Those that are targeted have been proven. The others are "colllateral damage". But, those that use human shields are the guilty parties here.

The other difference with the Nazis is sheer numbers, like 12,000,000 innocents verus 140.

It isn't unusual for insugents or guerillas in modern warfare to hide amongst their own people. It makes them harder to find, and then, when you kill a bunch of innocents in the attempt to squish the guerillas, they get to tell everyone what a bunch of monsters you are...then fire their own missles at civilian targets of the other side, claiming that the other guys started it anyway.

They have been previously tried in a neutral court of law as proof?
Collateral damage? Numbers of dead as a difference? ... no.

Bullshit. There is more evidence than that. An international court of law is a fucking joke. France might as well change their flag to all white.

US Citizens deserve a fair trial under the US Constitution.

These international criminals should be shot on sight.

Just like any nation that invades another that was no threat to them killing lots of civilians?

In war against an enemy with limited resources, you take out the supply routes. Hisballah is using shells and missiles from Syria and Iran, therefore the roads from Syria and and airports from anywhere have been taken out.

rkzenrage 07-17-2006 10:15 PM

That sounds like a "yes".

Undertoad 07-17-2006 10:16 PM

Try it another way. Hisballah can stop this whole thing within hours. All they need to do is give the two soldiers back.

Israel can stop this whole thing within hours as well. All they need to do is agree to cease to exist.

No threat to them?????? You are seriously ignorant. Seriously.

I think the formation of Israel was a serious mistake. But, I can't blame them for defending themselves.

So, if some Indians told you that your house was built on top of a sacred burial ground, would you give your real estate title to them.

I think not.

We Eurpopians stole the land in the New Continent.

No, the "Eurpopians" actually bought most of the land they settled, from the Indians.
The Americans, stole most of the "New Continent".;)

Israel is less-selective in its death-dealing.

One difference is that Israel drop leaflets in the week leading up to the bombing, telling the Lebanese people in the south to go north and disassociate from Hezbollah, if they wanted to stay safe. They were warned, and could have stayed alive, had they chosen to remove themselves from danger.
