Israel’s wanton bombing of Lebanese civilians is an unequivocal war crime .
States are obliged to protect Lebanon, militarily if necessary, lest international law become a travesty.
If the Security Council won’t act, the General Assembly can and must.
Over 250 Lebanese civilians dead within a week, all murdered by the State of Israel. If the elected leaders of the states we, the people, compose do nothing about this, international society is nothing but illusion - camouflage and safety (…)

Dear United for Peace & Justice,
You have waged lame campaigns asking for action and money in the past, but this one absolutely takes the cake.
Once upon a time I thought you were only misguided and merely just out of your Cotton Pickin’ Mind. Now it’s beyond transparent that your obvious ineffectiveness indicates the existence of an organization that carefully selects its projects and campaigns as totally futile and lame - on (…) -

Most Lebanese Now Know Who Their Real Tormentor Is Scenes from Beirut on the Eve of the Invasion By GEORGE BISHARAT
Eleven days ago, I walked through the familiar stone archway, descended steps worn smooth by the feet of others, and re-entered the paradise that is the American University of Beirut. It was my first trip back in 25 years. Here my father and four uncles were all endowed with the movable asset of education — enabling them to later flourish in the United States, (…) -

The End Is Near, but first, this commercial.
There are times when I think that this tired old world has gone on a few years too long. What’s happening in the Middle East is so depressing.

After Israel bombed a U.N. shelter near Khiam, Lebanon, killing four observers, Daniel Ayalon, Israeli ambassador to the United States, had the audacity to tell Wolf Blizter of CNN he expects an apology from U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan for complaining.
Of course, this is nothing new, as the Israelis routinely attack the United Nations and little if anything comes of such murderous crimes (…) -

Bombing in Lebanon, invasion of Gaza, firing of rockets into Haifa and the north of Israel, chaos in Iraq, threats of war with Iran...

www.globalresearch.ca/PrintArticle.php?articleId=2807
The war on Lebanon may well escalate to the point where the US will use nuclear weapons against Iran, in what would be the first use of nuclear weapons in war since Nagasaki. And the world may well blame the Jewish State [1], [2]. Israel’s bombing campaign which is causing immense suffering, is in blatant violation of the Geneva (…)
