PM Olmert: Kana is a Katyusha-Firing Center
CAGE ^ | 07.30.2006 [12:54] | Arutz Sheva

Today's attack on a building in Kana, which resulted in the deaths of over 60 civilians and a barrage of criticism against Israel, and Israel alone, appears to have been made possible by Hezbollah's old tactic cowardly hiding among the Lebanese population. And yet, we haven't heard a peep of condemnation directed at Hezbollah; as usual, it is Israel, which has already apologized, that is being accused of all sins possible, including "war crimes". Read the whole thing.

The responsibility for today's IDF attack on Kana lies with Hizbullah & Lebanon, Israel says, as the citizens were repeatedly warned to leave. Hundreds of Katyushas were fired from Kana at Israel.

The IDF Spokesman's office says that Hizbullah uses the civilians as "human shields," and many reports have been received attesting to the fact that Hizbullah does not allow the citizens to leave - despite many IDF warnings to do so.

Wasn't Cana where Jesus performed the miracle at the marriage feast?

Maybe the Lebanese will get the idea that the human-shield cowardice of the terrorists just does not work, and that it would be a good idea to rise up against these maggots and drive them out of Lebanon....just a thought that would save many lives both in Lebanon and in Israel.

What we have here is a failure to communicate... fearing the Hezzies over the IDF is a suckers bet. Didn't your Mama ever teach you to fear the one with the biggest stick?Kick them out if you have the will to do so, I fear the Islamo-facists have taken over too much of Lebanon for that to ever happen.

Yes, there's some dispute over whether this is the same Cana, though. Apparently several places have claim to the name or did so in the past.
