Funny, I had heard it was Hamas that had kidnapped 2 Israeli soldiers who were in Gaza ( a territory that was handed back to palestine) and Israel then started to bomb Lebanon to pieces to prevent Hamas from handing them to Hezbollah who would then send them to Syria. ------------------ You've confused the news reports. Hamas kidnapped Israeli soldiers which started the actions against Gaza and Hamas. A few days later Hezbollah also kidnapped one Israeli soldier which started the actions against Hezbollah and Lebanon. 1000 civilian casualties and 4 billion dollars in infrastructure damage for one soldier? The poor kid doesn't know how much he is worth. I was wondering whether there wouldn't be any connection with the current carnage and the fact that the Syrian army just happened to leave the Lebanon a few months ago amid accusations of being responsible for assassinating the Lebanese prime minister. Would Israel have attacked the Lebanon while the Syrian army was still there? No. What a coincidence. T. Syria kept the Hezbollah in check. It's the Bushbollah you have to watch out for. |

That's quite a retaliation for a couple of kidnappings. But I've already pointed out how Israel always overreacts. They crossed into Israel, kidnapped 2 and killed 8 soldiers. What do you think the reaction of Syria would be if Israel did this? What was the reaction of the world to the killing of 4 UN observers? Personally I would have cheered if the UN effectively retaliated. A fuel and weapons embargo against Israel would be a good start. But only until the "Final Solution" can be achieved ? jay Sat Aug 12, 2006 T. |

Forget about bringing any liquid or semi-liquid substance onboard a plane again, including toothpaste. I wonder if the airlines are smart enough to stock more water and food to make up for passengers not being able to bring their own. Not to mention that fact that it must be free, because passengers no longer have an option to bring their own. One option that seems to be completely off the table is that the airlines would get their act together with regard to baggage handling, and take it out of the domain of gorillas and thieves. B; |

What was the point of having the UN post there? It doesn't seem like it served any peacekeeping purpose. |
