Reply #7: politics in the middle east arent black and white... [View All]

for some thats hard to understand, but in the middle east its quite the norm:

israel attacked with force Because of the soldiers, because it was "enough"....the goal however was more than just returning the soldiers, it was to stop the kidnapping attempts, stop the sniping and stopping the occasional katusha....and to do that meant weakening hizballa....with its implications to syria and iran.

i didnt even mention the deaths....though deaths have an affect upon geopolitics they arent the subject in this case. and I rarly listen to CNN, I find the arab and israeli outlets and nassralla and the different analysis far more interestinng and informing.

the argument that "most of the world disagrees with me"..i assume your being egocentric and assume that most of the world consists of those countries that in the past have colonial histories and still believe they know what best...correct?...western europe. News Flash!! much of the arab world disagrees with you. (not so much the street as the rulers of jordan, egypt, syria, iran, saudi arabia etc)

you can argue with me, just bring some decent theories or facts....
