#3 Laughable from those neither capable or willing to defend themselves.

Sit down and STFU unless you plan on sending troops to help wipe this group of assclown, sectarian fascists out. Them and "The party of God" proxies they employ in Leabanon.

#6 And Chirac thinks that Israel wants to destroy Lebanon. What a moron. Everybody except Syria and Iran wants to see Hizbollah trampled. And there should be G8 consensus on doing exactly that. France deserves to be marginalized and humilitated.

#7 France destroyed Lebanon circa 1920 when they annexed the Bekka and turned a christian majority state into a state where christians were bearly 50%. It all went downhill from there.

#8 They worry most, not because violence could spread to Syria or because "the situation in the Mideast could deteriorate further", but because it will expose the idiocy of their worldview that evil doesn't exist in the world and that there is never a need for military force-words are enough to stop terrorists. If their worldview comes tumbling down, then what? They stand to lose their prestige as world-class negotiators, they stand to lose much in financial terms because of their activities in the area, and horror of horrors, red-state Americans' worldview that evil exists, oft expressing itself in terror attacks, might actually gain ground in the international community. What a nightmare!

Their failure in "negotiations" with Iran should have proved the idiocy of their addiction to words, but we still have a lot of buy-in from the international community that a few well-turned phrases at closed-door council meetings are enough turn terrorists into cuddle toys.

#9 Seems to me that the EU views this as a proxy war and they're choosing the wrong side.

#11 The current Middle East events could delay our plans for Islamization of Europe by decades.

#12 And I'm worried that it won't spread to Syria. Go get 'em, Israel!

#13 HELSINKI - The European Union expressed concern on Friday that the situation in the Middle East could deteriorate further after Israel’s military offensive in Lebanon, with conflict possibly spreading to Syria.

I am sorry Mr. Errki, wake up you stupid Finn ! it has already spread, it is all over your godforsaken Eurabian sub-continent. Stop mumbling MSM stupidities and take a look at your vermin filled backyard !

As for the rest of your hopes for the Quartet reviving the ""peace talks"" - I garantee you that even if you bring forth the awsome Quintet, we are not in the mood for music right now !
There would be no talks until we wipe out Hizballah and their puppeteers from Lebanon, and if it takes cutting off one of Assad's testicles in the process - tough shit !
Until they return the kidnapped soldiers there would be no talks (besides the sound of screeming shrapnell).
So the Sissy Euro's and the impotent UN assholes should either shut the fuck up or deliver those soldiers back to us pronto.

Yes, that what this green euro MP believes

Ilka Schroder MEP
The War Against Israel and Growing European Nationalism

Fits well with the Eurabia theory, too.

#15 Btw, one very real worry of at least the french authorities is the explosion of the muslim 'hoods if/when open war breaks out with syria and iran; there was some talk of foreign intervention during the ramadan riots, I wouldn't be surprized to have iran, which boasts now of owning every terrorist outfit in the world, to retaliate against the euros by stirring ethnic/social troubles; in France, as there's an omnipresent low-level intifada (30 000 torched cars a year, about 1000 no go zones where any police incursion leads to spontaneous rioting,...), it wouldn' pose any problem for them.

#17 Amazingly, I find I have something in common with the EU.

(I know - it shocked me too.)

I, too, am worried.

Worried that the war to destroy the terrorists assholes Mideast Conflict won't spread to Syria.
