Not sure what your point is. That bad shit and mistakes happen in war? That phosphorus hurts? Um, yeah, but I think most of us already knew that.

You voluntarily advertise for rense.com in your sigline? Now, *that* is pretty amazing! You do know that the vast majority of people who know who he is also know he's an idiot and a bigot? Yep, it's true. Ah well, that's why I fought for the freedoms we have in this country: so Rense and the other idiots of the world can say stupid shit and amuse the rest of us!

I agree that war is wrong. If it can be avoided, it should be. I am not, however, a complete pacifist. If some country decides to start lobbing bombs into America, and talking doesn't dissuade them from doing so, then you have two choices: enjoy watching your friends and family get blown up, or do something about it. That's a sad fact of life, that sometimes two groups cannot come to a peaceful solution (usually because one side refuses to), and then you get war.

For example, in World War II, Hitler didn't just roll over all of Europe, because people fought back against being conquered and having a Nazi German government instituted over their own. Yes, they could have just laid down and let the Germans roll over them, and that would have avoided war. Would that have been better? Maybe if you were white, blonde, blue-eyed, not gay, not Jewish, and didn't care about freedom.

As for calling me an idiot and a bigot, I don't really care. Sticks and stones, blah blah. And I think there are enough posts from me that you can tell I'm not an idiot or a bigot. However, Mr. Rense - he's got a posting history too, and it shows what he is just as mine shows what kind of person I am. rense.com is frequently used as a "source" (I use the term VERY loosely) for neo-Nazis and skinheads and conspiracists. And I do indeed find him amusing, as I do those who use his site as a source for anything other than skinhead recruiting.

it sucks to see those kids burned so bad, and unwillingly hallucinating like that. War and conflict are a part of everyday life in some parts of the world. It is weird that i just woke up from a series of dreams this morning pertaining to the Armageddon. This thread reminds me of how Jesus Christ spoke that before the coming of the end, "There will be wars and rumours of wars between nations and kingdoms (Matt.24, 6-7; Mark 13,7-8; Luke,21,9-10)", "Orthodox Christians will be delivered up, killed and hated by all nations (Matt. 24,9; Mark 13, 9-11; Luke 21,12-15)". If i am not mistaken, Lebanon and Armenia hold a significant percentage of Orthodox Christians. "9) After this Jews will become Orthodox Christians (Romans 11,25-28)", and so forth. True the first half of the 12 signs have come to pass a long time ago, but what you have to remember is that these are events spread out through the life of the world, and thus cover a great span of time. Its the latter of the 12 signs that would be more significant for our time frame.

Good for them. If someone invaded my country i'd be firing rockets too. Hezbulloh was formed to fight the Israeli occupation years ago. So the responsibility of the creation of Hezbulloh should lie on Israels shoulders.

By the way the use of phosphorus weapons is a violation of International Laws

Well somewhere along the lines of 700 killed and scores more injured, and 100's of thousands displaced in both Lebanon and Israel as well as a humantarian crisis. All for 2 soldiers. The majority of Deaths and injuries in both countries have been civilians. If Israel spared civilians from the brunt of the attack my views would very quickly change

Hard to do though when they set up camp/rocket launchers in civilian areas. Hell, they launch over 100 a day now into Israel...what are they suppose to do?

Not to mention, Lebanon was suppose to have Hezbollah disarmed by now. To bad they sat on their hands for so long. Don't get me wrong, civilian deaths are tragic but what would be the alternative? They can't jsut let Hezbollah just cross the border and kill/kidnap their soldiers. The REAL Lebanon army seems to have it's hands tied, the U.N. is worthless.......

I think it's a start. Hezbollah started acting a bit legit by actually participating in elections. If they were to intigrate their people into the Lebanese army I think it would do more for the cause on both sides of the border.

I still don't agree with their basic philosophy but it sure don't hurt to be able to talk to someone at a table instead of across a battle line.

Who in the thread claimed Hezbollah is a by-product of Israel's occupation of southern Lebanon? lol...thats funny. I s'pose Israel went into southern Lebanon in 1982 for what...loks and bagels?

MILITARY APPLICATIONS

White phosphorus munitions are primarily used by the U.S. military to make smoke screens or mark targets as a signaling mechanism, but also as an incendiary weapon, the Pentagon said. It is not considered a chemical weapon under international conventions. It is a colorless or yellowish translucent wax-like substance that smells a bit like garlic. The substance ignites easily in air at temperatures of about 86 degrees F (30 C) and its fire can be difficult to extinguish. It commonly is dispersed by high-explosive munitions.

PENTAGON'S VIEW OF THE WEAPON

The Pentagon says white phosphorus is a conventional munition that is not outlawed or illegal or banned by any convention. It states that it is legal to fire these weapons at enemy fighters "out of military necessity and in accordance with the rules of proportionality." In the November 2004 Marine-led offensive in Falluja that involved fierce urban fighting, the Pentagon acknowledged using white phosphorus weapons against enemy fighters in a what they called a "shake-and-bake technique." Shells containing white phosphorous were fired at insurgents in foxholes or other covered positions to smoke them out and they were then hit with high-explosives artillery rounds.


INTERNATIONAL ACCORD

The Convention on the Prohibition of Use of Certain Conventional Weapons went into effect in 1983. Protocol III of the convention prohibits the use of incendiary weapons against civilians. The protocol also forbids their use against military targets within concentrations of civilians, except when the targets are clearly separated from civilians and "all feasible precautions" are taken to avoid civilian casualties. The United States is a party to the overall convention, but has not ratified the incendiary-weapons protocol.

I don't have any problem with white people, but I don't care for the KKK. I have no problem with Muslims, but I don't care for Hezbullah. Basically the same thing, except one group hates 'niggers' and the other group hates 'kikes'.

Not sure I ever understood the phosphorus weapons stuff. I guess they're saying it's better to be blown into small pieces by high explosives than be killed by phosphorus. Personally, I wouldn't want to die by *either* means; dead is dead. I guess they don't want to outlaw every means of killing people though, because then we'd be stuck with...peace.

I just watched about two hours of CSPAN debate where a lebanese newspaper writer said that hezballah is now looking for a cease fire and welcomes international peace keeping force.. as long as that international peace keeping force consists only of the nations of syria and Iran at the lebanese israeli border. Think Israel is gunna go for that?? HAHAHAHAHAHA

The lebanese guy also said that hezbullah thinks they are winning this war and that the entire arab community is rallying behind hezbellah and looks forward to their defeat of israeli invaders.

The Israeli general said that once this offensive is complete they will in fact persue the source of the missels and insurgents (iran/syria) with full use of force if the international comunity does not act to restrict the deployment of these missels to military extremests (terrorists if you will). He made it sound pretty clear that if Iran so willingly gives terrorists this technology they will most likely give them nuclear weapons as well and that is concern is paramount to Israel and the rest of the free world.

Let me clue the world in on something... if Israel stopped getting hit with missles.. they would probably be much more inclined to stop advancing in lebanon and allow (real) international forces to supress offensive activity in lebanon. Now I know this conflict is a whole three weeks old and the liberals have already forgot how this whole thing got started (two soldiers.. AND A FUCK TON OF MISSLES SHOT AT CIVILIANS.. with a lebanese government saying.. oops.. too bad.. nothing we can do.. and we dont want any help either.).. but lets see here..

Watch this video if ya like videos to watch.. its not even bloody or anything..

http://players.mediazone.co.il/media/authors/34/playlists/2423/2423_static.asx

It shows iranian military trucks delivering missels to peoples houses in Kfar Qana.. then a short time later arial video of missles being fired from those areas. The israeli military reviewed satalite photos of the building full of civilians that just got "hit" and determined that the building was still standing 8 hours after their air strike of the area.. and most likely Hamas/Hezbullah blew up the building full of their own people to try and win over the heart of the international community.. Im not saying its the truth.. but thats what they are saying.. All I know is war sucks and I hope Israel gets their damn point across this time.. and if they bomb the fuck out of irans nuclear processing plants.. all i can say is.. TEAM ISRAEL! FUCK YEA!

Now the lebanese UN embassator is like.. yea we talked with hezballah and they want a cease fire.. and then he was asked.. "so if you had no control over them three weeks ago what makes you think you have control over them now"

His response was that they talked to the elected officials in their government that are hezbellah members and they said so.. and the division of the lebanese army that is hezbellah..

Come on people.. see the truth... lebanon=hezbellah

maybe not 100% (yet) but pretty damn close.

Wouldnt it be great if we had a rouge army that just blew people up we didnt like.. and then our government was just like.. "oh its not us.. its that rouge army that lives/operates/and is funded by us and our constituents.. not our fault.. sucks to be you"

I'm going to step out on a limb here and say that I have a hard time backing either side of the Israel-Hezbollah dispute. There's tremendously hurtful violence being instigated by both parties, and I find it hard to justify in any fashion. I don't say that because it's the safe stance to take but because I think anyone with any sense of something other than polarized righteous indignation must see that both sides ought to exercise restraint. Immediately.

and it's really kind of disturbing to hear excuses for the use of these, what can only be called, weapons of mass destruction...DU and white phosphorous...

all i hear is, they're so bad, so we've just GOT to drop these bombs on them that melt skin and give people cancer...to protect their freedom...

there's no justification for it on either side.

jamstigator
08-01-2006, 10:02 PM
If they arrested generals and politicians for letting their troops use DU and phosphorus, they'd probably want to start the arresting in the U.S., since we pioneered the concept of using DU in munitions. Britain, France and the Soviet Union all also make DU munitions. They're probably sold to anyone who wants to buy them. Their purpose isn't for civilians though, they're for piercing hardened targets, a cheaper alternative to tungsten, albeit a more dangerous one. However, in the context of bullets, well...I dunno. I mean, how much care do you take with people you're trying to kill? Should we issue the enemy flak jackets and kevlar AND promise not to use depleted uranium THEN try to kill them? If they harm OUR troops, which they might, that's a totally different issue. If that's the case, they should be voluntarily banned immediately.

As for as white phosphorus, "Use of white phosphorus against military targets (outside civilian areas) is not specifically banned by any treaty." Sooo...

One might contend that lots of Lebanon is a civilian area. But if that's so, then why are militants firing weapons from those areas, mostly at civilians elsewhere? Doesn't armed conflict in an area, by both sides, mean that A) this is no longer a civilian area; and B) wake up, civilians, it's time to get out of here?

It's all moot anyway. Israel is obviously determined to destroy as much as they can of Hezbullah: infrastructure, militants, weapons, vehicles, buildings. I'm not gonna argue with that either, because I remember the day Hezbullah blew up 241 innocent civilians...Americans. I'm deeply sorry that the Lebanese let militant extremists occupy their country, and as a result, civilians are dying and suffering. Maybe next time, they'll be a little more cautious about letting extremists call the shots in their country.

Their UN negotiations are insane.. they want a multinational piece keeping force from syria and iran and they will not give up their weapons. If I was in the UN I would tell that bastard I dont negotiate with terrorists and I hope he has a safe trip home where israel will blow him to pieces.
