Olmert lashes out at Syria and defends Bush
“Israel is not afraid of fighting,” the Israeli prime minister said today in his wood-panelled office, sitting under images of Ariel Sharon and Yitzhak Rabin.

Olmert called the captured Hezbollah members “tasty fishes”.

The Israeli leader spoke calmly of his determination to press ahead with the offensive, which he said has already significantly “upset all the strategic plans of Iran and Hezbollah in the Middle East”.

Olmert lashed out at Syria, condemned Hezbollah, defended President Bush and predicted the crisis’ outcome will “create a new momentum between us and the Palestinians”.

2. "Tasty fishes" -- fucking disgusting and embarrassing.
What kind of sick psychopathic shit is this? That is worse than something fucking Bush would say.

Please tell me he didn't say this.

4. I'm witholding judgement a little bit: never heard of this source before
It could be true, but then again, an awful lot of propaganda both directions is out there right now.

5. Looove the continual linking of Iran with Hezbollah; subtlety is not
the Neo-Con Israeli strong suit, I see.
But, "tasty fishes"...wtf?

12. what a loon
He had harsh words for Syrian leaders, calling them “reckless”, “immature” and promoters of terror.

Turning to Syria to help solve the crisis would be useless, he said.

“I don’t see that Syria is ready or is even prepared to avail itself to any act of moderation,” Olmert said.

13. Oh great- We've got an alcoholic prez and Israel has a gold fish eater
And I'll just bet he is not afraid to "fight" and gobble his "tasty fishes."
After all, he is backed by US tax dollars and the most
formidable PNAC controlled military in the world.
Enjoy your gold fish, you fucker.
