plus the whole fake dead children for the media trick they pull every time...get some kids smear them in blood tell them to lie still on the street and get the camera crew to get the world to cry about the innocent children
My friend, it makes me sad to read such words. It makes me sad to see that violence is prevailing these days, and it is being met with more violence only to make it stronger.
Again, "No generalization is wholly true, not even this one"... you are saying that the pictures of dead children are fake. I don't know how you know this, or if you have personally seen their pictures being taken while they were actually alive. But I recall many live videos of children being shot dead while they were hiding with their parents. And as for the pictures coming from my country, I actually wish you were right about the children not really being dead, because unfortunately you are wrong, because I have seen them with my own eyes, because the fake pictures you are talking about are still in my mind as I write.
In a previous post, I posted a link to websites showing such pictures. Some of you said that others do not show such pictures in respect to the dead. We all respect the dead I assure you. But I believe that Israel does not show such things because it does not want to expose itself, does not want to shock its people by showing them that it is suffering such atrocities even if it is one of the strongest countries in the world. Same as the United States in Iraq, we rarely saw pictures of dead soldiers during the war.
Anyways this is not my point, Israel DOES NOT deserve to suffer because it has suffered for much too long, just like we have. But why do people here show such pictures? You may ask...well because us, the Lebanese citizens, the innocent dying ones, are WEAK, and we admit it. We are weak in front of such great Israeli military power, just as the Palestinian innocent citizens are weak...I am not talking about those amongst us who bear arms, but those who hide and flee, those who have seen enough blood, those whose parents, relatives and friends have died. These pictures are exposed because it is the only weapon we have as innocent unarmed people, because there is no balance of power, and because we do not want a war but we want all of this to stop. No more casualties, no more pain..for both the Lebanese, and the Israeli people.

now to nassrallah...he claims openly he has the right to abduct israeli soldiers on israeli soil and demand a 1000 of their people to be released from our prisons.people which have blood on their hands...and the arab people still blame israel for the war in lebanon
And it also makes me sad, that we are still pointing fingers, and that there is no more talk of peace or ceasefire. Sometimes I feel that I am in a dream, a bad dream and that at any moment I am going to wake up from it, and things will be back to normal.
I am not saying Hezbollah is not to blame, I am not saying Israel is guilt free. But the solution is NEVER in violence, and unfortunately with more than two milleniums of History filled with lessons to learn from, lessons that taught us that blood, violence and hatred are NOT the answer and they will never be.
I will never be afraid to say, and repeat that I want and hope for peace with the people of Israel, that I want them to come and see my beautifull country just as I want them to welcome me in theirs.
I believe just as many of you have said before me, that we should be talking about ways to solve this, rather than to point the blame and to justify the blood and the killings on both sides. I know that in the end violence, war, hatred cannot prevail, but we should not sit around and be sucked in to such matters...we should work against them.
Hope dies last.
And paradoxile, I hope you take no offense from any of this, I only quoted you because I felt what you said was related to what I wanted to say. I know you are as disconcerted of all of this as we all are.
be safe.
