Sunday Bloody Sunday...

Qana Massacre - SEE FOR YOURSELF You only have to watch Wolf Blitzer cut off the Lebanese advisor's recommendations for a two-state solution, prisoner repatriation, 1968 borders Peace Plan, "We'll have to leave it at that," cut-away to a Sunday Morning-style downtown sunny Tel Aviv little Jewish boy sucking on his slurpy trailing his mama denouement, with no analysis, and definitely no video of today's latest war crime by the Israeli Army, entombing 50 dead Lebanese children in rubble of an entire apartment block.
Little boy in Tel Aviv with slurpy. Good. Eye candy.
50 dead children in Lebanon buried in rubble. Que?

Hey, come on now. Israel has the right to "defend itself", remember? What those pictures show are the results of a nation "defending itself" like hell.

While I empathize with your position regarding the media's reporting on the situation in Lebanon, FPPs are not for editorializing. GYOB.

This article (Salon) claims that the idea of Hezbollah fighters mixing with civilians apparently is not true.

I hate Wolf Blitzer. But he DOES help expose the "only Fox is conservative" lie.

I was subtly implying that the OP may have been imbibing, on this, the Day of our Lord. Apparently I was too nuanced. I'll try to be more direct in the future, Decani.

Rice says time for cease-fire after IAF strike kills 50 people in Qana
Ha! After the bomb this morning killed 50 people, the Lebanese prime minister told Rice not come to Lebanon again. Thereby she was out of the game. Now Rice gives in?! The whole plan is in shambles.
even the jackals from the press have sd there were no arms of any kind at qana
it is murder
pure & simple
the IDF sd there were rocket launcher sites
press says there was no such evidence
they are butchers
pure & simple

U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, speaking after the Israel Air Force strike bombing of the Lebanese village of Qana, said it was time for a cease-fire in the war between Israel and Hizbollah guerrillas.Rice did not decide to cancel her trip to Beiruit. Lebanon told her NOT to come, and also that only an immediate ceasefire will be acceptable after this bombing run which has now talled up to more 50 dead, more than half children.
At least 50 Lebanese citizens were killed, 23 of them children, in the IAF strike on a building. Dozens of others were reportedly trapped in the rubble. Several houses collapsed and a three-story building where about 100 civilians were sheltering was destroyed, witnesses and rescue workers said.
Rice said she was saddened by the bombing and confirmed that she had cancelled a planned trip to Beirut, but would stay in Israel to try to work out a deal for ending the 19-day-old conflict.

PenDevil: I don't know who's right in regards to this, but (a) the provenance of those photos is a bit hazy and (b) why would they be manning anti-aircraft guns in residential areas unless there were actually aircraft in said areas?

...that is, wouldn't they be using the anti-aircraft weapons a defense measure in this case? Honest, I'm curious...

This may seem like just another intramural squabble over conservative doctrine (should we save the world before we destroy it? Or destroy it and then save it?)
