If I didn't make it clear, that is what I think as well.
Fred, how can we get the staged photo'journalism' at Qana to the big guys? This point needs tipping. Today.
Yesterday, I turned on CNN just to see how they were covering this story.
During their story, they interviewed two different adult males of fighting age who stated to the effect "We told them to leave, but they were poor and could not". They were not identified as Hezbollah, but it was odd that both guys used the term "they" to refer to the civilians.
What the reporter did not say, was "Well, if you are Hezbollah (likely) and knew they could not leave, why did you choose to fire rockets from alongside their shelter?????"
I cynically believe Hez/Hizbollah WAS providing food and water for those poor folk. What better way to have fodder for Al-Jazeera, than to bring them all into the target zone? I'll bet it has happened more than once, and will happen again.
The roads to Qada were open, yet they didn't flee for 8 hours after the strike because they were "terrified?"
I'd roll my eyes, but it would hurt too much.
Robin Hezbollah and his Merry Men in the Lebanese Greenwood - versus the Evil Sheriff of Jewingham.
it seemed Hezbollah was helping these people, providing them with food and water. These were some of the [poorest] people in the town, those with money had already left. They were staying in this section of town because there was food and water.
They were the poorest in town, they were staying because of the food and water Hezb'ullah was giving them...
Connect the dots.
I'm also surprised that there were NO SURVIVORS, not one?
but there was a WHOLE bunch of Hez-Ebola there being all nice and peaceful like

Those that remain are either staying because they support Hezbollah, are part of Hezbollah, or because they simply do not have the ability to leave.
For those that are unable to leave, which this reporter feels are the majority of those remaining, what do you think their life expectancy would be if they were seen talking to a reporter about how Hezbollah is to blame for the violence and for innocents being killed?
Hezbollah is the closest thing to the law in that area. They have so little respect for the people of Lebanon that they use them as shields as the attack a far superior foe.
If these people spoke out against Hezbollah, they would be killed and their deaths would be blamed on Israel. The local officials who remain are part of Hezbollah, so they would report them as having been killed by Israelis.
Of course these people say they support Hezbollah, to do otherwise is a death sentence.
The village of Qana -- where Hezbollah turned slaughter into whine.
I get the impression that the MSM considers the good they are doing to include killing Jews.
Yeah, I guess they figured Israel didn't have enough ball bearings so they loaded them into their rockets and sent them over. How very thoughtful.
May I be the first to use the term "Hezbullywood"?
And no men found among the dead. Just women and children.
Excellent point...
I have forwarded the link to the story about the Canadian/Lebanese family with images - and the comparison photographs of the dead children of Canan - to the editor of a conservative Israeli website.

Great! Good for you Fred - I hope this story takes a turn, quickly.
I'll remember my Aussie FRiend who did their part to get the ball rolling and send you a crate of stubbies. ;o)
Our media is beyond despicable.
