At Judeoscope:
I lived until 2002 in a small southern village near Mardshajund that is inhabited by a majority of Shias like me. After Israel left Lebanon, it did not take long for Hezbollah to take have its say in other towns. Received as successful resistance fighters and armed to the teeth, they stored rockets in bunkers in our town as well. The social work of the Party of God consisted in building a school and a residence over these bunkers! A local sheikh explained to me laughing that the Jews would lose in any event because the rockets would either be fired at them or if they attacked the rockets depots, they would be condemned by world opinion on account of the dead civilians. These people do not care about the Lebanese population, they use them as shields, and, once dead, as propaganda. As long as they continue existing there, there will be no tranquility and peace.

3) Comments are generally unmoderated, which means I don't necessarily agree with the tone and tenor of everything posted. In fact, sometimes people post things they don't really mean just to make other people look bad. The internet is an anonymous place for the most part. That said...
4) I welcome you to post here. I'd love to have your input, agree, disagree or just offer a different data point, really. If I didn't want any participation, I'd turn off comments.

Anyone who posts here will be treated as my guest. That means I'm happy to be polite as a default, but if anyone is rude to the host they'll be unceremoniously shown the door.
It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."

Kofi Annan will be requesting a U.N. investigation any moment now - of Hezbollah, of Iran and Syria as sponsors. And certainly he'll be investigating all the useful fools in the West, who repeat Hezbollah's mantras and press releases, while studiously avoiding this and similar information - and history itself (pdf). Studied avoidance, a pre-requisite for any and all ideologues.
Yea, that's what Annan will be doing, of course it is.
The newspaper is called "Tagesspiegel" not "tageszeitung".
See the blog of one of the journalists of Tagesspiegel, who refers to the letter:

Hezbollah and its leaders are COWARDS. Put on a uniform, stand on the front line, away from innocent people and fight for what you believe in. Im sure if you want to be a "martyr"(one who suffers for the sake of principle) then the IDF will gladly help you in this endeavor.
Actually these Jihadist think they are doing these victims a favor by killing them in Jihad. They view them as martyrs who are dying for the furtherance of Islam and who will be rewarded in paradise by Allah. This is why they have no shame in using women and children.
