The IDF warned Lebanese civilians to evacuate villages (July 25)
with the following message and pics dropped from the sky:
"To all citizens south of the Litani River
Due to the terror activities being carried out against the State of Israel
from within your villages and homes, the IDF is forced to respond immediately
against these activities, even within your villages. For your safety!
We call upon you to evacuate your villages and move north of the Litani River."

The State of Israel
"He who says he is protecting you,
is really robbing you."

---

Many hours AFTER the Israeli airstrike against terrorists,
a nearby building collapsed or exploded in what appears to be a planned
act by Hizb'allah. Dead children were bused in by Hizb'allah from the nearby morgue, and
may have used other children as additional sacrifices to add to the civilian hostages ("shields")
kept and held by Hizbollah. There was never enough bodies, and the posters
were already printed so the numbers were inflated as other children were brought for this terror-PR attack by
the religion of Ba'al (infamous in the ancient Bekaa valley for sacrificial murders
of children by fire).
In these pics, it appears by date stamp that the terrorists, seeing too few were killed
brought in children, with clothes and skin free of dirt, absrasions, dust,
and smoke.

---

Note the young apparently ill girl with clean orange shirt. She has a blanket not a body bag.
Her shirt is dirty later, after she was "found" covered in dust, blackened, like her body now.
Observers on the scene also noted that a few of the "found" children
had rigor mortis, lividity, and other changes, which indicated death much earlier
and at a different location. The children murdered by Hizballah were someones sons and daughters.

---

The terrorists "found" convenient "proof" of who did the bombings
which most agree was caused by the Hizb'allah after Israeli precise bombing missed
the targets which Hizb'allah WANTED hit.

---

BEHIND ENEMY LINES:

In Qana and in Beirut and elsewhere around the country
Hizb'allah terrorists produced a two story banner in minutes
after their own bombs brought down a house in Qana murdering
(in addition to their civilian shield deaths by forcing noncombatants
to remain in positions from which they fired missiles into Israel)
children they had brought into Qana.

The glossy banner, which must have taken days to prepare,
produce and transport, falsely blamed US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice,
was entitled "The massacre of children in Qana 2".
This is PROOF that Qana was planned by ... Hizb'allah ahead of time.

---

========= UN headquarters =========

In Lebanon, near and at the UN headquarters,
Syrian, Iranian and Lebanese terrorists broke into the United Nations headquarters
in Beirut on Sunday, smashing windows and ransacking offices
Note that the entire scene was being watched at a distance including by the
planners themselves who had a busy week in the PR branch of their Jihad.

Iranian President Ahmadinejad Addresses Rally & Warns the U.S. & England: The Fire of the Wrath of the Peoples is About to Erupt & Overflow & the People Will Soon Rage; Today the Iranian People is the Owner of Nuclear Technology



The following are excerpts from a rally with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, which aired on the Iranian News Channel (IRINN) on August 1, 2006.
TO VIEW THIS CLIP: http://www.memritv.org/search.asp?ACT=S9&P1=1216


Mahmoud Ahmadinejad: "Look, they are destroying homes with the people inside. They are burning fields. Neither children nor adults are safe from them. With laser-guided bombs, they attack shelters of defenseless women and children, leaving them in a pool of their blood."

Crowd: "Death to Israel."

"Death to Israel."

"Death to Israel."

"Death to Israel."

"Death to Israel."

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad: "They have no boundaries, limits, or taboos when it comes to killing human beings. Who are they? Where did they come from? Are they human beings? 'They are like cattle, nay, more misguided.' A bunch of bloodthirsty barbarians. Next to them, all the criminals of the world seem righteous."

[...]

"They are a bunch of Zionists. Where have they come from? As you know, the rule of hegemony and the web of colonialism strived to establish a base in the heart of the Middle East. A hundred years ago, they began to devise conspiracies on the basis of a diabolical plan. Bit by bit they arrived, and backed by the devious, deceiving England, they sneaked people in, and placed them in control over the people of Palestine. Sixty years ago, by means of a highly complex plan involving psychology, politics, and propaganda, and by means of weapons, they managed to establish a false regime in the heart of the Middle East. At first they claimed: 'Since some of those [Jews] lost their families in World War II, and were killed by the German government, we must give them a land.' They established a regime, and placed them here. Afterwards, we saw that they did not make do with [the Jews] who presumably were harmed in the war. They gathered people from all over the world, brought them here, and turned them into the landlords. They expelled more than five million Palestinians from their homes with weapons and with oppression. They gathered people from all over the world, and imposed them here. Our question was: 'If these people were harmed in Europe, why do you want to compensate them out of the pockets of the people of Palestine, and with their honor and their land?' Then they claimed that these are people whose forefathers had lived in this land 2,500 years ago, and that they should therefore be the rulers of this land. We say to them that if we were to accept this principle, and were to apply it throughout the world, all the political borders in today's world would change.

"We ask you: Who lived on the land of America 250 or 300 years ago? Don't the rulers of America today rule because of the massacre of the native Americans? If we accept the principle that anybody whose forefathers ever lived on any land 2,000 or 3,000 years ago should rule today, then America should be ruled by the native Americans who are there today. There is proof that they existed. There are films, photos, documents, maps, and their descendants."

Crowd: "Death to America

"Death to America"

"Death to America"

"Death to America"

"Death to America"

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad: "They established a regime, aimed at threatening, trespassing, murdering, and pillaging. They established this regime so that the peoples of the region would never be tranquil. They threaten everybody. Even if a country wants to make scientific progress, they have the nerve to prevent its scientific progress under the pretext that the safety of the regime that occupied Jerusalem would be threatened by this scientific progress."

[...]

"They established that regime so that it would constitute a constant threat, and would prepare the ground for the control of the rule of hegemony, and so that they would be able to impose agreements on the people. As you know, some of the countries in our region made armament deals worth more than 150 billion dollars with America and England, under the pretext of the regime that occupied Jerusalem. Since they are under America's control, they never used these weapons against the regime that occupied Jerusalem."

[...]

"It is totally obvious from what is going on that this plan was made a long time ago. The Americans failed to implement their Greater Middle East policy. They thought that by attacking and occupying Lebanon, they would be able to revive the dead plan to establish a Greater Middle East. That is why they attacked. As you can see, their crimes know no limits.

"I hereby declare: The world must know that America and England are accomplices to each and every one of the crimes of the regime that has occupied Jerusalem. They must be held accountable."

[...]

"Look at the international organizations. We used to say that these organizations are a tool in the hands of some of the great powers, and we were told we were being pessimistic. Look at the Security Council. It was established to bring about security. But as you can see, whenever the proposal for a ceasefire is raised, the Security Council – which is responsible for security, and which should welcome the cease-fire proposal – is, unfortunately, opposed to the cease-fire proposal and to preventing the killing of women and children. I hereby declare: This behavior of the Security Council is a mark of eternal shame on the forehead of the U.N. and those who control it."

[...]

"Everybody knows that this regime [Israel] can do nothing without the orders and backing of America and its intimate friend, England. That's why we have declared these two regimes are responsible for all the crimes of the insubordinate Zionist regime."

[...]

"It is inconceivable that they allow themselves to make decisions to attack and totally destroy a certain country, and then, on the basis of a few agreements, they bring groups from the countries supporting this corrupt regime [Israel], and deploy them along the borders, in order to oppress the people of the region even more. They must know that those days are over. The peoples have awoken.

"The Lebanese scene is like a mirror. It displays the criminal essence of the rule of hegemony and the false claims of the great powers to support human rights, freedom, and democracy. At the same time, it exhibits the oppression of the Lebanese people.

"Today, Hizbullah in Lebanon is the standard-bearer of the resistance of all the monotheistic peoples, of the seekers of justice, and of the free people. Hassan Nasrallah is shouting the loud cry of the vigilant human consciences. Today, Hizbullah stands tall as the representative of all the peoples, all the vigilant consciences, all the monotheistic people, all the seekers of justice, and all free people of the world, against the rule of hegemony. Until now, with the help of Allah, [Hizbullah] is winning, and, Allah willing, it will reach the ultimate victory in the near future."

[...]

"I hereby demand that all the peoples declare their position regarding these crimes. It is inconceivable for people to play a double game in the Middle East and Lebanon. On the one hand, they maintain cooperation and economic and political ties with the Zionist criminals, and on the other hand, they wish to appear as supporters of human rights, of the oppressed, and of peace. They all must declare their position. I call upon all the governments to remove the restrictions upon their peoples. The peoples have become vigilant today, and are studying the scene with precision and awareness. The peoples are keeping record of the behavior of all the governments, the officials, and the groups. All these crimes are engraved on the hearts of the peoples. Soon, the people will begin to move, and, Allah willing, they will drag these criminals to the defendant's bench."

[...]

"I declare, before all the dear people of Bojnourd, that in light of America and England's behavior, it has become clear that they don't have what it takes to participate in international forums. They don't have what it takes to sit in the Security Council, and to have a right of veto. They themselves are guilty and criminal, and they must be placed on trial."

[...]

"When I see the behavior of America, England, and their other accomplices in recent days, I get the impression that they are preparing even greater crimes. I warn them: Know that the fire of the wrath of the peoples is about to erupt and overflow. If you do not put an end to your crimes, know that the ocean of the peoples will soon rage. When the peoples begin to move, they will drag everybody to the defendant's bench, and will remove them from the throne of power."

[...]

"Today, the Iranian people is the owner of nuclear technology. Those who want to talk with our people should know what people they are talking to. If some believe they can keep talking to the Iranian people in the language of threats and aggressiveness, they should know that they are making a bitter mistake. If they have not realized this by now, they soon will, but then it will be too late. Then they will realize that they are facing a vigilant, proud people."

The 2000lbs bomb BSU balloon is also called a ballut. Balluts fit on big bombs and CBUs (Big Bombs that scatter lotsa little Combined Effect Munitions) <incendiary, shaped charge and Shrapnel. A 2000lbs CBU might hold 200 such cluster units. The miniballuts for this assembly were built to DOD specs for Goodyear Aerospace by a former Long Island brassiere manufacturer with big back channels to our friends in Isreal. All this was about 20 years ago.

It looks like highly accurate precision guided tools make more sense than cluster bombs. Our targets are few and far between.

There's some good work here!

Your threads need to have a longer life than a few days. I know FR archives threads a few years, but are these photos copied to a safe spot before posting or are they left on the site that you found them?

You may not recognize it, but you’re uniquely documenting history. I’m not trying to blow wind up your skirt, but you have a bit of a poetic knack to your presentation, and it’s fairly original. Media students, art students or historians might one day want to go through some of your threads.

LOL - I was thinking that too.

[MotleyGirl70]

Bravo Dio. You're a gem.

From Seattle:

In Seattle, Pam Waechter, slaughterred by the latest Islamic murderer in yet another "Hate Crime", while federal and state authorities tell Americans to move on, as they ignore illegal terrorist aliens, ignore terrorism in America, to instead move the focus to Moslems writing "threats" on their own mosques.

Prayers sent for Pam Waechter's family and friends.

This cartoonist nailed it on the head with the reporting of this story by the MSM...

Pretty pathetic that Mel Gibson (a Hollywood actor/director) gets more media coverage than this terrible tragedy in Seattle did.

Sad. Very sad.
