- To deafening shouts of "Death to America," the leader of a Lebanese guerrilla group today said US conceit and foolishness will lead to its own demise.

He's one to talk. America has existed for well over 200 years and has gotten better with each year. Lebanon, as well as the rest of the middle east, is a basket case and has remained so for hundreds of years. Physician, heal thyself.

Quite a few months ago, before 9/11, I was browsing around the net researching this nutcase Nasrallah, and there is no shortage of photos showing him nuzzling up to the likes of Khateimi (sp Iran) and Kofi Annan (United Nasties). These people (term used loosly) are getting vocal now because they know their number is going to come up shortly. Yes Mr Nasrallah, we've got a list, and we're checking it twice.

US is 'conceited, haughty, arrogant'

We're proud too.

"Hizbullah leader: US is 'conceited, haughty, arrogant'"

No, we are: rich, good, and very powerful. The next time you answer your cellphone and say hello be prepared for a message to look out your window, watch the Osama coming in and say goodbye. Hello, goodbye.

Does his outburst mean he didn't like President Bush's speech to the UN yesterday? :^)

[cayman99]

So,what's his point?????????

[hsszionist]

I don't think the little black stone god(allah) will afford the Hizbullah much protection in the coming days.

[NeonKnight]

The Americans are behaving in a conceited, haughty and arrogant manner, not in a sane manner

Ok...so whats your point?

[isthisnickcool]

This fellow with the depressed IQ might consider how lucky he is that America does not comport itself as Islam does. He might wonder what the world would look like if America decided that everything must me American or dead. That's the Islam message. Everything must be Islam or die.

The thing he left off his list is the word "mad". He should have added "angry". Any other attacks on the US and we will become mad. This fool better understand what will happen if we get furious. He and his ilk have not even seen us draw our swords yet. Maybe they will if they keep jacking around wih us. If they do, they may find that they might be praying 5 times a day to nothing but scorched earth.

Out of their own mouths their fate is foretold, just as scripture predicts. For it is they that are arrogant, reveling in a destructive and self-destructive Koranic "scholarship" that leads nowhere but to unending poverty, hopelessness, lack of opportunity and death, fixated upon returning a medieval type of totalitarian theocracy which most desire to leave and very few immigrate to.

...the leader of a Lebanese guerrilla group today said US conceit and foolishness will lead to its own demise.

...whose words were spoken in front of a backdrop of ruins which was once a shining city. These are not the kind of people who can lecture Americans on civilization.

He's just upset because he thought he had the monopoly on that sort of thing.

And soon you may be silent, dead, and radioactive.

Nasrallah is pulling on the tail of a sleeping lion. What a fool.

[DittoJed2]

Yeah, like Hizbullah can stand and make moral judgments!

[etcetera]

Hey! America has lots to be conceited about. After all, if you had the accomplishments that America has, you'd be conceited, too. Unfortunately, all you Arabs have are oil, terrorists, bigotry, misogeny, and a 7th century religion which isn't looking so good these days.

"The United States gives itself the right to categorize the people and governments of the world as terrorists and terrorist supporters. It gives itself the right to define terrorism ."

That's right, we do.

Nasrallah, bin Laden, Saddam, and the rest of them play the Arabic shell game with the truth. By their statements, they betray their flawed belief that reality is subjective and can be whatever they wish it to be at any point in time. Clearly, they lack any knowledge of Aristotle's Law of Identity.

=========

Identity is the concept that refers to this aspect of existence; the aspect of existing as something in particular, with specific characteristics. An entity without an identity cannot exist because it would be nothing. To exist is to exist as something, and that means to exist with a particular identity.

To have an identity means a single identity; an object cannot have two identities. A tree cannot be a telephone, and a dog cannot be a cat. Each entity exists as something specific, its identity is particular, and it cannot exist as something else. An entity can have more than one characteristic, but any characteristic it has is a part of its identity. A car can be both blue and red, but not at the same time or not in the same respect. Whatever portion is blue cannot be red at the same time, in the same way. Half the car can be red, and the other half blue. But the whole car can't be both red and blue. These two traits, blue and red, each have single, particular identities.

The concept of identity is important because it makes explicit that reality has a definite nature. Since reality has an identity, it is knowable. Since it exists in a particular way, it has no contradictions.

========

In other words, the Hizbullah are terrorists.

[wimpycat]

The Americans are behaving in a conceited, haughty and arrogant manner,

Yep, and you'll feel the back of our hand a few times before we squash you under our heel like a bug.

Nasrallah said Bush was "threatening the entire world from under the dome of the United Nations," adding that world leaders sat facing him "like schoolchildren."

You're right there, Mr. Nasrallah. When world leaders act like schoolchildren, they'll be treated like schoolchildren.

"The United States gives itself the right to categorize the people and governments of the world as terrorists and terrorist supporters. It gives itself the right to define terrorism ... At the same time, (US) warplanes were killing 300 civilians in Kabul and Kandahar," he said.

When you're the most powerful nation in the world, you will have the right to do the same.

Hizbullah leader: US is 'conceited, haughty, arrogant'

He is right! We are.

And we also have one kick as military.

So if this moron had an ounce of brains he would be trying to make nice nice instead of baiting the bear.

All he is going to achieve with this sort of thing is speeding up appointment with allah.
