Peace Now
While shells are falling a few miles away from my home, I cannot but remember this afternoon, while I was driving back home from Beirut Hezbollah sympathizer where offering passerby cookies and candies!
While my ear rings from the sound of explosions I cannot but see the firecrackers Hezbollah sympathizer where launching this afternoon rejoicing in their “great victory”
And tomorrow when I will see the destroyed bridge linking my home town of Saida to Beirut, I will only say from the bottom of my heart: Enough! Enough wars, death and destruction! Curse you Hezbollah to hell and back! For all this destruction, for all this death! No it is not Israel fault! It is your own! Curse you!
We cannot continue on this path! People build and teach and try to live peacfully, while others think only of death, destruction and war… the time has come to stand and say one word: PEACE
I want peace with Israel! NOW! I do not care for your ideologies, or your lines drawn on maps! For your religions! For anything! PEACE NOW!
PEACE

Ditto!
I hear you, man!
no bob..
yeh they might be wrong
but i don't want PEACE with israel.
i thing u gotaa give ur opinion about when u r much calmer..
everything left may be discussed: hizbollah right to act or react, Lebanese right to agree or diasagree of existence of "islamic resistanse";
but no..
no peace with israel ya bob. till now..
First of all who gave the right to Hezbollah to react!! God? I don’t accept them to lead my country to total destruction just to liberate one or two man in jail ( and do notice that the Lebanese prisoners have been tried and sentenced for crimes, not abducted and kidnapped!); you cannot hold a whole country hostage for just a few men!!!
Second Hezbollah reacted?? I m sorry they deliberately attacked Israel with no provocation! It is Israel who is reacting to Hezbollah’s aggressions (ironic ain’t it)
So spare me, I want peace I’m sick of shelling bombs and death. Come join me in Saida and we can hold a longer discussion about all of this and I m sure you will side by me!
PEACE NOW
How come this is seems to be the prevalant reaction here? With Isreal bombing the hell out of our country, and even France and Russia calling it a disproportionate act of war, how come everyone is denouncing Hizbollah and not Israel? As much as I am opposed to Hizbollah's fundamentalism (and any kind of fundamentalism), there is a tragic disproportion that Israel solely is responsible for. Their reaction is simply viscious, unjustified, inhumane...
bob, if ur comment was directed to me, then u didn't read right what i said previously:
"everything left may be discussed: hizbollah right to act or react, Lebanese right to agree or diasagree of existence of "islamic resistanse";
"
i didn't say just reacted i menioned their first action as well (if te soldiers were kidnapped beyond borders).
PEACE witH ISRAEL? SORRY no!!
عندك حل وسط اللي هوي اتفاقية الهدنة
AND I DON'T THINK pEACE WITH ISREAL IS GOOD FROM ECONOMICALY SAYING..
(IF WE EXCULDE IEOLOGIES)
I agree with you, Arch. Although I'm bursting with anger because we have been dragged into this by hizbollah, but those are the israelis that are bombing us non-stop. when it comes to peace, whom, if faced with options of war and peace, wouldn't choose a peaceful environment to live in? but i wish it were that simple or idealistic.
Now I'm pretty sure that no one would have moved a muscle to free the lebanese rotting in prisons, but I don't understand why the whole country should make a sacrifice for these individuals, instead of these individuals making the sacrifice for a country. there.
Amiril,
As much as I'd like to believe what you said, that the Israeli people are not as blood thirsty as our media draws, at times like these all that flies out of the window. The Israeli government leaves no doubt to anyone that it is heartless in its reactions, ruthless and unfair.
The first Israeli person I met was here in the US at work. We became friends, but she returned soon thereafter to Israel with her son and husband. I still try to think of her before I let my anger go, but at times like these I can't. Israel's reaction is simply unjustified! Hizbullah kills soldier, Israel should kill Hizbullah militants; Hizbullah kidnaps soldiers, Israel should kidnap Hizbullah militants. But leave civilians and infrastructure alone!
eve,
sorry to disagree with u..
just to remind that these individulas sacrificed them selves for lebanon long ago..
now other actions than maybe taken instead..
hizbullah taking alone the dicisions must be handled..
question: was the isreali soldiers kidnapped inside the lebanese borders or outside..?
this makes difference with me.

Israel is not innocent but I'm burning with anger because Hizballah dragged us in to this. Who will pay the bill for all the damage caused for this war? I was extremely angry and have had fights with people defending the hizb.Where the hell are they heading Lebanon to?Where are they taking us? How much time it will take to rebuilt all the damage? Who will bring back her father to a small girl? All this for what? Does it deserve all this?
Hilal,
It's ok, you can disagree with me :) I'm not under-estimating these individuals, but I hope that what is happening right now is not "terbeeh jmileh" for what they had done years ago. the price paid is too high (most importantly dozens of dead people), and I'd presume a nationalist Samir Kintar wouldn't want his whole country ruined in this way. Seek other ways that don't include the country's sole airport being destroyed like that. that's my opinion (Is there at least another Hariri in mind to handle the reconstruction?). That being said, we're dragged into this now. So, defending Lebanon's side against the attacks becomes a must.
Bob, I honestly can't tell you how touched I am by your post. I tend to be of the impression that Middle Easterners who support Israel today are generally doing so because of the ruin that Hizballah is bringing on to Lebanon rather than out of an understanding that Israel was attacked without provocation and out of a true desire to have real peace with Israel. Your post though makes it abundantly clear that you're a human being just like we are and that you truly just want to have peace. I'm honestly impressed as hell, touched and humbled.
Also Bob, it appears that you already know this, but I'm sure that it doesn't hurt my repeating. Please believe me when I say that Jews simply want to be able to live in peace and quiet. We don't want to be in Lebanon at all and we never wanted to be there. We only entered the first time after having been attacked by terrorists stationed there and the same is true now. We honestly want peace so goddamned badly that we'll do almost anything for it.
We gave away the oil-rich Sinai TWICE. Despite having been attacked from it without any provocation. We offered Arafat WHATEVER HE WANTED. Despite his being an evil torturer and murderer of the worst kind and our having gotten territory that (we believed) was rightfully ours and (all agree) was used as a stage to attack us without any cause.
We honestly just want to be left alone and to leve others alone. And I'm deeply touched and feeling quite hopeful in seeing these same sentiments in you.
Wishing you only good,
mnuez
You know blame whoever you want I do not care, while bombs are falling around me who started it? tit for tate? I can only ask why? Because two Lebanese guys who 30 years ago killed a whole family because they were Israeli! (Check what Samir Quiantar did)
Why I blame Hezbollah? Well because Israeli did not bomb my town until those murders kidnapped two soldiers? Why I blame Hezbollah?
Why? Tell me why?
You want to free Palestine? I do not? What do you want me to say? They have a government, freely elected. They choose what they want. Why must I hate some Israeli soldiers? He was born in his country like me he did not do anything. Yo want to blame someone go and find his long dead grandfather!. Why should I blame him for the supposed sins of his ancestors?
It is time to stand up. Call for peace with Israel! PEACE NOW!
Why do you disagree with me Hilal. You are living in a save and peaceful country? Why do you ask me to fight and bleed and lose my loved one? You want to fight Israel then come and do it! Do not ask me to stand and hold still while my town is becoming an isolated island! DO not ask me to praise some bloodthirsty Hezbollah fighters! Hell no! I will stand and call for peace and blame Hezbollah for all this! Look at Egypt! Look at Jordan! Did Israel attack them! Why must I bear the brunt of Israel reaction? Just because Hezbollah want the release two prisoners? How can you stand by them I call for peace and I mean it! Why should I hate Israel more than Hezbollah? Why shouldn’t I call for peace?
Finally, we should stand up and call for peace! And not stand by Hezbollah! The way to defend Lebanon is not by standing with them, it is with calling for a cease fire and the return of the two soldiers! The one who start bear the responsibility of the whole situation!
My thoughts are with all civilians on both sides of the borders! Israelis and Lebanese! May you all be save! And may all those who call for destruction and death bear the consequences of their own actions!
PEACE NOW
Amen!
It's good to hear some moderate voices on this blog...both sides of the border....
Hizbulla fucked up big this time....We all saw this coming..atleast 14 march did!
However let's not forget which side of the border we are living.
Truth is: If Israel cannot control Hizbulla...how do they expect the Lebanese government to do it?!! Civil WAR?!!
I've been reading some of the comments on jerusalem post www.jpost.com...and guys believe me Israelis hate our guts...and lots of europeans and americans hate muslims to the bone...and sympathize with Israel.
While some people separate between Hizbolla and the other lebanese... the majority don't.
Here are some quotes:
"Southern Lebanon needs to be a free fire zone, to the depth of the range of the rockets. Damascus may need occupation soon ...."
"Now that Israel was attacked HIzbollah its time to turn Lebanon into Gaza. Instead of targeting empty runways, bridges and buildings, go after the terrorist leaders and plunge Lebanon into darkness by destroying their infrastructure"
"To the ignorant Hamas, PLO, and Hezbollah, I leave you with the acronym BOHICA, Bend Over Here It Comes Again."
"Wars end when civilian populations suffer to the point of pressuring the governments for surrender. I say hell with them. Bomb them back to the stone age. No lights, no water, no food, fuck em. "
"If the IDF were to ask Jews to come to Israel and fight, I'd leave my life in the U.S. in a second to go."
"It's time to bomb Lebanon and Syria back to the stone age...RIGHT NOW! They've never gotten that far out of it anyway. Hopefully the idiotic Israeli government will figure out that the only way to fight these killers is to give them a dose of their own medicine. Civilian or military, KILL 'EM ALL, and let God sort 'em out. "
Go read some and enlighten yourselves...
So...for the time being...all we can do as Lebanese (with lots of differences) is to UNITE!!!
The way i see it, if Israel goes all the way...it will be the end of hizbulla...and maybe Lebanon... my heart goes to the poor civilians.
Xylocaine, such bitter light, but necessary. I agree, at this time more than ever, we should realize who's bombing our country and unite. It is simply disgraceful that we always turn internally and shred ourselves to pieces...
Bob, bravo.
May God protect you and all our brothers and sisters back home.
No one wants to see Lebanon destroyed AGAIN, no matter who is at fault, no matter who we want to blame and hate. They are both evil and stubborn forces, along with some behind-the-scenes forces.
Bottom line: Lebanon and Lebanese civilians are bombarded AGAIN. For that I stand by Bob asking and shouting for PEACE. Heck, in this case I want peace with 3ezrayil (the devil) not only Israel.
Since Israel and the world seem to think we have one, we should turn our voice and demand for peace toward our dear government who don't seem to be working for that in any way, shape or form. While the hot-shots are busy blaming each others for the lack of unity and understanding, the only party allowed to carry weapons goes and plays in the neighbours' backyard, provoking the big ugly dog who came running after them stepping everywhere we worked hard to plant and build.. Can we really blame the dog?
((to the Israeli readers of the blog, my comments are adressed to the government, not the people)
It is ironic how a few days ago, the world witnessed how Zidane attacked Materazzi, and now we're living the exact same thing on a bigger and much more serious scale. Provocation and a harsher attack.. it happens everywhere, but in some cases, it is DEADLY.
I have friends visiting their family in Lebanon right now. They're in the north, so they're safe for now, but they can't get back home.
I pray that the good people of Israel and Lebanon will be able to get through this, and fight Hizbullah together rather than fighting each other. And that Bob and all his friends and family stay safe.
Bob,
I am an American Jew and a Zionist. I pray tonight for both the soldiers of the IDF, and the people of Lebanon. Most of us know that you are being screwed by Hizbullah, and we want you to be free from Syria almost as much as you do.
It's as you say. Most people want peace. Israel has no territorial claim on Lebanon, and occupies no territory in Lebanon. There is nothing between us that would stand in the way of peace, if only the Syrians and their thugs were dealt with.
Of course people like xylocaine can look at forums and find people who say disgusting things. We're on the internet, right? The dumbest 10% are the loudest here, on all sides. It's very easy for idiots to beat their chests when sitting across the world from where the bullets are flying.
Ever since I saw pictures of Lebanon, I have dreamed of visiting Beirut and sitting in a coffeeshop with Lebanese. This dream is out of reach for now; there is still too much bad blood between us. But maybe someday, once you take back your country, there can be peace.
Stay safe. Pray that Israel's bombs land on the right people, and not on the innocent. Hizbullah needs to be dealt with, and I wish to God that Lebanon wasn't caught up in the middle of it.
Joel: Lebanese cannot fight with Hizbulla...they are One million...and very well armed...It was calculated to cost 100,000 lives...by hizbulla itself!!!and would be a lost war... If Iran and Syria are responsible why attack Lebanon?
Mastiff: Personaaly i'm against the act of hizbulla...but as you mentioned lots of idiots on both sides...i'm just glad that those stupid bloggers aren't the ones leading the Military Operations.
As i mentioned...it's good to hear moderate educated voices on both sides of the border...We want Peace...
Hilal,
Lebanese right to agree or diasagree of existence of "islamic resistanse";
Islamic resistance to WHAT? Whatever you decide needs to be "resisted", guy?
Get a grip. Lebanon just declared war on Israel, and you are talking about resisting a non-existant occupation?
Oh wait. There's an occupation again now. So, now you have a legitimate right to resist it, right? You're so smart-like, arranging to get yourself invaded just so you can resist the occupation, eh?
BOB,
well cheer up..
ur post has benn postedin an isreali newpaper.. that's how srelis invaded this site..
u know my opinin about islamic fundematlsm.. but u r missing the point..
u know what a zionist moveent is?
some suporters declared hat they r zoinist..
u r missing the point dear bob.
and yeh don't worry.. my wole family is there..
and to all isrealis no we are not shii.. yet the isreli attacker right now is our enemy.. (hizballah members mostly r shiis)..
i am so sad for ll of u.. especially when u know a person face to face who tells u:
PEACE NOW!!!
bob, for them
they mean :
isreai-imposed - peace now. and when it is like that, they will put their own rules.
mirco,
u don't get it..
u will never get an imposed peace!
don't dream about it!!
and by the way do hizballah member hide in hospitals and under bridges that were bombed?
mirco:
no that's not usually what is done..
that what u r told in televisions and media..
I am an average American who is watching events unfold and praying for all innocents in this terrible situation to be safe and unhurt.
My question to those who are living in this situation is this...
Why does the Muslim world not financially support the Palestinians? Some of the Muslim countries are awash in wealth, but they do not give these poor people any help at all...they appear to be using the Palestinians as pawns...to keep them oppressed and poor and angry...at Israel. This way (it least it appears to me and many Americans), the radical Muslims can continue to provoke Israel.
Many Americans are very aware that the Lebanese people are powerless against the Hizbollah...that they have been bullied and tormented by them for years...we understand that Hizbollah acts by directive from Iran and Syria. I cannot begin to even understand all the complexities and fear that define this situation, but I wanted to ask my question above...and to let the people of both Israel and Lebanon know that there are many Christians praying for your safety and your release from fear.
catherine,
we have been asking this question since ages.. still don't answer.
reality is much two complex than IGNORANT mr. bush says (sorry for that but he is called by that in arab countries and in lebanon)..
it is not as fox shows neither as cnn.
you have to return t the roots of the problems.
saying that iran and syria are the bad guys is one side .. extremism in israelian and american goverments and election of mr. bush and their acts in middle east gave rise to other extremists on the other side..
it is too compex.. u gotta go into details.
I suppose you!! I hope that Europe and my country Italy IMMEDIATLY help you to stop this conflict! Stop wars! I want that global next generation grows with PEACE concept in hearth!
A big hug.
Claudio
sorry i just saw this and i kwow its to late to write a comment but what is everyone talking about?

go Hezbollah and go lebanon
im proud of all the lebanese ppl that stoob up for there counrty im really proud of them
Samir Kintar, Israel's longest held Lebanese prisoner who has been incarcerated in Israeli jail for the past 30 years. In fact the Hezbollah operation last year in which 2 Israeli soldiers were kidnapped, which sparked the 34 day long war, was meant to use the 2 soldiers as bargaining chips in order to force Israel to release Samir Kintar.
"THE REAL REASON SAMIR KINTAR IS ISRAEL'S LONGEST HELD LEBANESE PRISONER!!!!

Samir Kintar
سمير القنطار
On July 12, 2006 Lebanese Hezbollah militants crossed the border with Israel in an operation dubbed "Operation Truthful Promise," which was aimed at nabbing Israeli soldiers in exchange for Lebanese prisoners. Hezbollah succeeded in the operation and successfully took hostage two Israeli soldiers, Eldad Regev and Ehud Goldwasser. During the operation, eight Israeli soldiers were killed. This ignited the sequence of events which led to the Israel/Lebanon summer war.
The story goes further back than July of 2006. It really began in April 1979! On Sabbath day, April 22, 1979, Danny and Smadar Haran met up with a monster named Samir Kintar.
Danny and Smadar were a loving Israeli couple. They had everything they could ever hope for... love, marriage and two precious daughters, Einat, 4 and Yael, 2. That day Smadar was home anticipating Danny's return from work and preparing for the Sabbath. She had just picked up their two toddlers from day care. Danny, on the other hand, was looking forward to nothing more than getting home and spending time with his wife and his two young daughters.
Traditionally, the Sabbath is the most special day of the week, the day the family gets to spend time together and celebrate their bond to Judaism. It was especially important for Danny who, as a young father, had to work extra hard in order to provide for his wife and young children. Little did Smadar know that this would be the last Sabbath she would celebrate with her family because of a man named Samir Kintar. Around midnight the nightmare began!
Who is Samir Kintar?
Samir Kintar is one of three Lebanese prisoners still serving time in Israeli jails. Kintar, a Lebanese Druze born on July 20, 1962 in the Lebanese mountain village of Aabey currently holds the dubious distinction of being the longest held Lebanese prisoner in Israeli jails! He was a member of Abu Abbas' notorious PLF (Palestine Liberation Front) which committed despicable acts of terror against Israeli, Jewish, and American targets worldwide throughout the 1970's and 1980's. Kintar was convicted and sentenced to a 534 years prison sentence by the state of Israel. Israel even almost tried to pass a bill to have him executed! What did he do? What was his crime?
The Nasser Operation
The crime he committed was the most horrific crime ever committed on Israeli soil! On April 22, 1979 Samir Kintar along with a gang of three other PLF terrorists (Abed Majeed Asslan, Ahmed Al-Abras, and Mhanna Salim Al- Muyaed) departed from the southern Lebanese seashore city of Tyre on a 55-horsepowered rubber motor boat. Their destination was the Israeli coastal city of Naharyia, about 10 km south of the Lebanese border, the target of their operation was a residential apartment building. This operation was dubbed "Nasser Operation" and its aim was the killing and terrorizing of Israel's Jewish civilians.
The terrorists made landfall in the Israeli coastal city of Naharyia at around midnight, undetected under the cover of darkness. As they made their way along the shore, they were intercepted by an Israeli police officer whom they shot dead. In Naharya the terrorists broke into a building as other Israeli police officers arrived on the scene. The terrorists then broke into Danny and Smadar Haran's apartment, fired their weapons and threw grenades. Smadar managed to find a crawl space into which she, her younger daughter, 2 year old Yael, and a neighbor all hid. To prevent Yael from crying and giving away their hiding place, Smadar covered the child's mouth with her hand.
According to Smadar "They held Danny and Einat while they searched for me and Yael, knowing there were more people in the apartment. I will never forget the joy and the hatred in their voices as they swaggered about hunting for us, firing their guns and throwing grenades. I knew that if Yael cried out, the terrorists would toss a grenade into the crawl space and we would be killed. So I kept my hand over her mouth, hoping she could breathe. As I lay there, I remembered my mother telling me how she had hidden from the Nazis during the Holocaust. 'This is just like what happened to my mother,' I thought."
Sadly, Smadar's attempt to muffle her daughter's whimpering proved fatal. Yael was accidentally suffocated and died within the hiding space.
According to Smadar Haran, her last memories of Danny and Einat, that day, were when they were being led away at gun point by Kintar. She could hear from her closet space Danny telling Einat, "Don't be scared, my baby, it will be alright" and Einat replied to him in her little voice, "Dad, where is Mommy? I want Mommy." Smadar's last memory of her 2-year-old daughter, Yael, was when her little daughter was taken to the apartment hiding space. Right before Yael had her mouth covered by her mother, she asked her mother "Where is my little pacifier." There was no time to search for the pacifier. Minutes later Smadar covered Yael's mouth to keep her from revealing the hiding space. Smadar soon felt her daughter's tiny tongue licks and lip sucking on the palm of her hand. She didn't know what to make of it at first but hours later was told by doctors and paramedics that the reason Yael was licking her palm while she covered her mouth was because she was gasping for air.
After taking Danny and four-year old Einat hostage, Kintar and his group took them down to the beach. Samir Kintar quickly shot Danny in the back and then drowned him in the Mediterranean Sea to ensure his death. While Kintar drowned Danny, he forced terrified Einat to watch and cry. According to eyewitnesses, "Danny was murdered in front of Einat so that his death would be the last sight she would ever see." Little Einat would not have that horrible memory in her head for long. Kintar, the brave Lebanese freedom fighter, crushed Einat's skull over and over upon the rocks with the butt of his rifle until she was dead.
During the ensuing shootout between Kintar's terror group and Israeli police, two policeman were killed along with two of the Arab terrorists. Kintar and the fourth participant, Ahmed Al-Abrass, were captured. Ahmed Al-Abrass was later free by the Israeli authorities in the infamous May 1985 Ahmed Jibril prisoner exchange deal in which 1,150 Arab prisoners (some of whom had blood on their hands) were exchanged for three Israeli soldiers. Kintar was not included in the deal.
The Israeli government determined at first to make a decision to execute Kintar, for his horrific crime, especially for the fact that he tortured and beat to death the 4-year old toddler. Israeli Prime Minister at that time, Menachem Beagin , proposed a draft resolution to the Security and Foreign Affairs Committee in the Israeli Keenest on April 24, 1979. He demanded to eliminate a previous resolution stipulated by the Israeli cabinet, which said no execution should be implemented against terrorists as the international law prohibits it. The Israeli Foreign Minister Izer Weizman and Transportation Minister Hayeem Landau supported Beagin’s draft resolution. Abraham Sharer, who was the head of the Likude parliamentary bloc also, called for Kintar’s execution. Isaac Shamir issued a statement on April 25, 1979 also calling for his execution.
The Israelis tried to implement the execution sentence on Samir Kintar and the whole parliament agreed on them. The only dilemma they were having was the Israeli law that doesn’t allow execution except for the Nazis of the World War II and to those found guilty of betrayal to their country. Furthermore, they did not want the international community on their backs; also, they wanted to improve their relationship with Egypt after the peace process. As a consequence, the Israeli central court in Haifa sentenced Kintar to 5 life sentences plus 47 years to come up with the total of 542 years. During the trial, Kintar was waving victory signs, and called himself a hero.
Samir Kintar has confessed proudly to his murder of the little girl and never once showed one ounce of remorse for his crime. Even while serving his prison term, he has bragged repeatedly during interviews about how proud he was for murdering the 4-year-old Israeli child. While in prison Kintar got married and even receives conjugal visits. Below he stands proudly alongside other convicted Arab murderer, Marwan Barghouti.
Several months later, the PLF seized the Achille Lauro, an Italian cruise ship, and demanded that Israel release Kintar along with a list of 50 other Palestinian prisoners. Ironically out of the 50 Arab Palestinian prisoners that were demanded, Kintar was the ONLY one that was "actually" named on that list. The hijackers killed a wheelchair-bound American Jewish passenger, Leon Klinghoffer, and threw him overboard into the Mediterranean Sea. Kintar was not released, but his supporters would not give up. In 2004 Israel release ALL Lebanese prisoners except for Kintar and two other Lebanese (Nissim Nasser and Yehya Sakaf). In fact Kintar, as well, was almost released by Israel during that infamous Israel Hezbollah Prisoner Exchange of 2004, BUT in the last second Hezbollah violated the agreement and Kintar remained behind bars!
War: July 12, 2006
On July 12, 2006 per orders of Hezbollah leader, Sheik Hasssan Nasrallah, Hezbollah terrorists crossed the northern Israeli border. They attacked two Israeli military vehicles with anti tank missiles, killed four soldiers, kidnapped two others and demanded the immediate unconditional release of Samir Kintar in exchange for the two abducted soldiers. Hezbollah originally named this operation "Operation Freedom for Samir Al-Kintar," but on the days leading up to the July 12 attack it was shortened to "Operation Truthful Promise." The latter referred to the "true promise" Nasrallah had made to the Kintar family that the cross-border kidnapping of IDF soldiers to force the release of Samir Kintar.
In subsequent interviews on Al-Manar TV station Dr Mohamad Jawad Khalifeh, the Lebanese Minster of Health, congratulated Hezbollah for "its great actions" and said that "Lebanon has the right to regain its prisoners and liberate them." Ali Ammar, an Hezbollah member of the Lebanese Parliament, stated his opinion that "particularly at this basic stage in the history of the homeland and the nation, this government should have expressed solidarity with its people and let Samir Quntar feel that he is a Lebanese par excellence." After the kidnapping, Samir Kintar’s brother, Bassam Kintar, said "I kiss the hands and foreheads of the warriors who executed the kidnap. I imagine Samir at the moment, with happiness raising his spirits and those of his friends," he said.
As expected, the Israeli government was not interested in negotiating with terrorists. They sent a small number of troops into southern Lebanon in an attempt to quickly find and free their two soldiers. Soon Hezbollah began shelling Israel's northern communities with Katuysha rockets in an attempt to kill as many innocent men, women and children as possible and to pressure the Israeli government to take the prisoner exchange demand. Israel had no choice but to escalate their response. Both Hezbollah, their supporters and Lebanon's civil infrastructure all suffered the consequences. Even though Israel defeated Hezbollah during this war, it still didn't manage to get its soldiers back.
During the fighting Israel captured a Hezbollah terrorist by the name of Ali Hassan Saliman. According to Saliman, in the interviews/interrogations following his capture, he said that “the main objective of Hezbollah's corss-border kidnapping of two Israeli soldiers was to secure the release of Samir Kintar.” Also, that “Nasrallah had made a promise to the Kintar family that Samir would be released. The Hezbollah operation was first and foremost aimed at releasing Kintar. Everything else was secondary.”
Israel's track record of going against it's previous policy of not releasing Arab prisoners with blood on their hands in exchange for IDF soldiers has come home to roost. Arab terrorist groups have been encouraged to kidnap Israelis in the hope (and often the expectation) that these soldiers will become bargaining chips for the release of Arab prisoners. This softening of Israel's formerly strict policy of never negotiating with terrorists has merely added fuel to the fire. Israeli soldiers are supposed to protect the children of Israel, not to facilitate the release of child murderers, such as the monster, Samir Kintar.
Neither Israelis individually nor their military intentionally targets children or any non-combatant, for that matter. When children die, it is nearly always because they are caught in the crossfire or when they are "set up" by their fellow Arab-terrorists to score propaganda points. But NEVER would manner of the killing be so pre-planned nor would the act itself be so glorified, such as that as Samir Kintar.
Smadar Haran has since remarried and is raising a new family. She hopes that Samir Kintar will stay behind bars until his dying day. "I don't believe that the terrorist will be released now, and I don't believe that the Israeli government will accept this request, after it promised not to release terrorists with blood on their hands."
We at SamirKuntar.net concur with Smadar Haran. We will do whatever we can to see that Samir Kintar rots in Israeli prisons. We would also urge the Israeli government and courts to reverse the long-standing policy of not allowing for the administration of the death sentence. After all, Samir Kintar and other Samir Kintars like him never thought twice about administrating the death sentence to little Einat Haran and other Einat Harans just like her!
CONCLUSION
Kintar was not the reason Israel chose to go to war with Lebanon but he was the reason Hezbollah kidnapped the two soldiers which set the war process in motion.
POSTSCRIPT
Neither Israel nor Hezbollah doubt that Kintar murdered Danny and Einat Haran. The only difference is that Israel sees him as the cold-blooded murderer he is. Hezbollah and their supporters glorify him as a freedom fighter and hero!
There is another point worth mentioning. Hezbollah has never claimed that Kintar was innocent or that he may have been framed. They only demand his release as if he were being held unlawfully and that Israel had no right to imprison him. Once again it's all about Israel never doing any right and Arabs incapable of doing any wrong!
A SAD GRUESOME REALITY
After drowning Danny in the sea in front of little Einat, Kintar, the brave Lebanese freedom fighter, then turned his attention towards the frightened little 4-year old. He took his rifle and then swung it across the little toddler's head, knocking her to the ground. As little Einat was knocked to the ground, she was screaming and crying hysterically "mommy daddy help me," while thrashing her little legs around in the sand. But unfortunately Einat was alone, and no one was there to save her. Kintar then dragged the little toddler a couple of feet to the closest rock he could find, this was while she was begging him not to hurt her. Kintar, then laid her head down on a rock, with the intention of crushing it with the butt of his rifle. Einat, instinctively covered her head with her little arms, Kintar struggled with the little toddler until he finally managed to clear her arms out of the way so that he could aim for the head, and then he proceeded on beating her over and over with the butt of his rifle until blood rushed out of her ears and her little cries faded away as she was knocked into unconsciousness. Then, to ensure she was dead, Kintar continued on beating her over the head, as hard as he could, several more times until her skull was crushed and she was dead.
SHORT NOTE: The way Kintar killed little Einat is reminiscent to the way the Nazis used to kill Jewish babies during the Holocaust, by crushing their little heads with their boots or with the butts of their rifles!

Last night the Israeli government failed to sportsbook extend its ban on new settlement construction in the West Bank. This is bad news. Israelis and Palestinians are negotiating over the future of the West Bank. Renewed settlement construction sends a bet nfl dangerous message about Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's commitment to peace talks.

The crisis in the media industry has been most acutely felt in the decline of international coverage. Major dominical costa rica tours
newspapers and TV networks have closed foreign bureaus, major news media are relying solely on wire reports for international coverage, and airtime devoted to global affairs has declined significantly. Nine years after the 9/11 attacks, with two wars that the US is fighting overseas, America's news organizations have diminished rather than enhanced their international reporting infrastructure.
