Both lack credibility - Hezabollah continues to deny that it targeted civilians as a diversionary attack...
One must read multiple sources and discover the facts for themselves. The Jordan Times is a decent read most of the time...
Basically, all the "sources" go back to one millitary side, so why would you believe one and ignore the other? (I do believe in Hesbullah source, and you do believe in the Israeli one.. This leading us to what?)

When one makes narrow statements its not hard to make them get fustrated and then point out the truth.
You got me there.

Yep - and I play the same word game that you are doing - answering the question that you don't want answered. And giving you the answer that you don't want to face. Care to play - your not doing so well at the game in which your wanting to play.
Examples..?! Really, you should answer questions I don't ask, maybe you should post them as infos rather than as answers.

What you can't handle other peoples opinions.
An opinion is far from judging wheather a thing is "correct" or "incorrect" without qualifications to do so.

Oh the propoganda claim - it seems to be a self-defeating arguement on your part. I have seen the news from Arab sources that claim the same exact information that the Palestinian terror groups are sending children to fight and use sucide bombs as matyr's. Are you claiming that those papers are also Israeli Propoganda....
Links?! And noo.. On the TV around here I havent.

Releasing prisoners almost always have some political considerations.
Still the point stands.. What is the percent of "releases" without persons from the other side as well?

The French Resistance fough mainly for cash....... now someone is attempting a major revision of history.
It is resistance, not terrorism. So no, the 'mainly for cash' statement doesn't apply here.

I was always of the impression the IRA wanted freedom for Ireland and those spanish terrorists want their province to be a free country or something like that. And Redleg already mentioned the French Resistance.

And how many do you think you need to kill until they feel pressured?
So far they don´t seem to feel like retreating into the sea. Instead it looks more like they advance even further...
I tell you how things happen: Israel/Hamas attacks the other, and make most "civilian" casualties, the other retaliates, mostly on other civilian casualties.. Both are at fault, but I would support Hamas for it's goal at least, and it's effort not to stand down.. Why? Seemingly, the Ceasefire(s) that happened while I was alive/conscious have usually been broken by some Israeli plane assassinating someone.. Am I to be blamed? To think that peace is a never-will-happen thing? My arguments are emotional, and biased maybe.. But as objective as I can go, 1 statement puts the fault at one goverment more. Israel has captives, Palestine don't!

You tell your own kids not to blow themselves up as kids, yet when they are old enough, they can go and blow up Israeli kids. Do you think Israeli kids are worth less than your own?
See above.

And that campaign was the only thing he ever did?
Nope, pick one and I will get ya the reason. (Though, Prophet Mohammed has only made ones against other tribes, that always have started the agression against him, just to faint Islam when it is small still, because they all didn't accep the idea of "equality").

X-Danger, out of curiosity where do you get your news? Even al Jazeera is saying the same things that other "Western" news sources say.
Al Jazeera, Al Manad, Al Arabiya, ANB, Al Alam, MTV, NTV, etc..
Quote:
X-Danger, do you deny that Hezbollah escalated the conflict by initially killing and kidnapping Israeli soldiers in Israeli territory? The Israelis had already set the standard of what they would do with the first kidnapping by Hamas so why would they be so stupid as to push Israel further? Have you heard the saying "don't mess with fire you gonna get burned", it definately applies here
You can't blame him. Why? In the past, he used to do that and trade prisoners.. What is so different in this incident?
Quote:
Furthermore with every post you make you show your bias and inability to come to term with well known facts that you CHOOSE to ignore. I think that the Israelis have definately overreacted and that they should not destroy so much of Lebanon as they have but I understand that they were the ones that were provoked into doing so. If Lebanon had disarmed Hezbollah when the Israelis left southern Lebanon in 2000 instead of letting them arm up we wouldn't have the problem right now.
Provoked? Let them, I don't really care.. All what happens is more death to more sides. Knowing that Israel is a goverment, and Hesbullah isn't, and that Israel will make no use of such a war, I just wonder why make a so stupid decision? Oh, and if a young child slaps a big adult, does the adult have the right to kill the child? And if he does, do we blame the child?

Bear in mind in your debate with Redleg is with someone who was against the US protecting Israel with it's veto power. He's being much more objective than you and provides respected sources to points instead of just irrational emotional arguments that you provide.
Respected suorces? Maybe, but from your own prespective. But what's annoying about Redleg is that he argues every word just for the heck of arguing it.. He might even argue it and be way off it, but man.. He just needs to quote it all doesn't he?!

I suggest you review your standpoint and try first of all read what's being provided here with a more objective viewpoint before you reply next time. As of now your not contributing to a healthy debate at all but merely adding emotion without logic.
Thanks for the advice. Will do.
