BEIRUT, April 9 (AFP) - Lebanese President Emile Lahoud called Tuesday for Israeli leaders to be hauled before the World Court in The Hague for committing "massacres" in the Palestinian territories.

He urged the international community "to take the initiative and refer the authors of these massacres before the International Court (of Justice) in The Hague for trial," in a statement distributed to the media.

"Israel's rejection of (UN) Security Council resolutions calling for it to withdraw immediately from the occupied Palestinian territories ... reflects its policy of collective genocide against the Palestinian people," he charged.

This is why worldwide democracy sucks:

It's like living in a country where 40% of the people would vote for Ralph Nader, and another 40% would vote for bin Laden.

Hey Emily , why don't you borrow a set of testes from one of those 10 year old palis, then go over there and do something. These Candy a$$ed Dick-tators crack me up, always needing a world court or outside political pressure to do what they don't have the balls to try on their own.

That's about right. And in that world, the other 20% had better be armed to the teeth!

Ah, to be in contempt of the World Court and have the World Marshalls come and take you to the World Jail. I used to dream of a One World... when I was 12 years old. Then I grew up.

Okay, and he could face charges for aiding and abetting criminals. Hamas, hezbollah, et al are all based there. See ya in court Lahoud.

Israel has the God given right to defend her borders and kill every terrorist and suicide bomber that crosser her borders or attacks her citizens. We go ballistic when terrorists attacked us, why shouldn't they have the same right to defend themselves?

I say, DAMN world opinion and give 'em hell. If they terrorists are all fired up about dying then speed up the process. ;o)

The ICC will go after Sharon, using the UN as police, which means the whole world will gang up on Israel. Seems like a story I read in a Book, I think. Some Guy comes along with an army on white horses and saves Israel. Oh well, Sharon will give up Israel and we'll all be happy :)
