A Small Note To The Lebanese People
I don't know Irwin Graulich. But I think I like him. He is apparently President/CEO of his own rather successful business, so isnt in the position of, say, the unfortunate Inigo Wilson where he can be fired for not exactly expressing the 'right' viewpoints.
Mr Graulich hits things rather succinctly on the head with his diatribe to the Lebanese, and frankly sets the ground which I rather feel we ought to have been fighting all along about the 'conflict' in Lebanon and Israel (I do not call it a 'conflict in Lebanon'). And I say this as someone who has posted extensively about Qana, perhaps to the detrimental exclusion of what should have been equally extensive commenting the morality of both sides in the actual 'conflict' itself.
Mr Graulich, you have pretty much covered it from my point of view, even if the pitiful PM Olmert didnt exactly live up to your expectations. Thanks for saving me the typing time.
Those Poor, Innocent Lebanese By Irwin N. Graulich August 4, 2006
Let me get this straight. You allow one of the largest terrorist organizations in the world to set up shop throughout your country. You permit them to completely take over the entire southern third of your country and you claim to have seen nothing.You allow the terrorists to build sophisticated, fortified bunkers and you did not see any heavy equipment building them. You allow the Hezbollah terrorists to move into many of your towns and villages, including the complete takeover of one of the largest neighborhoods in Beirut, where they proceed to build numerous, complex command and control centers ... and you claim ignorance.
You allow the terrorists to store weapons, bombs and rockets in your basements. You turn a blind's eye when they carry arms into your restaurants, stores and buildings. Yet you call yourself an "innocent civilian."You sleep with dogs, you wake up with fleas. You sleep with missiles, you wake up dead.You watch the parades with hundreds of thousands of participants including children screaming, "Jihad. Death to Israel, Jews and Americans," burning American and Israeli flags. Goose-stepping soldiers with Nazi-like salutes receive your cheers--and all of you "innocent civilians" did not see a thing (even though you were captured on videotape).There are giant posters of the rubenesque terrorist leader, Hasan Nasrallah, all over Lebanon with headlines declaring the imminent destruction of Israel. Yet you choose to elect this terrorist
party to your government--and all of the so called "innocent Lebanese" do not know anything about anything.Twenty thousand rockets and launchers are shipped into your country along with other military equipment by plane, truck and ship, and the government industrial complex knew absolutely nothing; and neither did all those "poor, innocent civilians" who are now crying.
The Lebanese "knowingly allowed (aka aided and abbetted)" murderous terrorists to proliferate in their sovereign nation. Like spoiled teenagers, they now refuse to take any responsibility. Of course there are some truly innocent civilians, but there were hundreds of thousands of beautiful German babies and mothers in Dresden and Berlin who were blown to bits. If an attack emanates from your country, the entire country is responsible. That is how life works. Sometimes it is unfair.I hate when people lie to my face and expect me to believe
their vile fabrications. Does the Muslim world really think that the vast majority of Americans are that foolish? Only the quislings at CNN like Larry King, Nic Robertson, Wolf Blitzer, et al will fall for this Joseph Goebbels-style propaganda.The confused, immoral left and their paper of record, The New York Times only see "innocent civilians throughout Lebanon." Europe, that moral bastion which gave birth to Nazism, will look at photos of men, women and children in despair, without putting the image into its proper context. Yet countries like Sweden, Switzerland and Ireland, who could not decide whether to support Hitler or Churchill during WWII, can drum up the moral authority to criticize Israel today. And leave it to Vichy, France 2006 headed by Jaques "Petain" Chirac to condemn Israel's response.
Seeing television snippets of wounded or dead Lebanese with people sitting on the ground crying and calling them all "innocent civilians" is the same as looking at a photograph of the armpit of Christie Brinkley and saying, "Here is the photo of a supermodel. Isn't she beautiful?"
The armpit picture is only a part of the story. When human beings see babies or mothers hurting, no matter what, we feel the pain. If we saw baby pictures of Charles Manson, we would want to cuddle him.We cannot look at photos of so-called "innocent civilians" in a vacuum. It is important for all "moral, decent" human beings to realize that the compassion emotion is similar to the sex emotion. Often times, it interferes with truth, logic and morality. Listen up, all you "Innocent Lebanese along with your innocent, Hezbollah supporting government." Do you want to know why your towns, villages and cities are smoldering? Do you want to know why 800,000 people are homeless and 600 are dead? Do you want to know why your infrastructure
is devastated?
The answer is: The Jews are simply not going to pack up their little valises and walk into gas chambers again. The Jews will not be taken from their homes and marched into the Mediterranean Sea by Nazis or Hezbollah-Hamas-Syrian-Iranian, Nazi-like sympathizers. The Jews in Israel or anywhere else are just not going to allow themselves to be shipped away like you dream about every day. Attention all radical Muslims throughout the entire world and Jacques Chirac. The Jews will not be walking into death camps or graves ever again, and if you dare try it, Qana, Tyre, Nabatiyeh, Bint Jbeil, Kounine, Beit Yahoun, Rashaya, Baalbek, Majdel Zoun, Ayt-a-Shab, etc. will all look a whole lot worse than Dresden and Berlin. And Beirut may in the end become hotter than Hiroshima.Attention Lebanon--your country is smoldering because Jews are sick and tired of being murdered. You keep pushing those
pathetic, weak, Torah studying Jews by using terrorism and kidnapping soldiers and all, yes all, of Lebanon will be smoldering.
I urge any person that will be having dinner with Sayed Hassan Nesrallah, the big fat brave man hiding in his little rat hole while his fighters are being picked off like little olives on a tree, to make sure his life insurance is fully paid. Nasrallah is just a pimp for Iran, sending out his Hezbollah terrorist hookers to "screw the Jews." The amazing thing is that Iran is not an Arab country. They should not be involved in the Arab-Israeli conflict. They do not border Israel, so there is no Iranian territorial dispute where they claim, like everyone else, that Israel occupies their land. Yet, Ahmadinejad's (pronounced--"a mad dog on Jihad") hatred for Jews and Israel rivals that of Adolf Hitler.It is no wonder that the Iranian president feels this way. Israel is supreme in virtually every area--technically, militarily, scientifically, culturally, morally and religiously. Each attempt by macho Muslim/Arab countries to destroy Israel has been met with a totally devastating, humiliating defeat. Like Saddam, the skinny little Ahmadinejad aspires to be the big hero of the Muslim world.
Ahmadinejad should not be deluded into thinking that he will get off as lightly as the Lebanese. He does not comprehend is that Israel will not use a tongue depressor when they capture him and his associates. Should Iran dare make one wrong move on Israel, Israel will simply "Beat the Shiite out of them!"

This post has raised a couple of points I'd like to mention.
Firstly, I'd like to say that I admire the forthright manner of the writer, we've had enough of the mealy mouthed, lets have folk that say right out what they mean.
Secondly, the content of his post reveals exactly why we should all be worried about the middle east, do I detect a hint of nuclear devastation threatened within his rhetoric?
Lastly, I respect the right of any nation to defend itself, and unless those that would be 'freedom fighters' jihadi's, or whatever else that they would like to be percieved as actually put on uniforms, then civilian casualties are the wages of their own actions.
This is one of the best posts you've ever done, in my opinion. Tops.
By the way, I call him "Armani Dinner Jacket".
I wish the words were mine, Tom, I really do...
Nail, yes I would say there is a hint of nuclear devastation in the line about 'Beirut may end up hotter than Hiroshima'. When you are 5 million against more than a hundred times that number crammed into a nation the size of Wales, sometimes you need that kind of...muscle just to survive.
DSD, great find, great post. I've long considered AhMADinejad to be just that, MAD as a hatter!
Mr. Graulich has used words I too wish I had written. Again, Great Find!
Problem with that DSD is a nuclear strike could never happen in isolation.
How far can Pakistan nuke's reach for example? or China?
If the answer is not this far...then sod it, they should nuke tehran while they're at it!
:-)
Well actually Nail I think it could, but thats possibly a debate for another day. Pakistan's government is by and large a secular one - Pervez Musharraf is basically a dictator (albeit an extremely benevolent one by the general standard!) sitting on a powder keg of Muslim extremism - there are eastern parts of Pakistan such as Kashmir which are basically out of government control, hence the fact that imams in the earthquake zone can order aid groups whose female members wont cover themselves in burqas out of the region with impunity.
If Iran gets nukes then god help us all. We should be focussing on Iran NOW and the fact that we are not is terrifying.
