#1 Any sign of "white t-shirt guy" or "green helmut guy" in the MSM photo's of the "massacre"? Just askin is all.

#2 Did we say 40 people? We meant, uh, 400 people!

Yeah, that's the ticket.

#3 Already there have been reports of some pilots not dropping payloads

Even the pilots are getting uneasy

There are NO missiles being launched at Israel from well within the border of Lebanon

Israel can't kill everyone / Hezbollah can't kill everyone - SO WHY BOTHER

Nothing will change when the fighting stops - everyone knows that...

#4 Another 40 presumably hapless civies who chose to stay in contested area despite repeated warnings and numerous examples of what happened to those who remained in previous cases, example Qana.

Word of advice: If you're near the Syrian border and locals make it a habit of loading and off-loading trucks coming in and out of Syria in these perilous times, get out of town. Head north, ASAP.

If Hezbos are placing rocket and missile launchers near your village, head north, ASAP.

If Hezbos are stock-piling an arsenal in your local recreational center and or Mosque, head north, ASAP.

#5 Cool. 40 Terrorists killed.

This is the BBC so all terrorists are called 'civilians'.

Just do a s/civilian/terrorist/i and you get much closer to the truth.

#6 Still waiting for the Lebanese PM to denounce Hizb'Allah's attacks on Israel. Until then Fouad and his cabinet are tools and should foad.

#7 "This is the BBC so all terrorists are called 'civilians'."

CrazyFool, If you happen to notice this article qualifies its statements with Mr Siniora told the meeting and the Lebanese government says.

#8 Nothing will change when the fighting stops - everyone knows that..

Laughs!! EE3821, You have to separate your wishful thinking from what is real. Hizbollocks operatives are getting killed every hour. At some point enough will be killed to stop this.

And BTW, note the sense of panic that the Jooos are going to finish what we started. Why isn't the UN, etc saving us from our dimwhitiness?

We are Arabs we deserve to be saved from our own stupidity and feckless irresponsibility.

#9 Hizbollocks operatives are getting killed every hour. At some point enough will be killed to stop this.

phil_b, you're missing a point. Ask yourself, what proved to be the most effective IDF's tactic against Paleo suicide boomers? Now survey Lebjoke before July 12 and today.

#11 Siniora now corrects the massacre numbers to ----- ONE. Just one.

Seems Hezbo didn't get enough time to stock the building with old corpses.

Looks sweet -MSM looking stupid using fake info yet again. You'd think they'd be starting to catch on.

#16 Ali Baba and the 40 thieves....and then there was but one.

#17 So who said it was 40? I notice in the original article the '40' number only appeared in the headline (and sub-headline) and only attributed to the PM without being an actual 'quote' or appearing anywhere else in the article.

Did the PM really say it was 40? Or did the BBC reporter pull this number out of his ass and simply attribute it by paraphrase to the PM?

#18 #13 Blowing their [paleo self boomers] houses. Same applies to Lebanone. Enough matherial damage, and they'll sit on the Hizb.
