    Actually they are angry at the seemingly indiscriminate killing of civilians, not defending themselves as you would like to believe. I would call you derogatory names but you seem to be around 12 or 13 years old so I will refrain. Go to bed young man, you have chores in the morning.

    This from someone who on another thread stated that "Well, the corrupt UN is anti-semetic..."

    How do you expect anyone to take you seriously fando y lis? You should do yourself a favour mate and go back to school. No offence intended.

    By the way, 'anti-Semitic' isn't spelt 'anti-semetic'.

    it never fails to amaze me how these so called peace loving leftist protesters dont seem at all to mind indiscriminant killing of civillians when those civilians are israeli
    israel has a right and a responsibility to deffend her self, to hell with the leftists.

    It really does help to discuss things with a level head and a touch of humor, otherwise you're just gonna get eaten up inside and feel bad about yourself eventually. Also...it's harder to do, and you have to think more ;)

    If you read what Shiraz has posted on here it seems that Israelis are also protesting their government's actions in Lebanon. So it seems that it's not only the leftist who have a problem with Israel bombing civilians targets in Lebanon.

    That's a slightly broad sweeping statement isn't it? So you say that all protesters of the Israeli government, and the Israeli military's crimes don't mind when Israeli civilians are killed? People like you are very good at making broad sweeping statements which have no basis in reality and with no reference to the facts. I personally believe that neither Israeli's or Palestinians should be getting killed as a consequence of the crimes of the Israeli and U.S governments, who are guilty of perpetuating this situation in defiance of world opinion, and in breach of international law. All right thinking Israeli's who care about the security and the future of their country should also be protesting against the actions of their government. Plenty of them are but we hardly ever hear about this in the Western media.

    I'm sure there are also plenty of Israeli's who are also protesting the crimes of their government and military, such as the fact that the Israeli government is currently in breach of over 60 U.N resolutions.

    Here's an example: An essay on the conflict by a Rabbi:

    They're brainwashed?!? How does reasonable equate brainwashed? Honestly, why do people have such unconditional support for every move Israel makes? It reeks of racism.

    I keep hearing about Israel's right to self defense, what about Lebanon's rights. Last I checked Hizbollah was a terrorist organization supported bt Syria and Iran, not Lebanon. While I support Israel's right to exist and self defense I also support the same right for Lebanon and it's citizens. Do the innocent Lebanese citizens & the Lebanese government who had no hand in Hizbollah's actions not count? Do they not deserve the same rights afforded to Israel?

    I'm also getting a little sick and tired of this "leftist" bullshit. Is protesting the killing of innocent civilians wrong? Are some of you so consumed by hatred that it doesn't matter who gets killed as long as it's us and our friends doing the killing it's all all OK.

    MONTREAL: TORONTO -- About 1,000 members of Montreal's Lebanese community protested yesterday against the Harper government's stand on the Middle East conflict, marching in the city's downtown, past the Israeli consulate to a federal government building....

    Yes. This is clearly the case.

    yeah, I don't get the bombing of Beiruit because of hezbollah rockets in the south either. I completly understand defending the northern border and snuffing out the continued northern bombardment of Israel from hizbollah who will not be satisfied until they kill every jew in Israel I think. I get that many civilians who die are simply used by these guys as shields. But dropping leaflets that say...we're gonna bomb the shit out of this city, get the hell out, for people in the north who may be just trying to live and work and get along is absolutely fucking ridiculous. That's just going to piss off the people of Lebanon, not do anything to stop rockets coming into Hefia. The idea that either side is without guilt is null and void.

    As usual, somewhere near the middle.

    What would happen if an Israeli rocket strike resulted in the death of an American in Beirut?

    Israel would apologize and then continue bombing Beirut with America's full support.
