Yeah, we know. You're the only one who knows anything. As usual. Does the fact that the US supplied Israel with weapons change the fact that Hezbollah started this? Let's see.....Israel invades Lebanon in 1982. Hezbollah formed to oppose illegal invasion by Israel. Who did you say started it? Does it negate the UN resolution passed years ago that requires Lebanon to disarm Hezbollah? No, but you seem to think that violation gives Israel carte blanche to do what they want. So then, does that mean the Arabs have carte blanche do what they want since Israel has violated UN resolutions as well? Where does your hypocrisy, uh.......I mean double standard.....no, I mean your understanding lie on this issue? Does it negate the fact that Hezbollah is PART OF THE LEBANESE GOVERNMENT? Negate what fact? If a Republican Prexy tells the US military to invade Iraq, did only the Republicans invade Iraq or did the US? Only Republicans. Come on, big boy, we want to hear your answers. Just did, dude.

Oops! More story telling time by Mr. Bush: Senate finds no al-Qaida-Saddam link By JIM ABRAMS, Associated Press Writer Sat Sep 9, 10:06 AM ET WASHINGTON - Saddam Hussein rejected overtures from al-Qaida and believed Islamic extremists were a threat to his regime, a reverse portrait of anIraq allied with Osama bin Laden painted by the Bush White House, a Senate panel has found. The administration's version was based in part on intelligence that White House officials knew was flawed, according to Democrats on the Senate Intelligence Committee, citing newly declassified documents released by the panel. The report, released Friday, discloses for the first time an October 2005 CIA assessment that prior to the war Saddam's government "did not have a relationship, harbor or turn a blind eye toward" al-Qaida operative Abu Musab al-Zarqawi or his associates. As recently as an Aug. 21 news conference, President Bush said people should "imagine a world in which you had Saddam Hussein" with the capacity to make weapons of mass destruction and "who had relations with Zarqawi." continued............. news.yahoo.com
