Lebanon tells UN of imminent Israeli attack
Calcutta News.Net Saturday 31st October, 2009
Lebanon believes the Israeli army has it in its sights, and is preparing a major attack on its soil.
Lebanon's ambassador to the United Nations has told the international body Israel is exhibiting signs of an imminent attack on his country.
The claim was published by the Lebanese newspaper Al-Hayyat on Friday.
Ambassador Noaf Salaam, says the report, has sent communiques to the UN Secretary-General Ban ki-moon, and to the Security Council condemning artillery fire by the Israeli military on the village of Houla, where a Katyusha rocket was fired from at the Upper Galilee last week.
Salaam described the artillery fire as "a clear violation of Lebanon's sovereignty as well as of UN Resolution 1701," which was the basis for a ceasefire after the Lebanon War of 2006.
According to Al-Hayyat, Salaam complained of threats by Israeli government officials which indicated the officials were planning an attack.
Salaam said the Israeli decision to bomb Lebanese territory after every Katyusha attack delayed and prevented Lebanese forces from investigating the rocket attacks. A small number of Katyusha rockets have been fired in recent weeks from inside Lebanon, however local militant groups, including Hezbollah, claim to have no knowledge of them.
Only nine rockets have been fired since the month-long war ended in 2006.
Lebanon held parliamentary elections in June but has been deadlocked since then over the formation of a national unity government
In another development Friday, it was learned that Israel has been trying to get the term of the current command of the UNIFIL forces in Lebanon extended for six months.
Local media in Israel reported Friday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu secretly contacted Italy's Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi to persuade him to keep Italy in charge of the United Nations force in Lebanon, rather than handing control to Spain as was planned.
Spain is said to be outraged over the fact the request by Israel was concealed. Israel's foreign ministry has tried to cool down the furore, saying there should be no interference by Israel in UNIFIL's affairs, as it would upset European countries taking part.
It was reported that Israel had sought an extension of the UNIFIL commander, Italy's General Claudio Graziano for 6 months due to "the sensitive period" Lebanon is currently undergoing.
A diplomat from Spain questioned this, asking "What does a 'sensitive period in Lebanon' mean? When isn't there tension in Lebanon? What kind of argument is this?"
Israel's Defense Minister Ehud Barak was due to visit Madrid next week, but on Friday abruptly cancelled his visit saying he was needed in Washington DC. Email this story to a friend

As GODS chosen people, it is your duty to exterminate these soldiers of satan. So it is said in the Bible, till the end times of this age. GOD is ALWAYS with you, the Jew.

Are you kidding me!!!
Hindus tend to be some of the most enlightened tolerant people on the planet!
You leave them alone and they leave you alone.
Now compare that to the most intolerant violent murdering religion on the planet at this time....Islam!
Murder, biggotry, intolerance, theft, Islam has murdered almost 100 million Indian Hindus!!!!
Is it any small wonder India has it out for countries like pakistan!
Islam needs a reformation or to go the way of the dodo into the ash bin of history.

Whooppee, Israel to attack Lebanon - my money is on Hezbollah!
Summer of 2006, it was 'sweet' to see the Hezbollah warriors take out 23 Merkava tanks with their advanced Russian RPG-29 anti-tank rockets, The night vision goggles allowed Hezbollah to annihilate the Jewish rats as they tried to sleep and in the end the Hezbollah punched a (((hole))) in that Israeli 'Coevette' missile ship sending it home with a large plum of smoke trailing it and the Jews tail-beteen-their-legs.
What will the new war on the genocidal Jews bring us next? Certainly the cowards are not so tough against armed troops as they are killing Palestinian women and children.

You are very confused.
Sad to see how confused some people are.
Hopefully Israel ends this farce now and ejects the squatters lock stock and barrel.

When will we learn
He who lives by the sword shall also die by the sword.. Famious truism that we still fail to understand.. The first and biggest prison is OUR OWN MIND. Yes we are slaves to our own fears and limiting beliefs.. Somehow we allow ourselves to continue believe our own lies and continue to be imprisoned by our limiting thoughts.. Open up you mind to see that we are but rarest of jewels within this universe.. Reachout to God in wonder and thankful joy for this miracle we have here at our feet.. Cry out to the heavens that the darkness that seems to exist in the minds of our people.. Cry out that the clouds be lifted and we be released from our prison.. Let the flower open to give praise to our creator God

Shit for brains!
Yes lol and azcowboy I’m talking to you!
First lol, Islam is rotten to the core, starting with your murdering paedophile warlord you call Mohammed. The only thing you barbarians are good for is strapping on a bomb and blowing yourselves up, so why don’t all 1.2 billion of you fuckers do the rest of us a favour and blow up, think of all those lovely virgins waiting for you, so off you go.
As for you AZ, I’ll write this slowly so even you can understand. Moslems want you dead too! If you are not Moslem you are classed as an infedel and as such you must be killed. You should be grateful to israel for keeping these people from slicing your head off. But then again an ignorant fucker like you doesn’t have enough brain cells to see that. Many people have tried to destroy the Jews over the millenia, but they are all gone while the Jews are still here. when you are both dead you can explain to G-d how you feel about his chosen people, I’m sure you can put him in his place, the sooner you meet him the better!

Do you really think spewing this kind of written diatribe does anything but make you look stupid?
Israel is a reality!
Palestine is not!
Te people calling themselves Palestinians are useless they do nothing but breed like roaches and die like them as well.
Good riddance.
Israel get the raid out and do the world a favor.

The immaturity is overwhelming!
I’m a muslim born in lebanon and moved to canada under a university scholarship, whats funny is i have lived for the better half of my life in lebanon and now here i have friends from all races and creeds... They do not carry hate. the ones that do is hate passed down from parents talkn about it. A terrorist is a terrible person regardless of religion. If ur kid grows up to be a fuck up it looks bad towards the house that raised him but most of the time his family isn’t near as messed up as that one bad apple. But people in different continents find it easy to blame and call names at other people. The people i want to talk to are the soldiers fighting for their countries would they rather find peace or keep fighting? soldiers should fight for the dignity of their country and not because of political decisions. Israel is a country that always seems to be trying to prove itself even tho it is recognized as a world power. Lebanon as a country just wants to exist in peace and for the guy calln lebanon a muslim CUNTRY, shame on you first of all its over 30% catholic and they are closer to jerusalem where jesus came along than ull ever be ... anyway TRY and talk it out before you throw gloves off..

No Bombing
No one should be bombing anyone. Lebanon is one of the world’s most tolerant and religiously diverse countries. They have a small military and a lot of angry guerrilla fighters that belong to other countries. Israel is not so different. No one holds moral high ground over another anymore. Everyone needs to stop fighting. The more intellectuals we have, the better and Islam, Christianity, and Judaism have all provided lots of intellectuals. Oh, by the way, all three of those religions are officially recognized by both Lebanon and Israel. The only waste of space are the bombs themselves.

To all the ignorant people who know nothing about Lebanon
To all the ignorant people. Lebanon is a diverse country. As mentioned, it is 30 % Chrisitian, 70% muslims approximately. At one time in the earlier years of its creation, it was 90% Christian. For all the ignorant people who have never been to the middle-east, don’t open your stupid inbred mouths because you know NOTHING about Lebanon. Without the middle-eastern cultures, you would not be reading or writing. Lebanon is a very civilized culture. Christian, Jews and Muslims have lived there in peace for 1000’s of years. To you far-right fundamentalist so-called Christians, start practicing Christianity properly; that is, love your neighbor as your self. I was brought up Christian and you fundamentalist so-called Christians don’t have a clue about the teachings of Christ. The first non-jewish woman who was approached by Jesus was a woman from Sidon, Lebanon. The Lebanese are a peaceful people, who have contributed much to western civilization. To the stupid person who said that the Lebanese are backward, I think you need to read some history books, you moron! Pythagoras was born in Sidon, Lebanon to one parent who was Lebanese and another who was Greek. The Lebanese have such an incredible history having invented so much; e.g. the phonetic alphabet, invented the best ships in the world that were envied by the Romans. Think before you uneducated people open your mouths. Stop watching your brainwashing stupid TV news and look at the truth and what is really happening. If you just watch those stupid mind-numbing brainwashing TV news, your brain will absorb the stupid information and your mouth will utter stupid words. So, show some intelligence. Let there be peace in Lebanon and let all the ignorant people who don’t know what they are talking about when it comes to the middle-east finally just shut up and get an education. Go live in Lebanon and find out for yourself; you just might learn something for once. Pray for peace in Lebanon; that is what Jesus would have wanted. I don’t live in Lebanon but I know the people are good people as are all people in the world. Stop dividing the world and look for the similarities in all the cultures. practice the law of attraction and ask for peace in the world. It is not naive to want the world to be one
