Lebanonese Parliament Speaker (Nabih Berrir) has rejected Rice's proposals

From a Reuters article:

But Rice later told Shi'ite Muslim Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri, who is an ally of Hizbollah and is also close to Syria, that "the situation on the border cannot return to what it was before July 12," a Lebanese political source
said.

"If terrorists co-opt these institutions (hospitals, schools, mosques, etc) for military purposes, it is the responsibility of the indigent people to remove them or STFU when they are destroyed."

Co-opt them? Who do you think is building them?

et me run this up the flag pole.

Bahrain newspaper reported that in Sept. '06, Iran will need to start rationing gasoline, because of their lack of refining capacity. The leaders are concerned with the reaction of the public to this. The Parliament rejects spending more money to subsidize the cost of fuel dur in inflation concerns, inflation there currently running 12.1%. Sooooooo, are they in need of a distraction in their own country, who better than US/Israel to blaim.

I would have rather seen her go to Israel first,

Same here. She was supposed to go directly to Israel first, the Beirut stop was a "surprise visit." Makes me sick.

"Humanitarian aid" for Lebanon but not for Israel.

I don't like where this is going, but I didn't like the "Roadmap to Peace" either. Guess it's going to be more of the same.

"Oh, and I meant to add that I thought your original post without the link was very accurate."

"The Muslim response in America:"

That's funny. I had the same thought when I was reposting so the link would show. :)

The Muslim response = silence unless it is outrage over cartoons and the like.

Thanks for posting that reminder of Hizbollah's depravity and their declaration of war against the US that is decades old.

If Clinton were President, the MSM would be reminding the public of these murders ever hour on the hour.

"The package included a cease-fire, simultaneous with the deployment of the Lebanese army and an international force in south Lebanon and the removal of Hezbollah weapons from a buffer zone extending 30 kilometers from the Israeli border, said the official. He spoke on condition of anonymity because the talks were private."

I like Karen Hughes, but her job should be eliminated. "Secretary of American Muslim Appeasement."

I thought we didn't negotiate with terrorists?!

Except when those terrorists are targeting with Israel.
