Lebanon Conflict at 12 Days

The all out attack that Israel is doing over in Lebanon is startling, but not unexpected. There's just so much craziness happening in the world that this is little to be shocked by. I find it really concerning that people condemn the attacks yet don't care that Bush is putting an all-out war against "terrorism" in their homelands. It's the same freakin' thing! I'm not one to support war and to support attacks, but it's just the simple truth.

Now, I am somewhat surprised that Israel has kept increasing force to the outskirts of Lebanon, and don't seem to be letting back, despite the numerous pleas for cease fire. But the fact that the UN wants to take action against Israeli leaders is borderline absurd, and which I totally agree with the US Ambassador with.

Even funnier, and Scott brought up this point in my phone call with him today, is that Bush goes on an all out "search" for "weapons of mass destruction" in Iraq (of course, it wasn't about oil...), and when North Korea shoots actual weapons of mass destruction towards Japan, no one does squat anything. And we all know North Korea has tons of that stuff too.... Of course, North Korea has no oil, or anything we need for that matter.
