How to Recognize the Enemy
An angry mob stormed the U.N. facility in Beirut on Sunday in response to an Israeli bombing in southern Lebanon that left more than 50 people dead. Among the various vandilizations performed by the rioters, they burned and stomped on American flags as well as U.N. flags and the flag of Israel, all while chanting “Death to Israel, death to America!”
According to most news sources, the death of Lebanese civilians at Qana as a result of the Israeli air strike has turned “world opinion” against Israel and the United States. For close to three straight weeks, Hezbollah has been firing as many as 100 rockets a day, more than 1500 altogether, targeting the civilian population of Israel.
But try and find an accurate body count of innocent Israelis killed by the Hezbollah rockets. The entire world press, including here in the U.S. is almost exclusively focused on the 54 innocents killed in Lebanon. As far as the leftists who control the press are concerned, the Hezbollah goal to seek the destruction of Israel and the United States is legitimate while any attempt by Israel to prevent more rocket attacks is an “outrage.”
The notion that an Israeli air strike that killed innocent civilians because Hezbollah has been firing their rockets from civilian neighborhoods has caused “world opinion” to turn against Israel and America is nothing more than a cynical lie. The “world opinion” in question has long been against us full force.
A “world opinion” that holds as acceptable, the murder of innocent Israelis at the hands of cowardly terrorists who openly admit that they do not wish to live in peace with Israel but instead, seek the anhilation of Israel first and America second, is nothing short of evil incarnate.
The line is being drawn and the sides are forming. Take note of those who condemn Israel for daring to protect herself while voicing support for Hezbollah. They are the enemy of liberty.

Terrorism is acts of mobsters with rockets and nothing more… Israel and the world must handle acts of terrorism as criminal act and not war… If the U.S. would have addressed the attack on the Twin Towers as such on 911 we would not be in the mess.

Hizbullaah have no legitimacy. Day after day they indescriminantly target civilians and claim that they are only “defending themselves;” when in fact they have initiated this attack. They have even less legitimacy than Palestinians fighting Israel, as Lebanon is no longer occupied by Israel whatsoever. In any event though, the tactics employed invalidate any message they wish to convey.
