If the Muslims (among them many Arabs), be they Lebanese, Palestininian, Syrian, or Bahrainian, gave up their designs on the territory that is now Israel, then this war / conflict would be over tomorrow.   So go ahead, keep on believing that Arabs are not at all responsible for their actions, that they are justified in lying, in launching rockets indiscriminately, at suicide bombings, at blowing up planes, at kidnapping, at killing to recapture "Arab" land (supposedly).  Oh yeah, and have fun at Bahrain's annual gay pride parade and the Bahrainian Jewish community's outdoor celebration of Yom Haatzma'ut. One day you'll have to let me in on the secret of how you got into Bahrain on an Israeli passport when Bahrain and Israel have no diplomatic relations.  I personally don't care if you are an Israeli, a Jew, an Arab or all three.  But I have to say that I am very unimpressed with you as a person.  First, you were shown to be a liar.  Second, instead of apologizing and acknowledging your lies, you accuse the moderator of living in a bubble and of being a racist.  What kind of behaviour is that?  Looks more like chutzpah than love to me.

Hi Gus – I personally think the US did what was at this point politically expedient, it is as they say 'what it is'. Clearly I think it was a mistake, and mistakes were made on all sides. The biggest mistake of all was Hassan Nasrallah's who critically misjudged the situation.

There is plenty of talk in the Arab World as is evidenced above of the nasty Israelis etc etc, propaganda – You don't hear much about the Arabs, Muslims & Christians that will be slaughtered in Lebanon by the Hezbollah after the fighting has ceased. The murders that have & will take place in vengeance against others who did not serve 'allah' well in the conflict. This is their way, and most Lebanese know it and will admit it – if you can catch them away from their overlords for a moment.

Given the choice between being stuck in a room now with an Israeli, or a Hezbollah man tomorrow they will admit to you they would choose the former.

Cheers saus

If you really are a Jew in Bahrain, then I would think you would be somewhat concerned about Iran's rising influence in your neck of the woods?  I sincerely doubt that practicing Jews will be tolerated under either fundamentalist Shia or Wahabbi domination.

Do you believe israeli blood is better than Lebanese or palestinian blood? If you do then there you are one of the people that are horrible in this world and its sad that people have started to think that Arabs are the cause for everything. Fine, believe in your media, believe what the little bubble you surround yourself in. And for ur info I am a jew living in bahrain. Bahrain is a very open society. We have a jew in our senate. yes my mother is proud of me, because i believe in love not war :) unlike the government of israel which believes violence is the answer to the lebanese/palestinian conflict…why do u remove the link? because you dont want israelis to see where their tax money and what their government is doing to other people?
