re#32:
``We at Chowk ...``

zeemax,

``The Muslims there are totally westernized, a large population is Christian and Jewish, there is absolutely no mullahism or fanaticism. The state is secular. They are no less in style than the French. Isn`t that what US wants Muslim countries to be like?``

...... you conveniently overlook the fact that whereas the 40% christians are westernized, ie. civilized, of the remaining 60% muslim a significant majority, specially the shia are ..... well, muslim and uncivilized ....... and you also forget that hezbollah is a fundamentalist islamist party with its own militia which has vowed to destroy isreal (it has 20+ seats in parliament) ........ and no there arn`t any jews in lebanon; as a matter of fact the christian population has been on the decline - all muslim countries tend to `ethnically` cleanse their populations over time and aspire to either convert, kill, or drive out out their minorities .........

........israel is right in demanding that hezbollah should be disarmed and the government of lebanon take control of its territory ........ it would be foolish and dangerous to accept anything less ........ this stuff is like cancer which requires radical surgery ......

Re: # 36
hats off to hamidm2 for stating straight......

as a matter of fact the christian population has been on the decline - all muslim countries tend to `ethnically` cleanse their populations over time and aspire to either convert, kill, or drive out out their minorities .........

bravo, Sir! Bravo! My admiration for you was always there. But with this, nothing can diminish this admiration

I totally support Israel in its current actions. If the Muslims do not want all this violence (and who does ) then I have a very simple solution to offer them stop using violence everywhere If the Muslims started acting a bit rationally towards others and started a truly meaningful peaceful approach then others will do the same. Otherwise more and more countries and societies will also retaliate with violence against them. Peace is a two way street.

Unfortunately though I am not very optimistic that peace from Islamofascism will be acheived easily and through peaceful means. It will require a lot of effort but in the end the destruction of Islamofascism will be worth it and will be better for the average Abdul and Rehana than the average non-Muslim.

If you want to wipe out a weed (terrorism) wipe out its roots


Going by your logic, we shouldn`t prosecute bank robbers..we should strike at the root..poverty? Just give people a bunch of money and there won`t be any bank robbery..

now what is wrong with this ????

The cabinet said the ``principles of a diplomatic solution`` to the Lebanese crisis were its soldiers` release, a halt in Hezbollah rocket and missile fire into Israel, extension of Lebanese government authority into border zones controlled by Hezbollah, deployment of the Lebanese army along the border and disarmament of all militias in Lebanon.

................. seems to me that this is exactly what the people of lebanon would want if they were `normal` and not muslim .............

Re: # 43
Yes Arjun, that`s right. If you want to eliminate bank robbery, catching bank robbers will be a never-ending chase. Because no matter how many you round up, more will turn up as long there is poverty and injustice.

If the financial system of a country ensures that resources are equally distributed, bank robberies and other petty crimes will go down.

Compare the crime rate in a welfare state like the UK with that in the US.
