Shouldn't those signs be saying "Hezbollah, stop the war" or "Hezbollah quit kidnapping Israeli Soldiers", or " Hezbollah, quit raining missiles on Israel". This little Czech display demonstrates nothing but anti-Semitism and the usual European yellow attitude toward Fascism. You people in Europe make me sick.
Of course... What is funny is that they will have to fight the muslim fifth column in their midst...
Disgusting!
Some people in the world (yeah, the remainder of the planet other than Israel and the U.S.) don't think Israel is always right no matter what it does and guess what, love Lebanon.
Get over it.
Hey Ramzi, I wrote the first comment here, and I'm Canadian. A majority of Canadians support Israel in this issue for your information. Secondly, I really feel bad for the Lebanese however if you sleep with snakes you reap what you sow.
Nice rack on that chick!!
Dear Anonymous,
It's one thing to have levity to endure the inhumanity going on and it's another thing to be crude and insensitive. If you want to comment on nice racks, why don't you visit a porn site. I've been spending countless hours watching TV and surfing the net to find out as much as I can about what's going on in the Middle East because my dad is stuck in Lebanon and the last remnants of what used to be my home are being obliterated. Have some tact please and exercise a little discretion. Thanks in advance for your understanding.
Ramzi,
As a fellow Canadian of anonymous, let me expand on his statements. The majority of Canadians don't understand the issues. They don't know much about the history of the region. They have never seen, heard, or smelled a war zone...obviously the majority do not have family living there, and they probably think camels are the main form of transportation.
Add to that our first terrorism scare a while ago and everyone is up in arms (no pun intended) and suddenly xenophobia is spreading across the land. We all used to laugh at Dubya's "if you're not with us, you're against us" logic, but now more are adhering to it.
Everyone here wants to take sides and argue, rather than debate and discuss. It's a bit of a sea change, and it's a little saddening. And without knowing what a Shia shanty town looks like, and without needing to ignore barefoot kids selling gum for a living because there are so many of them, they've made sweeping opinions that they'd rather argue about than debate calmly.
May peace find Lebanon soon. The sun will shine on Lebanon again.

My friend was one of the main people who took part in the Prague Demonstration ( an Arab friend from London). She told me about it and I tried searching for pictures online and here you go, I found it at Ramzi's!
Nada
Maybe someone should look at israel and see what crimes has it done. For 60 years all the mess in the area has been from israel's claimed historic heritage. who gives a shit if the israels lived here ages ago, now they dont, why should they claim it again????Imagine the greeks or italians claiming lands that were theirs.
Anyhow, just to mention that out of my love for lebanon and the region in particular, maybe israel would allow the palestinians to lve and return to their lands and offer them incentives for that. Building one house is much cheaper and more useful than a rocket, Don't you think???
