An alternative view of the war in Lebanon

the war on animals: bombs, mines, oil spills, animals trapped in Beirut harbor, zoos bulldozed with animals in cages

"The fate of the corrupted neoliberal model may be what's now at stake. That model is already unraveling in Latin America where Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is proving his alternate Bolivarian participatory democracy is overwhelmingly popular and working. It's based on a government serving the people by providing essential social services, especially to the poor and desperate ones most in need of it. Chavez's success has made him a symbol of hope and a hero in the region and beyond, it's allowed his form of governance to spread to Bolivia, and there's every reason to imagine and hope it will continue spreading unstoppably because people in other Latin countries are beginning to fight for it. It's all greatly alarmed the ruling authority in Washington that views Chavez as the threat it most fears, even above Iran - a powerful good example that will spread unless the US acts forcibly to stop it, which clearly is its plan."

What is going on here. A big demonstration took place in Leeds today against what's going down, and sideliners, West Yorkshire 911 Truth Campaign have to come here to report it. Anyway it was great. Highly energised and full of righteously angry people from all sections of the community demanding justice

Norwich meeting demands immediate unconditional ceasefire of Lebanese/Israeli conflict

Claims that Hezbollah breached Israeli border are false.

Has the media has been lying to us all along to justify the horrific Israeli military action against Lebanon?

Remember that while Israel was inciting violence in Gaza by increasingly shelling civilians under Operation Summer Rain, the Olmert Government faked an "investigation" into the murder of a Palestinian family on the beach, which was refuted by independent analyses of the evidence.

The international conference in Rome held Wednesday to address the crisis precipitated by the Israeli attack on Lebanon ended without a call for a ceasefire. According to numerous press accounts, US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice stood virtually alone in opposing any language in the conference statement suggesting that the Israeli onslaught, which has already caused close to 500 civilian deaths and destroyed much of the country’s infrastructure, should be ended any time soon.

Is there a relationship between the bombing of Lebanon and the inauguration of the World's largest strategic pipeline, which will channel more a million barrels of oil a day to Western markets?

Virtually unnoticed, the inauguration of the Ceyhan-Tblisi-Baku (BTC) oil pipeline, which links the Caspian sea to the Eastern Mediterranean, took place on the 13th of July, at the very outset of the Israeli sponsored bombings of Lebanon.

It's time for the Israeli People to demonstrate to the world that THEY do not support this, and that they are decent people of conscience, angered by the LIES and violence of the Extremists who have seized power and abused it for their own aggrandizement, Israelis and Jews (and Arabs) be damned.

Israel has a precedent of targeting UN personnel, especially when they've 'dared' to criticize the actions of Zionist Extremists. New facts reveal that the Olmert Government planned this entire 'crisis' months ago, furthering fears that this is all part of a plan to spread war to Iran and Syria - since the people who said "Saddam has nukes!!" couldn't dupe the world into legitimizing their Aggression.

I fear the 'International Force' proposed for the region may be sent into a trap designed by the Neo-Fascists who want war.

According to the UN's Secretary general Kofi Annan: ''The UNIFIL post was deliberately destroyed with the human beings in and around it, I am shocked and deeply distressed by the apparently deliberate targeting by Israeli Defense Forces of a U.N. Observer post in southern Lebanon."

The basic aim of the Zionist massacre, having been given the green light from the transnational elite, is to crush any resistance to the New World Order (NWO).
