To The Concerned Citizen of The World:

"Killing innocent civilians is NOT an act of self-defense. Destroying a sovereign nation is NOT a measured response."

Lebanese civilians have been under the constant attack of the state of Israel for several days. The State of Israel, in disregard to international law and the Geneva Convention, is launching a maritime and air siege targeting the entire population of the country. Innocent civilians are being collectively punished in Lebanon by the state of Israel in deliberate acts of terrorism as described in Article 33 of the Geneva Convention.

The Lebanese people feel left out by the world that is turning a blind eye on the savagery of the Israeli state. Israel does not seem to be capable of approaching any problem outside the realm of the military power bestowed on it by the government of the United States of America and other western governments.

We are writing you this letter in the hope that this massacre is immediately stopped. It is the universal duty of each individual to defend the innocents and expose the truth. The numerous civilian victims of the Israeli operations are increasing by the hour. The viciousness of the attacks has attained terrifying levels where a child has been cut in three while another was half burned.

The Israeli war machine, in its blind savagery, is destroying not only our lives but the foundations that could help the civilians survive beyond their massacre. The Israeli Defense Forces are destroying in few hours what Lebanon has spent years and billions of dollars to rebuild.

Up until now more than 100 Lebanese civilians have been killed, hundreds wounded, bridges and infrastructure destroyed, refugees are leaving Beirut in droves and worst of all the enforced siege might lead to a human catastrophe in the next 48 hours. There must be an end to this cycle of violence and continuous violation of international laws and basic ethical behavior.

Between the blindness of the international community and the deafness of the Arab one, the besieged Lebanese population has no way out.

Peace begins with justice

The media is so censored. I haven't seen that kind of picture on mainstream news. Thanks for posting and I hope you are safe.

lepetitprince, my thoughts are with you and i hope that you are safe.

lpp, i sent the link to my two closest friends with the strongest stomachs, and told them you would like it passed around.

i continue to hold you & yours in my thoughts & prayers.

While I deeply sympathize with the plight of the Lebanese citizens, I find it necessary to mention that Hezbollah brought this conflict on when they disregarded Israel's sovreignity and ambushed a guard station during a time of declared peace, kidnapping two soldiers and executing the rest.

Israel is fully within its rights to do these things.

This destruction rests soley on the hands of those who will not return the captured Israelis.

^^and because of a terrorist group and 2 soldiers Israel has the right to do a terrorism act and kill people ?
oh yea...typical western way of thinking....

we don't need ur deep sympathize .....

That statement is so contradictory. If you think Israel is fully within its rights to do these things, then you can not possibly "deeply sympathize" with the plight of the Lebanese citizens.

These are actions that have to do with the creation of "nation" states. Israel, like the United States, doesn't care about the Geneva convention, nor do they care about the innocent lives they slaughter in the name of freedom any more than the terrorists they so claim to be fighting against. Israel is in the position of strategic domination of the Middle East, and are provided with funds and weapons from the United States to do so. If the United States attempted to do anything about conflicts in the Middle East, it would prosecute Sharon for war crimes and halt any further shipments of weapons of warfare, including bulldozers and other tractor equipment knowingly sold by Caterpillar. This would have much more of an impact than waging war with a third-world, primarily defenseless country like Iraq. It might anger people who, for reasons of bigotry, support the nation state of Israel, but then again, nationalism is a global disgrace.

If Israel has a problem with Lebanon, just be honest about it and make the war official. Don't pretend that you are specifically targeting Hezbollah while killing and injuring many others. It's not ok to destroy buildings just because you think somebody from Hezbollah may be inside.

For the record, I have the same problems with the actions of the US government as well. Faced with opportunities to take a moral high ground, the US government has turned its cheek and refused to do it.

Cut Israel some slack. Oh wait, you're bible specifically says they must be obliterated from the face of the earth.

Won't you people wake up and realize they have been negotiating with these turds for 30 years. One assassinated Rabin and thousands of deaths later, they're tired and fed up with it. Israel are certainly within their right to attack Lebanon.

30 years? Hezbollah was founded in 1982. You're out of your mind.

I was referring to the Camp David Accords when this whole genocidal manicide attention whorism hobby was taken up by middle easterners.

Yes, but even according to Israel this is only about Hezbollah. So, you need to put that Camp David Accords card back in your hand.

you are being stupid. noone in this thread has mentioned religion, and rabin was assassinated by an israeli jew.

Blatant disregard for capitalization, punctuation, and spelling. You have no place here.

edit: Not to mention your resort to petty name calling!

blatant disregard for capitalisation is better at least than blatant disregard for any semblance of truth. petty name calling? i was simply pointing out the gross stupidity of your post. nothing petty about it. i could even have commented on your blatant racism had i felt the inclination.
