"THANK YOU, ISRAEL!" -- Exiled Lebanese Christians Speak Out From The Diaspora
Iconoclast ^ | By Brigitte Gabriel

Posted on 07/18/2006 5:36:48 PM PDT by Apolitical

"Thank you Israel," is the sentiment echoing from around the world from the millions of Christian Lebanese, driven out of our homeland. The Lebanese Foundation for Peace, an international group of Lebanese Christians, made the following statement in a press release to Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert concerning the latest Israeli attacks against Hezbollah:

"We urge you to hit them hard and destroy their terror infrastructure. It is not [only] Israel who is fed up with this situation, but the majority of the silent Lebanese in Lebanon who are fed up with Hezbollah and are powerless to do anything out of fear of terror retaliation....."

Zec 12:6 In that day will I make the governors of Judah like an hearth of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire in a sheaf; and they shall devour all the people round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem.

Lebanon was once the banking capital of the Near East and then the barbarian invaded .....Arafat and his PLO butchers. Arafat , Syria and their Iranian backed Shi'ite gangs destroyed a beautiful nation.

According to Fr Nassif, approximately 300 Christian villages were destroyed between 1983 and 1985, during the war in Lebanon. In his diocese of Saida, Fr. Nassif said, 50 parishes were demolished.

Remember Damour!

Israeli forces are repaying the Hizballah killers after years and years of Iranian & Syrian proxie terrorism on northern Israeli towns & villages. Israel is also greatly assisting the U.S. also in removing the very filth which murdered the U.S. Marines plus responsible for the hostage taking of numerous American diplomats, many of which were tortured and murdered.

I think that is like asking you why you aren't stopping illegals from crossing our southern border? Hmmm? Well? Why aren't YOU doing it?

You be sure and let me know as soon as we allow convoys of trucks thru our borders carrying short range missiles and setting up Mexican bases in Tucson that then send thousand of missiles into Phoenix. Are you really this stupid?

That's pretty easy to say when you live in the US. I'll cut them a little slack, since I haven't lived under fear of death because I said the wrong thing. susie

Who are you kidding? Yourself? Have you forgotten 9/11? If Lebanon said, "don't kill us and we will let you attack Israel", I have absolutely no respect for Lebanon.

I always thought the Arab Christians still in the ME suffered from a sort of Stockholm syndrome.

Arab Christians were there first so it's not as if they were the hostages, it is their home, where should they go? The radical Muslims are just a barbaric, evil virus that oozed through the ME.

So instead of answering the question you throw insults. Do you really think the illegals pouring into our country aren't bringing in terrorists along with them? Is your head in the sand to that fact? Do you think they are all innocents looking for jobs? Do you really think they are no threat to our country and our way of life? Do you think none of them murder Americans while they are here? None of them kill our children? None of them live off our government services? Or do American lives only count if taken by a missile? Why aren't YOU stopping them I ask again?

A large number of the Christian militia was killed during the civil war. When Syria came in, it was almost impossible for them to drive them out. I consider it a miracle that they stood up last year and forced the Syrians out.

I wouldn't even begin to know how to get an entrenched, heavily armed terrorist group out of an area. As we can see on the news, even with fighter planes, bombs, and artillery, Israel is having a tough time gettting them to leave.

I'm not concerned at all over those that will bend over forwards for a terrorist.

I meant to include this in my last post to you. I think you got lost in the minutia of the analogy and missed the bigger point. If you look at America we are pretty much bending over forwards for a terrorist by not stopping them at our borders. Thus the actions you so greatly judge the innocents in Lebanon for we ourselves are just as guilty of.

Not kidding a soul. If you think things in the US are equal to things in Lebanon, that's certainly you're right.

I think you need to take it to a immigration thread rather then this one. You are comparing apples to oranges here. I see Lebanon has sided with Hezbollah when they say they will attack Israel if it puts troops in on the ground in Lebanon. The same goverment that says they are too weak to resist Syrian involvement in their territory, but will make an announcement that they will fight Israel is as bogas a two dollar bill.
