People Holed Up Without Food & Water For 3 Wks In Lebanon Emerge
Edited on Mon Jul-31-06 09:35 AM by leftchick
I only found this in the yahoo photo gallery. Israel stops bombing for a couple of hours and a few folks finally escape. That 48 hour lull ended up lasting only nine hours. They are bombing again. God, this is heartbreaking...

2. God bless these poor elderly ladies. I do mean LADIES!
These women were someone's little baby when they were born. They are likely now someone's mother. They deserve love, respect and tender loving care.

What kind of vile, evil terrorists would do this to elderly women? The kind in Israel that my country is supporting with deadly weaponry by the planeloads.

There is no justification for bombing defenseless people for 20 days, NONE!


Cable news just reported that Bent Jbail has been leveled. There is nothing left of it. Curse those who did it!
