THE NUMBERS DON'T LIE

ISRAEL / LEBANON /HEZBOLLAH CASUALTIES AS OF 03AUG05

Lebanon CIVILIANS 477-828 dead, 2,145-3,200 wounded MILITARY 27 dead,70 wounded

Israel CIVILIANS 28 dead, 418 wounded MILITARY 40 dead, 136 wounded

Hezbollah 43 dead confirmed by Hezbollah


O.K. maybe I'm missing something here. I don't see how its Hezbollah that likes to kill civilians. Look at the numbers. Not only is Israel killing an exponentially higher number of civilians, they also are killing a higher ratio of civilians to combatants than Hezbollah. What makes Israel more prone in my mind to kill civilians is the simple fact that they are using precision weapons and are much better trained at their use. Thus Israel has much more control over where its ammunition lands. Hezbollah is doing a much better job at avoiding civilian casualties than Israel with less training and cheap, obsolete, second hand weapons.
What makes Hezbollah terrorists again? Because they ruthlessly target civilians? But this mass slaughter by Israel followed an attack on Israeli soldiers. Didn't it? Even in their most infamous attack, it was occupying U.S. Marines, not civilians that they killed. I guess if you fight back against the U.S. you are a terrorist. Are they terrorists because they fight back for self determination when invaded and occupied? Is Hezbollah terrorist because it is Muslim? Our masters told us that Sunnis and Shiites are fighting to the death (despite praying together in Mecca for centuries), so how is Sunni AlQueda linked to Shiite Hezbollah again? I thought we were invading the Middle East to bring democracy? Hmm last I checked, Hezbollah was fairly and democratically elected. That's more than we can say about the Bush Administration. I guess as far as our masters see it, if you're Muslim or dark skinned, you can't do anything right except walk into a gas chamber. Why is Israel attacking Beirut and Baalbeck? An obsolete kaytusha rocket launcher in neither of those cities is capable of reaching Israel. They can't drive any launchers down to the border (or ambulances, food, water, medicine, baby formula, etc. anywhere) either because the roads have been destroyed. Israel, no one's life is more valuable or cheaper than any other.
One more thing. I also want the fascists in this country to show me how Hezbollah is using "human shields". Show me footage of a rocket launcher draped with pregnant women and small kids or firing from the roof of a hospital or apartment building. How exactly does Hezbollah get a rocket launcher up there without big helicopters anyway? Show me a Hezbollah Soldier with kids strapped to his stomach and back, otherwise I'm going to have to continue believing you are just brainwashed Neo Nazis.

This report gives insight into the lies being presented by the U.S. and Israeli propaganda ministries about the Israeli-Palestinisn conflict. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7828123714384920696&pr=goog-sl
