In iraq thousands of sunnis have been killed by shiaa militia while thousands of shiaa have been killed by sunni terrorists and their baathist supporters. I guess when arabs kill arabs on purpose it does not upset the world, and when arabs kill jews on purpose, the news is relegated to the back pages. But when you have an accidental hit on civilians who should have long ago been removed from the area of combat and when you are firing on military targets when a bomb goes awry, that somehow constitutes genocide. Israel imo overreacted in the attacks on Beirut, but certainly not on the attack that led to this awful tragedy. No one argues that the israelis were not going after rockets launchers when this occurred. But this is the one the Sarmans and Syls will go after as usual. BTW,I loved Geodes comment on NK. I think he will have second thoughts when he graduates High School.

Ms Hawkmoon, you spout rightwing propaganda, you use a junior high school level understanding of politics and government and you think you understand the world. That is quite sad but quite typical of rightwing laziness and ignorance. Just because someone, somewhere has placed a LABEL on something does not make it so. There has never been a communist country, there has never been a free market...these things are LABELS that do not exist in the real world. If you had a less simpled-minded understanding of human nature AND if you could actually think for yourself then you might begin to grasp the truth. Instead, you blindly accept what pablum is provided you without ever questioning its validity.
