Not Telling the Whole Truth

The ongoing struggle in the Middle East has been widely critical of Hezbollah, Palestine, Iran, Lebanon, Syria and Hamas. Reports have been in favor of Israel and the Jews. Reading about this war in U.S. newspapers is very one sided and don't you dare watch this on TV, as CNN slathers a sympahtetic Israelis view. My gripe is this: I don't favor one side at all, I just want the actual news to be reported, then one can form an actual opinion of what's going on. CNN stays inside Israeli cities, showing how terrible life is there for Jews. I'm sure it is scary with a constant threat of missles being launched. But they have shelters, homes etc. I'm not saying they have it good at all, but compared to Palestinian residents or Lebanese citizens, it is much worse. CNN doesn't go into war torn Beruit, showing Israel's rampage. They don't show Lebanese children. Yet they show Israeli children in a shelter playin with toys. What a Lebanese boys is doing? Crying that his home and his toys are gone and that if he survives he'll somehow have to find a new home. The slanted media is terrible. In the NYTimes, it stated that in Iran all they show is the Palestinian side. That's bad too, but we're doing the same and the U.S. is supposed to be the freesest country on earth. People be weary of what you actually hear. The truth, It's quote in an Iranian paper, "The question is not whether Iran is giving Hezbollah weapons or not, The U.S. is giving weapons to Israel... The issue is the humanitarian catastrophe in Palestine." Regardless of all the banter you hear from either side, the fact is all the angst is b/c of the displacement of Palestinians. And why this has not been resolved. If you look deeper, you'll find out why this hasn't been resolved and that the U.S. is doing their usual. The case for Israel: Iran and Islam wants to destroy Israel whenever they get the chance, there's truth to that. But Israel (and the U.S.) wants to destroy Islam, there's truth to that.
150 Lebanese have been killed, mostly civilians so far as of Sunday July 16. 23 Israelis have been killed, half soldiers. There's the difference. Lebanon is being destroyed because they harbor a terrorist group Hezbollah. A human life is a human life no matter what, not matter how many - taking it is wrong. But how its viewed and done: Hezbollah fights w/ missles (only a few have hit targets and not many have been slain). Israel? They've got ships, tanks, air strikes and they've just about ripped through Lebanon's major cities cauing innocent civilian causilty. Legal Terrorism by Israel w/ the help of the U.S.?
Well what did Hezbollah do, they helped Lebanon end an Israeli occupation in Lebanon for 18 years back 2000. So that's terrorism? Sure Hezbollah may have ties to the Lebanes gov't and Syria and Iran. Israel has concrete, tangible ties to the U.S. Which is worse? Israel is playing like there are no rules, everyone (media & leaders included) is saying that Hezbollah needs to stop first, then maybe (only when prisoners are returned) will Israel let down. That's not a fair game. This just didn't start a few weeks ago, it has been brewing for a long time. The cease fire needs to happen by both sides. Not this if bullshit. If I've got my fists and the man next to me has a gun, and I'm told to put down my fists and then he'll put down his gun, do you think I'll trust him?
