Didn't the lebanese gov't learn anything from the death that Israel bestowed upon their populace over the summer? Well evidently some lebanese troops opened fire on IDF troops, who were operating in their own territory, looking for bombs that Hizbullah had planted in northern Israeli towns. Do they(lebanese) want to try and make more suffering? Why would they fire on the Israelis? God people, think things through before you start doing stupid shit.

Good. CNN has been boring lately.

TOOL LYRICS

Vicarious


Eye on the TV
'Cause tragedy thrills me
Whatever flavour
It happens to be like
Killed by the husband
Drowned by the ocean
Shot by his own son
She used the poison in his tea
And kissed him goodbye
That's my kinda story
It's no fun 'til someone dies

Don't look at me like
I am a monster
Frown out your one face
But with the other
Stare like a junkie
Into the tv
Stare like a zombie
While the mother
Holds her child
Watches him die
Hands to the sky crying
Why, oh why?
'Cause i need to watch things die
From a distance

Vicariously i, live while the whole world dies
You all need it too, don't lie

Why can't we just admit it?
Why can't we just admit it?

We won't give pause until the blood is flowing
Neither the brave nor bold
The writers of stories sold
We won't give pause until the blood is flowing

I need to watch things die
From a good safe distance

Vicariously i, live while the whole world dies
You all feel the same so
Why can't we just admit it?

Blood like rain come down
Drawn on grave and ground

Part vampire
Part warrior
Carnivore and voyeur
Stare at the transmitter
Sing to the death rattle

La, la, la, la, la, la, la-lie

Incredulous at best your desire to believe in
Angels in the hearts of men
Pull your head on out
Your head believes it give a listen
Shouldn't have to say it all again
The universe is hostile
So impersonal
Devour to survive, so it is
So it's always been

We all feed on tragedy
It's like bood to a vampire

Vicariously i, live while the whole world dies
Much better you than i

All the countries over there are co-dependent. Can you image if they began getting along? No one would give them aid or time on TV or the time of day. They'd all slip back into the third-rate status they deserve and the rest of us would have some peace and quiet for a while.

I don't think it's likely to come to anything; the reason the war blew up so quickly last time was because Israel and Hezbollah had been looking for an excuse to fight for ages. Israel doesn't want another war in Lebanon and the government wouldn't dare act against public opinion without good reason.

I hope that you are right.

Dead relatives in the 80's? Dead relatives in some raid or other,,dead relatives in the last invasion...dead relatives at the hands of the Israeli sponsored militias, sick of being walked on by the Israelis, embarrassed that Hezbollah resisted and they didn't the last time....That kind of thing...

Yes, it makes perfect sense to open fire on people who could lay waste to your country if they really let go. I'm sure all those dead relatives will be immensely gratified by the arrival of their descendants, too. Continuing violence like this, on either side, Israeli or Arab, is what oppresses those people. And it's been tried for the last 60 years, and it hasn't worked all that well, has it?

Seriously. There have been so many different military tactics and such to try and solve this problem. The only thing they haven't tried is peace.

Hey, just because I believe in God doesn't mean I believe that there is any real rhyme or reason to this world.

The only people who want peace are the goddamned, dirty hippies.

Then there is hope for you yet. Some seem to use religon to impose (in their own minds at least) order on the world. Prophecy, the whore of babylon, yada da yada.....
Or the "It all serves gods plan" shite "what plan?" "Gods Plan" "yes, but what is it?" "it is not for us to ask" "You don't fucking ask then, I will..."

If you expect peace then prepare for war.

Well God's plan doesn't make sense half the time anyways. I've learned to live according to how I feel is right. If I go against what God's plan is...Oh well. That's the free will he granted me. So he can only blame himself for me not living according to "his plan".
