Are you saying that Nasrallah has control over the Israeli military?


In a sense. By raiding into Israel, killing and kidnapping soldiers in aid to Hamas, and opening fire across the border, Nasrallah posed Israel with a dilemma: Do nothing and admit MORE weakness in the face of growing Hezbullah power and an open act of war, or attack and have to fight a war with that entrenched power.

Neither option was good. The Israelis thought #2 was less bad.

How come everybody is a warmonger to you except the guy who started the war?

As for the Sunnis, do you claim they are unaffected by the war? In one breath, you claim that the Israelis have destroyed all of Lebanon. In the next, the Sunnis shouldn't mind because the bombs haven't landed on their heads. Make up your mind.

Nadine, you have to get a grip because you are going off the deep end into hysteria:

In one breath, you claim that the Israelis have destroyed all of Lebanon. In the next, the Sunnis shouldn't mind because the bombs haven't landed on their heads. Make up your mind.

When did I say either thing?
