I has killed thousands of Kurds with chemical weapons, this ammounts to genocide.  In interogations of the alleged assassination attempt, 50 people died, mostly children.  Under his regime, a pregnant woman was hanged.  Fingernails being pulled out and drill bits through the shins were used as forms of torture and interogation.  He would make the families of the executed pay for the bullets used to kill them.  No one should stand up for this man.  He is along the lines of Hitler.

There are many reasons why there has been conflict between these two countries and there are many reasons why they had this recent conflict.  So, keep these things in mind:\n\n- Hezbollah (a recognised terrorist group) are a political party in Lebanon. They entered Israeli territory (internationally recognised borders) and kidnapped some Israeli soldiers for no apparent reason.\n\n- Hezbollah is funded by Iran and Syria and both countries have provided the terrorist organisation with extremely dangerous weapons that they use, with no provocation, against the Israelis. They have killed Israelis of all religions - Muslims, Jews, Christian, Druze etc.  The Iranian President at the same time has been saying to the world that Israel should not exist and that all Jewish Israelis should not exist there. This is called anti-semitism, which means that he discriminates and pursecutes people who are Jewish.\n\n- When Hezbollah and the Lebanese Government refused to return the kidnapped soldiers, Israel pleaded with them to return them again because it didn't want to have to come and get them.  They still refused and continued to launch rockets and other bombs into Israel from Lebanon, killing people, destroying homes and property and causing the people to live in bomb shelters in very bad conditions.\n\n- Hezbollah had been planning this provocation (the kidnapping) for at least a year or two and had dug an intricate system of tunnels that could be used to hide and transport people and weapons. They had also booby-trapped many buildings to try to stop Israeli soldiers from finding their kidnapped soldiers and capturing those launching terrorist attacks on Israel.\n\n- If a country is invaded (like Israel was) for no reason it is very difficult to sit back and not do something.  They had a responsibility to retrieve their kidnapped citizens and stop those who had been bombing their country (often around 200 rocket attacks per day).\n\n- A very easy solution would have been for the Lebanese Government to expel Hezbollah from the government unless they returned the kidnapped men, but this didn't happen.  So, there was much damage to their country by a country who was reluctant to defend itself.

Lebanese people come from Lebanon.  Yes, there is such a thing, you just misspelled it.  \nThat doesn't matter, you still got your question across.  Good for you.

This is what they usually do.They could not care less if it's civilians or militants they kill as long as they are Palestinians.\nAnyway they said it was a "mistake" but they seem to do many "mistakes" like this one.

In the 1970's the PLO, the Palistenian Liberation Organazation took refuge in Lebanon, and were launching attacks on the Isreali's from there, in 1978 and then 1982 Isreal invaded and succedded in driving the PLO from Lebenon, but when Isreal invaded, the lebanese themselves resisted and formed the Group Hezbollah, a guerilla fanatical religous group, and launched a guerilla campaign against the Isreali's, Isreal maintained a ten mile buffer zone within lebanon from 1982 until 2000, and Hezbollah always resisted Isreal within this territory until the U.N. brokered a peace agreement in 2000 and the Isreali's withdrew, but Hezbollah which was formed to resist the Isreali's no longer had a war to fight, they did not disband, instead they claimed the sheeba farms territory,(which was really part of Syria) as an occupied part of Lebanon, so they would not have to disband, and continued to attack and harass Isreal, and the reason they were fighting with Isreal this summer is because Hezbollah kidnapped two Isreali soldiers, which caused Isreal's response to punish Hezbollah for their actions, so Lebanon and Isreal are not actually fighting Isreal and Hezbollah are, not to mention the Lebanese army is a joke.  \n\nThough it is much more complicated that this, you might want to look it up on Wikipedia, alot of the Problems between the two go back to the very formation of Isreal, most arabs (an understatement) believe that Isreal itself should not exist, and this is the real root of the problem, this is it in a nutshell though like I said it is so much more complicated than what I've said.

The current Rwanda government is claiming that they have evidence from the investigation of the genocide that the French trained the "militias" that were responsible for the atrocities. Check the lates article out of Africa linked below.

The big concern I have is not so much when, but how it will be resolved.\n\nSuddenly, we see the Iraqi government cozinging up to the Syrian government.  Suddenly, after 23 years, they are ready to patch up the problems they've had with Syria. You know the Syrians, they're the ones coaxing Hezbollah to go to Lebanon and destroy their government, anyway that they can.  Even assassinate their government officials until the Lebanese government capitulates.  And, what's with the Iraqi's, have they decided it's time they patched things up with Syria, before the US pulls up stakes?  They won't have their big brother standing behind them anymore, protecting them from the neighborhood bully!\nThese are the same Syrians that send in arms, ammunitions, and jihadists to kill Americans, in Iraq.  More Americans have been killed by Syria's surrogates than from any other source.  Now, Syria is putting on the full court press with the US for a timetable for their pullout.  Has this enemy's government been emboldened because of the democrats coming to power?\n\nHas the US completely lost it's stones that it will allow this hoodlum el Assad to start throwing his weight around.  This sorry bastard won't be happy until Israel drops one right down his throat, because maybe the US has lost it's courage, but I seriously doubt that Israel has.  \n\nThe Arab world is frustrated with the US because it claims the US doesn't understand the Arabs.  In the direction the Arabs are going, they will cause an escalation of hostilities, then they will understand, it is them who is confused about the US and it's courage and resolve!\n\nIsrael will not let Hezbollah gain power in Lebanon, nor will it let Hezbollah re-arm to the point that it will be capable of launching round #2, even to the point that Syria must be neutralized, too!

Wow.  So the consensus here is that the Palestinians are the bad guys?  Um, they aren't the ones leveling preschools with tanks and laser-guided missiles.  Or kidnapping scores of high-ranking, dually elected government representatives.  If you ask me, an armed dissident sect of palestinians kidnapped one soldier (ie, POW... he was a soldier, after all, not a civilian), and that's an excuse for the Israelis to launch a large scale incursion, hurting hundreds of innocent people and set the peace process back decades????  I don't think so.

ISRAEL has drawn up secret plans for a combined air and ground attack on targets in Iran if diplomacy fails to halt the Iranian nuclear programme. \nThe inner cabinet of Ariel Sharon, the Israeli prime minister, gave “initial authorisation” for an attack at a private meeting last month on his ranch in the Negev desert. \n\n \n \nIsraeli forces have used a mock-up of Iran’s Natanz uranium enrichment plant in the desert to practise destroying it. Their tactics include raids by Israel’s elite Shaldag (Kingfisher) commando unit and airstrikes by F-15 jets from 69 Squadron, using bunker-busting bombs to penetrate underground facilities.
