Hezbollah is the problem. Not Israel.

You speak Arabic, Ted?
And your students...

On a similar note, I always wondered what kind of school you teach at. Now I got a hunch :(

>In the years to come while you all are trying to spin it that Israel had nothing to do with the collapse of the Lebanese democracy, I will be teaching thousands of students the opposite, or in other words, the truth.

And, unfortunately, for doing so, you'll probably get fired...

Ted, > In the years to come while you all are trying to spin it that Israel had nothing to do with the collapse of the Lebanese democracy, I will be teaching thousands of students the opposite, or in other words, the truth.

But Ted, I thought the elitists in academia don't believe in "absolute truth" ...

Besides, your students are probably more interested in MTV's "Laguna Beach" than in trying to figure out all of the history that has led to the current animosity between Israel and the Arabs. As for me, I'll just start with Isaac and Ismail ...

Your comment above fails to recognize that until the Israeli invasion which failed to accomplish what it set out to do, the Lebanese democracy was working albeit imperfectly. It's the Israeli failure that led to the strengthening of Hezbollah and subsequent imbalance in the gov't which is threatening the fragile Lebanese democracy.

In the years to come while you all are trying to spin it that Israel had nothing to do with the collapse of the Lebanese democracy, I will be teaching thousands of students the opposite, or in other words, the truth.


Before you start teaching you should educate yourself. Hezbollah pulled their six ministers out of the Lebanese government because they don't want the Lebanese government to approve the UN investigation into the death of Hariri, because it will likely point to the Syrian government, with potentially significant repurcussions for Assad in Syria. In other words, the current turmoil in Lebanon has almost nothing to do with the Israeli bombing of a few months ago - its about not shining a light on Syria's involvement in Lebanon.
