Israeli Cluster Munitions Hit Civilians in Lebanon
Israel Must Not Use Indiscriminate Weapons
(Beirut, July 24, 2006) ? Israel has used artillery-fired cluster munitions in populated areas of Lebanon, Human Rights Watch said today. Researchers on the ground in Lebanon confirmed that a cluster munitions attack on the village of Blida on July 19 killed one and wounded at least 12 civilians, including seven children. Human Rights Watch researchers also photographed cluster munitions in the arsenal of Israeli artillery teams on the Israel-Lebanon border.

Now the REALLY cool thing about cluster bombs is that +/- 15% of the little bombs doesn't explode right away. Some can stay dormant for years and then (when you accidentally hit them with something) go off and blow you to... Well, see for yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URzQN...cluster%20bomb (Vietnamese guy of 24 who was accidentally killed by a left over cluster)
Who gives a toss right? I'm sure that the towelhead who will step on one of these things between now and say 2026 will be in one way or another related to Hezbollah...

Email this story
BEIRUT, Lebanon
Hezbollah said it fired a new rocket, called Khaibar-1, striking near the Israeli town of Afula, south of Haifa. Israeli authorities reported that five rockets hit fields outside Afula, causing no casualties.
The strike came two days after Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah said in a televised speech that Hezbollah would start a new phase in the battle striking beyond the Israeli city of Haifa, which has been hit several times in lethal rocket fire.
The area around Afula, 30 miles south of the Israeli-Lebanese border area, has been struck before, but Israeli security officials said Friday's attacks were the southernmost so far.dead, yet alive.Comment

IAF takes out launcher used to fire missiles at Afula area
By Ze'ev Schiff and Amos Harel, Haaretz Correspondents, and Agencies
Israel Air Force warplanes on Friday took out the launchers used by Hezbollah to fire a new kind of missile at the Afula area, the furthest south that the guerilla group has reached since it began battering the north of Israel more than two weeks ago.
The initial investigation revealed that the missile has a range of 90 kilometers. The northern district police said that this kind of missile had not landed in the area before. The level of damage caused by the missile impact and the size of the warhead is also unprecedented, suggesting that it could have weighed up to 100 kilograms.
Security officials are looking into the possibility that the missile could have originated in Iran, and may even be a Zelzal missile, which has a range of up to 200 kilometers. Hezbollah has moved some of its rocket and missile launchers further north inside Lebanon following IAF attacks to destroy them.

Re: Are we on the brink of WWIII ?
lets not forget those in africa and kashmir. they are still up to it.
so when is everyone going to realize that these armed groups are a real problem that need to be attacked since they are not willing to negotiate with anyone. all they are doing is violently taking over regions and imposing sharia. this is terrible and spreading before our eyes, yet no one cares.your life is an occasion, rise to it.

F*ck Nostradamus. Just think about this: Where in the time line of human civilization has there been more than 100 years of world-wide peace? Never. It is just a matter of time before all hell breaks lose and destruction opens the door for a new era.

yup, that info has been confirmed in the mean time.Originally posted by Jenks
So Iran is supplying missiles to Hezbollah... Meanwhile the US has been shipping laser guided bombs to Israel. Not pro or con'ing, just asking myself what the big deal is.Comment

Not that I'm really suprised that you can't see the difference, but let me explain it to you in simple terms.Originally posted by KinKyJ
Under UNSC Res 1559 Hizbollah, an illegal militia in Lebanon, should have been disarmed. That means NO WEAPONS. Now see the difference?

Dude, it's not because I'm not jewish that I'm a retard, hokey?Originally posted by davetlv
I know about the resolution and I think it should be enforced hic et nunc for the sake of Israel as well as for the future of Lebanon.
However, no matter how much we agree on that, our leaders don't really seem to be on the same page. I think that was quite clear after the weak results of the Rome Conference.
Apart from that, it isn't really very relevant either with regard to what I said. I was looking at the reality of things: whether there are 20 resolutions or none, the fact is that there's a war going on. The point I was making was that all of a sudden everybody is "surprised" when Iran made rockets are being launched. That was to be expected. Israel has its allies and so do those criminals.
Anyway, two new remarks: one for David to respond to, one general...
1) So we're approaching week 3 of the hostilities. That means that Israel has been shelling Hezbollah positions (let's keep it at that) non stop for two weeks now. Result: a lot of damage to infrastructure, but that seems to be it. On the side Hezbollah is still launching shitloads of missiles at Israel. So when you know that Hezbollah is playing the guerilla tactics card and launches from mobile installations, the reality on the field proves the theory that taking them out with bombardements and air strikes is near impossible. So my question is: why doesn't the IDF move in and fight the mofos on the ground? Not criticism, mind you, just a question.
2) On a general note, I'm seeing parallels with what happened in the Balkan during the war in Bosnia. I'm talking about how the international community responds to the crisis. I have the impression that there are lot of fancy statements made, but that once again everybody is watching from the sidelines, scratching their mincy faggot balls... In the beginning of the conflict, I didn't think an intervention was a good idea. Now that Israel is using toys like cluster bombs and Hezbollah got their hands on missiles with a 100kg payload, I think the time is right for either the UN or NATO to send in armed forces. I didn't say "peace keeping forces" as I think the international troops should do two things: protect the civilian population and most important, disarm Hezbollah.
Btw with all the fireworks in Lebanon and the region of Haifa, people seem to be overlooking the fact that in Gaza the hosilities are still going on too...Comment

Re: Are we on the brink of WWIII ?
KinKy, you asked what the big deal was about Iran supplying Hizbollah with missiles whilst Israel buys weapons from the USA. . . . one is a nation state the other is an illegal militia. Now if Iran had been selling weapons to the Lebanese government then that would have been entirely different.
As for fighting on the ground. . . simple. For the past two years Hizbollah have been building their position in Southern Lebanon. Tunnels, hide-outs etc. Unlike Hizbollah who are prepared to literally die for their cause, our government would prefer that our soldiers dont get wholesale slaughtered on the ground. The air strikes are to destroy much of the Hizbolla infrastructre and positions forcing them out into the open.
Another point you might wish to make note of, the fireworks in Israel, as you put it, are not just taking place in Haifa, but in the entire north. Kiryat Shmona, Ma'alot. Tiberias, Nazareth, Safed. These are just the larger communities.
My old home town of Shlomi, population about 7000 is more or less deserted right now. Its right on the border. Many Israelis from the north have moved down in the centre, many sleeping on beaches, and in parks. As I write in my living i have a couple of friends from Shlomi who are staying with me because being on the border is just too difficult.
As for Gaza. . . .I just posted something you might be interested in in the Politics forumComment
