QASIM Chaalan thought he had died in the burning haze of the missile strike.
He failed to finish the sentence because a second missile smashed into the ambulance behind them.
It is this sort of idiocy, terrorism, which makes me blind with rage over the actions of Israel and their neo-con apologists.
Fortunately I'm still laughing about the anon yesterday who mangaged to call me a fascist and a liberal (communist? I'm trying to Americanise his (its) language.) in the same post. So be warned. I have no problem deleting stupidity in my current mood.

I'm not a neo-con.
But I'm afraid I have a lot more sympathy for Israel than Hezbollah, which started this particular chain of events.
Let them return the two Israeli soldiers if they don't like the way things are going. Personally, I think they're fine with it.
I appreciate the feelings toward Hezbollah, that is not my argument.
It is important to actually define who is who in all of this.
Hezbollah are on Lebanese soil and no doubt include Lebanese nationals.
That does not say that all Lebanese are Hezbollah, or even support their actions.
Nothing, to my mind, justifies attacks on unarmed non-combatants and medical teams who have no proven connection to the terorists.
To do so is an act against human decency.
I have a lot more sympathy for the children and other civilians who are being killed than either Hezbollah or Israel.
Hezbollah is made up of criminal extremists, but so are the Israelis who are running this show in Lebanon.
I didn't oppose the US attack on Afghanistan, and would have had to on the basis of your POV.
Unfortunately, there are very real risks involved in sheltering terrorists.
Actually, i didn't initially oppose the US attack on Iraq, until I found out precisely what it was based on. Actually, I'm still not sure what it was based on.
Nonetheless, I'm afraid we're not gonna agree on this. I won't comment on it further.
Cartledge,
This time, you went a bit over the edge. It's obvious that the spin on the picture, with absolutely NO proof that the IDF did this, is proof that you tend to jump on the spin bandwagon.
Whenever you come into alignment and agree with the terrorists, and slam Israel, it only makes you look like a terrorist supporter.
Ignore me all that you want, don't post this post (your choice) but at least you're reading what I have to say.
Cartledge posts something from me, amazing. Maybe I'll cut back some of my insults, which, in reality, make no sense a lot of times, but I just get angry sometimes.
I am willing to post "respondable" posts from now on.
Anon has a name, and it is Steve.
Steve, do you think Hezbollah hit those ambulances? Two ambulances were hit. Obviously it was no accident - someone was trying to hit them.
Steve, the story is from a reputable source (if you follow the link) and I'm satisfied the details are quite kosher.
I don't have an issue with people dissagreeing with me.
However my views are generally supported by fact, it is only the interpretation of that fact which is at issue.
Welcome aboard.
Tonight four UN observers were killed by an Israeli airstrke. Kofi Anan charged it was a deliberate act. This doesn't make much sense to me (why would Israel engage in a deliberate act to kill UN observers.) But it does bring me back to the point that while Israel may be winning the military part of the war (though not as decisively as they no doubt thought they were going to), they're not winning the public relations part.
None of it makes any sense to me.
RealityEducator, there's an article from The Guardian (UK) that explains the bombing started in the morning and, despite repeated calls from the UN team, lasted until 7pm.
I can't believe that they're bombing the Red Cross ambulances and UN posts and still many americans assert they're bombing on Hizballah targets... how blind can they be?
