What a disgusting ghoul. If you ever wanted proof that some people are from a different civilization with different values completely alien and at odds to ours: Nasrallah: We have Israelis' body parts
Hizbullah leader appears in public for first time in more than a year to attend Shiite religious event in Lebanese capital. In fiery speech he says his group has 'heads' and 'body parts' of Israeli soldiers, as well as 'nearly intact cadaver'
Hizbullah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah said in a fiery speech on Saturday that his group had the "heads" and "body parts" of Israeli soldiers, as well as "a nearly intact cadaver".
Nasrallah, one of Israel's most wanted men, appeared in public for the first time in more than a year to attend a Shiite religious event in the Lebanese capital of Beirut on Saturday.
"We have the heads, the hands, the feet and even a nearly intact cadaver from the head down to the pelvis," he said.
"The Israeli army left behind the remains of the bodies of a large number of soldiers," said Nasrallah...
...Turning to the Israeli public, the Hizbullah leader said, "Oh, Zionists your army is lying to you... Your army has left the body parts of your soldiers in our villages and fields.
"Our mujahideen used to fight these Zionists, killing them and collecting their body parts. I am not talking about regular body parts. I tell the Israelis, we have the heads of your soldiers, we have hands, we have legs."
Surrounded by dozens of bodyguards, Nasrallah walked through the Hizbullah stronghold in the southern suburbs of Beirut toward a stadium where he was to deliver a speech commemorating Ashura, Shiite Islam's holiest day...
As a side note, does YNet even read the copy they reprint from Reuters? It contains this gem:
Israel's war with Hizbullah, which followed Hizbullah's capture of two Israeli soldiers, resulted in the deaths of more than 1,200 civilians in Lebanon, a third of them children, as well as 160 Israelis, mostly soldiers.
Complete bullshit.
Even the original Reuters text isn't quite so bad (though still wrong). In fact, about half of the confirmed Lebanese casualties were fighters, though I'm not sure how you can tell since Hizballah uses people out of uniform (and, relevantly, positions itself amongst civilians). How is this tidbit even relevant in an article about this ghoul? Is Reuters trying to mitigate in some way the monstrousness of what Nasrallah is saying?
In any case, my Israeli emailer (who just watched the speech) says, "I've never seen him under such stress."

Quick, get Arun Gandhi on the phone. We have to talk about that culture of violence thing...
nasrallah surrounding himself with dozens of bodyguards won't protect hime from a Hellfire missle.
Snake Yassin and Rantisi, you'll have new bunk mates in Hell soon.
In my humble opinion, he serves Israel's better alive than dead. at least, as far as PR is concerned.
