People talk about the Iranians and the Lebanese as if they are monsters. Who ever said that? The cockroaches in Iran and Lebanon are the ones that should be eliminated. Trying to represent the terrorist groups as regular people of Lebanon and Iran is nonsense. If your peace loving Lebanese and Iranians support their home grown terrorist groups, then they are not so peace loving are they?

"Its more than just giving credibility to the Iranians........its counteracting all the lies. " Ok. It is an unfortunate thing that the Iranian spin is probably closer to the truth that ours. Our media has fallen so far. Where is Uncle Walter when you need him? "And yet, we are nearly at war with Iran and we stood passively aside as Israel devastated Lebanon." It is a failure of our leadership. And it happens at a time when our media has been intentionally hamstrung for decades. So there isn't a good, mainstream way to cut through the BS. Now the Internet can be used to glean the truth, but blogs haven't matured enough to be trustable and sifting through the foreign media is extremely time consuming. So media-wise, we are in a precarious position.
