why would that be?

No one is going to put troops to that.

You constantly critisize the US for vetoing UN resolutions..I do critisize the US gov attitude at the UN..

and I do not see any reason to stop.

having said that.. I GTG.. work to do..
later All..

Plenty of nations want to organize the logistics and run the logistics base in Cyprus for such an operation...

Nice way to selectively respond. As usual.

Why aren't you calling for UN sanctions against Syria or Iran for sending weapons to Hezbollah against a UN resolution? Why aren't you condeming the countries supporting Hezbollah's continued use of weapons against Isreali civilian centers and for multiple incursions into Isreal?

The hypocrisy is overwhelming.

they win

Yeah, tucked safely away in Cyprus.

No one wants to put their troops into Lebanon, especially given the main proponents of this idea aren't going to have their troops there.

Any scenerio in which US Troops end up in Lebenon which doesn't include previously having killed everything larger than a house cat is a political impossiblity.

Any scenerio which doesn't include an armed professional force more than capable of kicking the shit out of Hezbollah, whatever the human toll to the Lebanese, is totally unable to secure any measure of peace and security in the region.

Thus we continue on the path left to us. War. We'd probably see less war and more responsible government if the UN let countries keep conquered lands aquired in certain kinds of cases.

Not much they can do about it. So long as Hezz hides IN CIVILIAN CENTERS, the IDF will root them out. They try to hit them from the air whenever they can, but only real way to deal with Hezz is to hunt them down.

Hezzbollah-Intentionally aims at civilians
Israel-Tries to avoid them when going for Hezz, but will NOT let the presence of Civies deter them from striking HEZZ.

OD, here you go. This one's for you.

You see them as the evil side as they are Jews. Your past posts have proved that one.

But, regardless of that fact, ISrael has killed more civilians because Hezbollah terrorists surround themselves with civilians. It is no coincidence that the rockets are being launched from the middle of the most densely populated areas in Southern Lebanon.

ANd on the original post about "Treason." OD needs to get a clue. Does he realize that there are hundreds of Palestinians who have been EXECUTED by fellow Palestinians for "cooperating with the Jews." (supporting Israel's right to exist.) I jsut find it funny that OD sees it as treason too. He and the terrorists have quite a lot in common.

Israel has killed more civilians for several reasons.

1.) The overwhelming force of the Israeli military. Face facts, Hezbollah is far weaker than Israel, and no matter what they do, fewer people will be killed.

2.) Hezbollah, and other terrorists groups, amazing ability to situate themselves in the midst of the populace. As the Fourth Geneva Convention clearly states, the fault for the deaths of civilians lies squarely on the shoulders of the people who are hiding amongst them.

3.) It's easy to cover up dead Hezbollah fighters and claim they are civilians. They often don't wear uniforms, and if killed, just remove the AK and bits and pieces of ruined Katyusha, and, voila! A civilian!
