I told her that Israel has fought a sanitized war, and that they forewarn the Lebanese when and where they will strike, and that the Lebanese allowed Hezbollah to build villages on top of their weapons sites, knowing that Israel would strike them, and that they could then cry bloody murder. Any other comments???

Well, if you were a Dem, you could "embrace multiculturalism" and behead them.
But I'm afraid I don't have anything useful to contribute.

The killings at Qana (28 killed, not 60) seem highly suspect, especially given the macabre "parade of corpses" that seemed to take place on that Sunday morning.
Others more knowledgeable will bring you up to speed, but your friend has swallowed the media portrayal of this incident whole.

There is a lot of opinion that this is not Cana, of the first miracle. See Wikipedia entry for Cana.

It sounds as though you're doing pretty well, actually. Are you Catholic?

By the way, most scholars locate Cana of New Testament near Nazareth, in Israel, not with the Cana in Lebanon.

And second, on Sunday morning, July 30, 2006, when an Israeli rocket killed 60 people, including 37 children.This body count has been refuted by even anti-Israeli sources (Human Rights Watch).
The reality of the situation is that Hezzbollah chooses to wage war from civilian areas in order to push up the civilian casualties and force an early end to fighting.
If the Israeli military refused to target Hezzbollah for this reason then the terrorists would be able to fire from these "havens" with impunity.
Israel's right to self defense cannot be argued and Israel must try to stop the rocket attacks on their people.

First I would establish whether you are discussing how wars are or should be fought, or are you only being forced to defend the fact that Jews are presently engaged in war.
Is this guy just using this to attack the Jewish action or is he truly interested in the barbarity of war.
People will use a lot of different paths to keep making their true bottom line attack.

To: ruthles
One thing: No lies or is it "You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor."
The so called civilian deaths that the press and the Islamic terrorist are espousing, in my humble opinion, are just lies or they are false witness against Israel.
So you should ask why she is worried about the so called civilians who (may not be civilians)or are put in harms way by the Islamic terrorist and not the civilians in Israel who are deliberately targeted by the Islamic terrorist and have been blown up for the past several years by homicide bombers and rockets.

Israel will return it to its pristine 2 millennium old roots, a featureless landscape, removing all the 'modern' buildings that have since cluttered the holy spot.

Cana is not in South Lebanon, It is in North Israel, a couple of hill's walk from Nazareth, where Christ lived with his family. They walked to that wedding that day, you know. Undoubtedly Cana has been struck by rockets but fired by hezbollah. Many of the residents of Cana are Israeli arabs. I have been there and have a bottle of "Cana wedding wine" (at least the arab who sold it to me assured me it was :-)
So the first thing I would do for your friend is to educate him on geography. Then, history.

So because Cana is mentioned in the Bible that somehow absolves the modern residence of their crimes of harboring and aiding terrorists?

Joel 3:
18 In that day
the mountains will drip with sweet wine,
and the hills will flow with milk.
All the streams of Judah will flow with water,
and a spring will issue from the Lord's house,
watering the Valley of Acacias. 19 Egypt will become desolate,
and Edom a desert wasteland,
because of the violence [done] to the people of Judah
in whose land they shed innocent blood. 20 But Judah will be inhabited forever,
and Jerusalem from generation to generation. 21 I will pardon their bloodguilt,
[which] I have not pardoned,
for the Lord dwells in Zion.

Why is Israel bombing Lebanese cities, villages, bridges, roads and killing innocent men, women and children in the south and north, east and west of Lebanon? Why did you welcome Hezbollah to your roads, your bridges, your cities and villages. Your friendship has cost you all of those things! I ask you.....why do you blame Israel for what you have done to your cities, villages, bridges, roads, innocent men, women and children in the south and north, east and west.

Any Lebanese Christian would be well familiar with the atrocities perpetrated on them in the past by their own mulism residents and would probably not carry this tone. I am surprised by it. Lebanon used to be a Christian country till the muslims started moving in with their multiple wives and out bred them.

Tell her not to bother you for help when the muzzies are about to slit her throat. If she is really Christian, she should know you don't make deals with the Devil, and expect to survive.
Cowardice is no excuse!
