How crazy-ass is this crap going to get? Do any of you guys have any insight on the situation?
With the Hezbola and Isreal thing going down now, I kind of have the feeling that the Gene is out of the bottle on this one. :confused:

Neither side is going to back down - Israel says they're not fighting for land or to invade, they just want the rockets to stop - the Palestinian groups say they're not fighting for land or to invade, they just want the rockets to stop. In other words, they're fighting because they're fighting. How do you sit down and talk a compromise on that?

Israel is fighting on 2 fronts at once. They may end up bombing Syria or Iran. It isn't WW3, but it is serious. I'm sick of those jackasses at the UN telling Israel to back down. Hezbollah and Hamas will never back down. I want peace for everyone there, but it will not happen anytime soon. The rest of the Middle East isn't that bad. Qatar, Oman etc fairly peaceful.

It's a bit more complex than it seems. Syria ran Lebanon de facto for many years. Hezbollah is a product of Assad (Syrian Dictator) and Iran. The Lebanese people get fucked both ways. They had a Cedar Revolution to overthrow the Syrian puppet regime (with mixed results) Obviously, I disagree with any targeting of civilians. I would have to see the context in which it happened.Quote:

I also think the jeruselem post may be a little biased in it's reporting.
I would have to know more specifics, I have been following a crisis in Ukraine. When targetting Hezbollah and Hamas, I would tend to give Israel a lot of leeway. JPost is one of many sources to consider. I trust them more than their opposition.Quote:

Crisis in the Ukraine? My sister in law is from there. Damn, maybe I should actually watch the news!
Do you mean how poorly they did in World Cup? :p: J/KQuote:

this is getting really bad, Israel tottaly fucked up by making intentional attacks on civillians. I dont care how many terrorists groups are attacking them, bombing suburban neighborhoods and civillian airports is completely unnaceptable. They have have the means to carry out surgical strikes against terrorists groups and they need to use them.
[QUOTE=missamerica]It's a political standoff in the Parliament. There are rumors someone is going to seize the building tomorrow. There won't be an all out civil war or anything they like that. The "opposing sides" played a friendly game of futbol yesterday.:thumb:Quote:

I haven't read the Jerusalem post so I can't comment on that.
Top 8 is pretty decent for their first cup. I really don't have a detailed opinion on this specific incident in Lebanon. I do know the overall history to some extent.Quote:

Iran and Syria are the puppetmasters (which is why it may get really ugly)Quote:

they need the puppets to get out of Lebanon,and Palis too stop the Sui bombin shit. im a bit more worried bout some dog eating North Korean Fuck with haft a brain and a nuke in his pocket right now that some of the shit going on there ,Lets get the fuck out of Irqai first then sit back and wait to see the who's who of stupid and who starts a conflict ..oh wait that was Hamas and Hezbolla ,and Palistine... their all a bunch of stupid fucks..
The wars in the Middle East will continue until the puppetmasters are stopped. The question is not whether there will be war, the only question is who will fight. If it isn't Israel, it will ultimately be the United States. North Korea is the same way. They will either succeed in drawing Japan into war - or the United States will blow them clean off the map (if the west coast is threatened). This is how things are, not how I wish them to be.:thumb:

Children, Welcome to WWIII. Enjoy
Without the state sponsors, it will only remain as minor skirmishes. I think the average arab is more concerned with putting bread on the table. I see it ending albeit brutally.Quote:

I would love for humans to live in peace and evolve. It would be irresponsible not to base our assessments on the situation as it is and has been, however.

I always thought WW3 would start in the Middle East. They have been fighting for years, but it seems to be getting worse and they're dragging the entire world into it, one way or another, so the international community have to take a side, they can't just sit on the fence.Quote:

Doomed.. We are all Doomed!!
i can't wait. i'm hopping up and down. i WANT to see the entire middle east, the holy land, palestine, all of it turned into ONE HUGE SMOKING GLASS CRATER that glows GREEN at night.
i want to see the devout pilgrims making the hajj, getting about half-way there and dying of radiation sickness.
i want to see an end to middle east oil.
i want to see an end to the squabbling that has been going on for about four thousand years (you can read up on it - it's called the Old Testament!) over a patch of ground that is mostly sand and rocks.
i'd also like to see anyone who thinks Shariah law is a good thing dressed in a pink tutu and forced to spin the wheel on "Wheel of Fortune" for a few weeks, but that's just a personal fantasy.
