… anything less than an utter defeat will henceforth be regarded as a ‘great victory’.

The same crud is spewed by the Liberal Party. Another terrorist link? ;o)

As Allah notes, it’s Todd Connor intro’ing the segment, the guy who interviewed me. So he seems to be on this story. Meanwhile, At The AP… AP: Rockets Hit Lebanon Despite Ceasefire Want to guess the punchline?……

Leonid Brežnev walks over the red square to go to work and sees the sun shining in a friendly way upon him. He says “good morning sun”. “Good morning comrade Brežnev, I hope you have a nice day today”. In the afternoon, he walks out of the office “Good afternoon sun”. The sun ignores him. “What happened to you today, you were so friendly this morning?”. “You can kiss my a-s now, I’m in the West”.

Similarly, you can safely bet that if it were Israeli rockets landing in Lebanon, the lib media would make a point of saying so. Ergo, the absence of the term “Israeli” in connection with “rockets” automatically means that the bad guys must’ve fired them. Didn’t even have to read the story to figure it out.

Still firing rockets, and they refuse to hand over their weapons. Although they do “compromise” by not displaying them in public.

Hizbullah will not hand over its weapons to the Lebanese government but rather refrain from exhibiting them publicly…

Not much in the way of proportional response in Hiroshima and Nagisaki for Pearl Harbor; it was just necessary to end the war once and for all.

I’ll bet Michelle could do a nice parody piece on the ‘proportional response’ people through the history of warfare.

Then there’s the “Schrödinger’s Lebanese”: Because Hezbos don’t wear uniforms, so long as they are alive, uninjured, and free, they are neither civilian nor combatant, but instead a wave function. Firing Katyushas or longer-range Iranian missiles doesn’t collapse the wave function. Only being killed, wounded, or captured, in a manner that can be identified as Israeli action, allows us to know that they are innocent civilians.

The flood of Lebanese coming back in so quickly are nothing more than human shields to make any response by Israel that much more of a propaganda opportunity when they respond to the inevitable ceasefire violation.

The sobering fact is that until we drop the pretense of fighting using ‘civilized’ warfare and instead fight to win while ignoring the whining of the ‘world’, the enemy has the upper hand.

The mightiest nations on the planet hobbled by standards of decency that the enemy has absolutely no intention of following. It is now a weakness we can no longer afford.

The longer we allow this, the more people, ‘innocent’ and otherwise, will have to eventually die. The enemy is telling us straight out, that anything less than an utter defeat will henceforth be regarded as a ‘great victory’.

This has to stop.

Sorry for the long rant.

Since most people will just read a headline and not the whole article, you can learn a lot about how a journalist or the institution they work for wants you to feel about the content. 7 Deadly Sins and Hot Air have a perfect example of misleading hea…

Gee, that’s odd. Hezbollah won, but Israel is leaving behind captured territories. What territory did Hezbollah capture while hiding behind women and children in Northern Lebanon?

The next time the Israelis invade, and it won’t be long given the UN’s lame and unenforceable cease fire agreement, there will be little doubt who the winner is.

When will the world community learn that these islamo-fascists are emboldened by any sign of weakness? I fear we are watching history repeat itself, the parallels are uncanny.

the fact that the missiles landed in Lebanon could mean that hezbolah was driven back beyond effective range.

Saw this headline early this morning:
Rockets Hit Lebanon despite cease-fire
