They are knee deep in the Big Muddy,
But the big fool says to push on....
I hope this war won't be another war of casualties and wounded people turning to nameless faceless census as it is in Iraq right now. Thanking the glorious and wise plans of neocons, Iraqi civilians are killed in big numbers everyday and the 'constructive chaos' has brought nothing beside blood and destruction to this ancient country.

In Lebanon, the battle is going on fiercely and IDF commandos did a very 'brilliant' operation last night attacking Ba'lbak, killing 20 people and wounding more just to arrest 5 men whom according Israelis are Hizbollah low-rank members. On BBC World it was an interview with a Hizbollah official in Ba'lback even denying that the arrested people have been the people of their party. Well, even if he is not true, that's not a pride for the strongest air force of the world to arrest just 5 men. Risking the lives of Isreli boys (having blue bloods in their veins), for such a thing?

As the war goes on and the expected rapid flashy victory is substituting by a long exhausting procedure of going to and fro in Lebanese territory aiming a dim future, the war mongers are trying to define a new target. This I read in Yediot Aharanot today. Well, both our name and Syrians' has been repeated since the beginning, but these days we can hear it more frequently.

Today when Olmert was boasting off about wiping the militants off the borders, they shelled about 160 rockets into Israel, one of them penetrating about 50 miles deep into Israeli territory. Well, may be this can teach him and others that this problem has no military solution and they can't go anywhere using their savage force, killing more and more of civilians, destructing the infrastructure of Lebanon. When they will ever learn?

Trying to know more about the circumstances in Lebanon, I surfed the website of Lebanese Communist Party today and found this and this. Also, this afternoon there was a live interview with Khalid Haddada, the general secretary of the Party on Aljazeerah. Through my weak Arabic, I could understand he was saying that the war in Lebanon is not targeting Hizbollah and resistance, but the whole Lebanon and her sovereignty.

Aha, and something more interesting. I found this today on a Lebanese weblog. Well, if it's true, "Hello there in Tel Aviv!"
