(Lunatic Leftie) Kofi Annan shows his stripes/NYDaily

[White_Male_Canada]

The United States, in the person of Condoleezza Rice, continues to stand firm against an international community motivated more by intense bias against the State of Israel than by any desire for real Mideast peace, no matter what distorted pronouncements emanate from a Rome summit - or from the United Nations, in the person of Secretary General Kofi Annan.

The big glass house by the East River has long nourished an anti-Israel predisposition. But rarely have the UN's leanings been more outrageously on display than they were Tuesday, when Annan accused the Israeli military of "apparently deliberately targeting" a UN post in Lebanon after an errant rocket killed four observers.

It defies reason and humanity to believe Israel determined to launch a lethal attack against the world body, but that was Annan's impulse, one obviously rooted in the animus that informs virtually all he says and does regarding Israel. He is among the leading voices calling on a country besieged by terrorism to lay down its arms before those who would destroy it. And he is among those who, unbelievably, charge Israel with disproportionate use of force.

Since Hezbollah provoked the fight with a bloody cross-border kidnapping, Israel has dropped 40,000 shells on Lebanon, killing roughly 400 people - a figure that testifies to Israeli restraint. Yet Annan is appalled, putting him in the same camp as the top Hezbollah man who admitted he never expected such Israeli fury.

Annan's accusations against Israel are all the more odious because he is the chief of an organization that failed to implement Security Council Resolution 1559, which passed three years ago demanding the disbanding and disarmament of all militias in Lebanon and the control of the Lebanese government over all territory. If the UN had carried through, Hezbollah attacks would have long ended.

Instead, the terrorists' noncompliance was ignored by all, including the peacekeeping forces the UN has had in southern Lebanon since 1978. Rather than make Hezbollah disband and disarm (Israel's objective today), for years the UN let the killers run wild and stockpile thousands of long-range weapons.

So, defying calls for a premature ceasefire in Lebanon, Secretary of State Rice yesterday reiterated this country's stance that there shall be "no return to the status quo," in which Hezbollah, armed by Syria and Iran, rained rockets and missiles on Israel at will.

Hezbollah can never again control the Lebanese borderlands with Israel. Jerusalem, backed by Washington, seeks a 1.2-mile deep buffer zone at the border. A Hezbollah-free zone. And no firing shall cease until that minimum goal is met.

But who to patrol such an area, to ensure against Hezbollah infestation? That is a major sticking point, since the nations aren't rushing to enlist, and Israel is wary of giving the mission to the UN. Can you blame it? No, because the UN helped put it in jeopardy and would keep it there. Provided it survives, of course.

YOU ARE NOTHING BUT A GOOD OLE' HYPOCRITE, IN THE CLOSET, YELLOW COCKSUCKER WHO LIKES TO TAKE IT IN THE ARSE, SWALLOW JIZZ, then politely wipe your mouth go home and kiss your wife- and then HAVE NERVE to talk shit about the homos and all the other rhetoric the right wing loves to spew out.

I know this type very well, because I have lived it. Believe you me, the ones out there talking shit about fags, trannys, rasing hell, fire, and brimstome, and trying to dictate morality- are the first ones to go suck a cock behind closed doors.

Iraq breaks with U.S. and assails Israeli raids

By EDWARD WONG and MICHAEL SLACKMAN
Published: July 20, 2006


BAGHDAD, Iraq, July 19 — Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki of Iraq on Wednesday forcefully denounced the Israeli attacks on Lebanon, marking a sharp break with President Bush’s position and highlighting the growing power of a Shiite Muslim identity across the Middle East.

“The Israeli attacks and airstrikes are completely destroying Lebanon’s infrastructure,” Mr. Maliki said at an afternoon news conference inside the fortified Green Zone, which houses the American Embassy and the seat of the Iraqi government. “I condemn these aggressions and call on the Arab League foreign ministers’ meeting in Cairo to take quick action to stop these aggressions. We call on the world to take quick stands to stop the Israeli aggression.”

The American Embassy did not provide an immediate response.

The comments by Mr. Maliki, a Shiite Arab whose party has close ties to Iran, were noticeably stronger than those made by Sunni Arab governments in recent days. Those governments have refused to take an unequivocal stand on Lebanon, reflecting their concern about the growing influence of Iran, which has a Shiite majority and has been accused by Israel of providing weapons to Hezbollah, the Lebanese Shiite militant group.

Top Shiite politicians in Iraq have myriad connections to Iran. Many officials in Maliki's political group, the Islamic Dawa Party, fled into exile there to escape persecution by Saddam Hussein.

Maliki also has other ties to pro- Hezbollah leaders in the region.

He spent most of his 23 years in exile in Syria, where he ran the Damascus branch of the Dawa Party. Syria supports Hezbollah and Hamas, the militant group that now leads the Palestinian government.

please, please, please will someone show me what a DD-214 looks like? I'm a canadian chickenhawk who shills for the neocon chickenhawks in the white house, and none of my chickenhawk idols have one...

I guess I'll just save this link, pinhead...that way every time you try to change the subject by pleading to see my DD-214(while trying to make yourself feel better about your chickenhawk status)... I'll just post this link...maybe then you will have to answer to your flip-flops instead of desperately trying to change the subject...

And enough with the DD-214 nonsense. A DD-214 contains personal information such as a social security number and a military service number. No sane person would post their DD-214 on a public bulletin board. He would be begging to be the victim of identity theft

As myself and others have stated before, only a fool like yourself would post a personal doc like that on the internet...but then again you wouldn't know about that, would you? What with you being a chickenhawk who constantly defends the neocon chickenhawks in the white house...did you even serve in the cub scouts?

Maybe you should ask your hero the dick where his dd-214 is, pinhead...

I love how killing over 400 civilians is an example of restraint. 14 Israeli civilians have been killed in this conflict and that is a major tragedy. But for anyone to classify the killing of 400+ civilians as restraint truly demonstrates a torturing of logic to the point of absurdity. Or do they count less because they are Lebanese? I am just curious

Yeahh. Way too difficult to edit out your SS number now is it. That`s just too difficult a task and makes it impossible to post your dd214.
It`s impossible because you`re a fuckin` phony.

That and you`re just so fuckin` stupid it`s beyond incredible.

``Chicken hawk" isn't an argument. It is a slur -- a dishonest and incoherent slur. It is dishonest because those who invoke it don't really mean what they imply -- that only those with combat experience have the moral authority or the necessary understanding to advocate military force. After all, US foreign policy would be more hawkish, not less, if decisions about war and peace were left up to members of the armed forces. Soldiers tend to be politically conservative, hard-nosed about national security, and confident that American arms make the world safer and freer. On the question of Iraq -- stay-the-course or bring-the-troops-home? -- I would be willing to trust their judgment. Would Cindy Sheehan and Howard Dean?

The cry of ``chicken hawk" is dishonest for another reason: It is never aimed at those who oppose military action. But there is no difference, in terms of the background and judgment required, between deciding to go to war and deciding not to. If only those who served in uniform during wartime have the moral standing and experience to back a war, then only they have the moral standing and experience to oppose a war. Those who mock the views of ``chicken hawks" ought to be just as dismissive of ``chicken doves."

People who toss around that slur mindlessly endorse the idea of military autocracy over a broad representative democracy. Only in juntas do we see societies where military experience is a prerequisite in determining the policies of a nation. The same people who sling this insult are the first to turn around and call their political opponents "fascists", exposing an intellectual shallowness that colors the rest of their writings.
