Probably one of the best speeches (in terms of depth and delivering a point) I have heard since the terrorist organization Hezbollah attacked Israeli soldiers capturing/kidnapping (seems to depend on your point of view) two starting the most recent crisis in the Middle East:
It is worth noting that Dianne Feinstein is on the left wing of the Democratic Party. Considering how strong words in support of Israel, this is an interesting juxtaposition. She has done a better job of speaking in support of Israel than any of the neo-cons.
France has proposed a good ceasefire with a plan for preventing more attacks by Hezbollah which has now fired over 1500 missiles into Israel since the current crisis began.
You can read the AP report here.
I hope that this ceasefire is imposed immediately! This ceasefire is fair to Israel and imposes a solution to the current crisis that will not result in Israel occupying Southern Lebanon and does not allow a terrorist organization that is merely a proxy for Syria and Iran to occupy Southern Lebanon either.
I found this image to be worth a thousand words. It is of the Israel strikes in Beirut:
Let me be clear: I am not happy with the current situation. I am pissed off that so many civilians have died on both sides. I am especially pissed off that a Canadian UN Observer is presumed dead. I want to see this madness end sooner rather than later.
Clearly you are not pissed enough- in fact you contradict yourself too much. On one hand you work with so much enthusiasm for people’s right to know (and I truly, madly, deeply appreciate that) and on the other hand you try to prove Israel’s point by showing just their point of view. If you really understand there may be other points against what they are upto-you should address them as well- as I also believe you have put your heart into democracy too.
And obviously if you can’t do that- stop making so much uproar about all that democracy and freedom of speech-you will only make a fool of yourself by that hypocratic attitude.
I hope you understand and agree that no violence of any sort should not be talked in favor of- regardless of imparted by who and imposed upon whom.
