THEY REJECTED A FUCKING CEASEFIRE

I'm so fucking pissed off with the Bush Administration's response to the goddamn Middle East bit.

EVERY FUCKING QUOTE I've read thus far in every article shows at best a half-hearted attempt for mercy on the fucking country of Lebanon.

"Look, defend yourself," Bush said. "But as you do so, be mindful of the consequences. So we've urged restraint

The Arab countries aren't united enough. Isreal is not a fucking superpower! Almost, but it isn't. I'm sure the US will be neutral in this case (or at least, very discreet), so if the Arabs could just plan something strategic and effective for ONCE, instead of lame, small attacks by small politocaly/terrorist organizations, then maybe they could stand half a fighting chance. AAARGH.

Yes but the Arab countries are like small mice in terms of military power. Israel has huge military backing due to US funding. Their resistance doesn't stand a chance.

If they were organized and united enough, if they used their resources to their advantage. Instead they're disorganized and ragtag, with a multitude of inner conflict. I'm not saying they'd win. But as it is right now they can barely defend themselves, much less afford an attack. I don't even know what they were thinking. But what's done is done, and Israel is being a big jackass as usual. Goooo, Middle East.

The situation sickens me. US funding of Israeli occupation of Palestine! No one fucking cares. We are having an action on the 21st against the occupation at Cornins office, a staunch supporter of the Israeli occupation. Let me know if you are interested.
