Default Lebanese Army Pounds Camp

Some good news!!!

Lebanese army pounds camp By Nazih Siddiq
Sat Jul 14, 7:15 AM ET

NAHR AL-BARED, Lebanon (Reuters) - Lebanese troops pounded a Palestinian refugee camp in north Lebanon on Saturday where barricaded al Qaeda-inspired militants fired eight Katyusha-type rockets, a military source said.

The army and Fatah al-Islam militants have fought often ferocious battles at the coastal Nahr al-Bared refugee camp for nearly eight weeks with no sign the Islamist militants will heed calls to surrender.

"We're getting closer and closer to them. The militants are counting on boobytraps and mines, but the army is advancing gradually and clearing those obstacles," the source said."

Default Ahhh

Militant Palestinians. Lebanon loves 'em. Egypt loves 'em. Jordan adores them. And they are the apple of Israel's eye. I believe Sirhan Sirhan was a Palistmino. Bless em one n all.

So war is a bad thing then; so instead of hailing this as "good news " we should all be working towards a time when we can all live in peace with each other.

Any setback for al-Qaeda-inspired groups can be considered good news. And yes, we should all be working towards a time when all radical jihadist groups are history. You can't sit at the bargaining table with people who think God is on their side, and all others are infidels.

But even the leader of the free World agrees with me

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/mid...st/6901666.stm

Pres. Bush wants peace talks too

And Pres. Bush thinks God is on his side but we should not hold that against him.

Peace is better than war. And "bombarding" places where innocent civilians are being killed is a bad thing - just like all terrorist attacks are bad things.

No right minded person would have said that tha 9/11 attacks were "good news " because innocent civilians were killed - so iIhave to question the moral compass of anyone who considers "bombarding" and innocent Palestinians being killed as being "good news "

So join Pres. Bush and myself in our request for Peace and not war

thankyou for your support
