It is too much. Stop killing and destroying Lebanon for "security"

Israel should stop NOW. The international community should stop Israel NOW.

August 1, 2006. It's three weeks now that the state of Israel is involved in this "war". The Israeli government says they are forced to do this. It is necessary to achieve "security" for their country. Every child can spot the error. They make everyone in the neighbourhood hate their guts (even more). That is fundamentally bad for security. How stupid can a nation be?

This does not only apply in the middle east; I've also had turkish food served to me by proud Greeks for instance... The loving sheep I found on the market in Aswan, Egypt.
