Fatah al-Islam says it will continue its battle with the Lebanese army despite a ceasefire which has allowed thousands of civilians to flee the Nahr al-Bared refugee camp in northern Lebanon.
Where is all the angst from world leaders? From peace groups?
Surveying the devastation to his home yesterday, Omar Rashed, a 65-year-old retired teacher, said pointedly: "My house is civilian, not a military outpost.''
It must be okay because it wasn't Israelies indiscriminately bombing and shelling civilians because terrorist were hiding in the area. Notice how little the UN is doing about this mess?
Even after the truce was declared, the snipers were not completely silent. On the side of a road inside the camp, bodies of two people lay motionless. The Red Cross said they could retrieve them only if they were given assurances by the militants that they would not be fired on.
Silent is the UN, silent is Europe. Hell, even the Red Cross isn't making much of a fuss?
I wonder why? Could it be that the terrorists cannot be hounded by the press because, like, they don't give a rats ass? In other words, if Israel was doing this the Muslim world would be up in arms, protesting in the streets, European leaders would be beating their chests demanding Israel stop, the UN would be threatening Israel with sanctions and demanding monitors be put in place.
I say, sell these insane people more bullets.
