I can't think of it being better said, DDT.

Did anyone notice that while everyone is squawking about the 60 killed Lebanese (and some of them probably supporters of Hizballa) no one ever talks about Israel's losses?
Does no one realize Israel is acting in self-defense?

My Israeli friend is having to take cover for his life, and is seeing Israeli soldiers being killed every day.

Yes and they, Arabs with Israei citizenship, seem to be quite content. Unlike Jews who live in Arab countries.

Ah!.......that would be me! I don't have a problem with slamming Islam anymore than I have a problem slamming Jim Jones or that other crazy cult that all killed themselves because Aliens from the comet Halebop were coming to save their souls or Hitler's Nazi Party or the Pope and early Catholics for that matter.

Why hell, the neo nazis get slammed everytime they comb their hair like Hitler and they haven't done a fraction of the damage that Islam has. Muslims follow the teachings of a homicidal lunatic and so do neo nazis. Why should we give Islam a break?

I think you would.....if Christians were spreading their religion by rapings, beheadings, fatwahs and jihads!
