We do not want weapons in this new era.

Glad to see that this is Israel's fault! Hezbollah have to blame Israel for stopping weapons into the country that would kill Israelis! Now, what will be the wording of the UN sanction against Israel for stopping Hizbollah importing weapons to kill them.....

Well, for some reason the computer couldn't open the page, so I couldn't read the article, but I will make a quick comment.

Any type of weaponry escalation in the ME, is not particularly a good idea, so shame on Iran trying to sneak weapons into the hands of Hezbollah and in their meddling and aggravation of an already intense region.

With that said, I can see that someone in the Middle East would agree with my statement but word it a little differently such as:

Hibullah got caught lying to the world again - they promised not to arm and disband as a condition for the peace Israel gave to Lebanon.

How about I get excited when Israel invites the IAEA inspectors to tour their nuclear weapons manufacturing facilities!

With occupation, harassment and loss of land since 1967 (did I mention occupations of Lebanon and Sinai), the Palestinians have the right to arm themselves. Those people in the US who say the Palestinians do not have the right to arms actually have guns in their own houses. If we were occupied, we would FIGHT!!!
Okay, give whatever reasons you have to support Israel... they still don't want to give back the land. If they did then they would negotiate FAIRLY. While the Palestinians live in poverty and shame the Israelis have discos, pizza parlors and life. The Palestinians are suffering and have the right to arm themselves. You would do the same...

"While the Palestinians live in poverty and shame the Israelis have discos, pizza parlors and life."

I'm so sick of the poor me mentality. So could the Palestinians if they would stop playing the poor me game and start making a better life for themselves. Their Arab neighbors could help build like Israel was helped in the beginning and success...give a man a fish and he eats for a day, teach a man to fish and eats for the rest of his life. Their Arab neighbors want to keep fueling the fire to keep the worlds eyes off of them and on the Palestinians and Israel as well.

One cannot expect to be blessed with prosperity if they keep on taking up arms get against their brothers... one can see that countries that live by the gun are normally cursed with poverty and everything else under the sun... wish these two countries could come together and live side by side.. they need to build up trust and put away the pointing of the fingers and open themselves up for some honest dialoque...

I am all for the Palestinians having their own state, just not in the same place as ours. And since we already know that, as a group, they want to destroy us AND take our land, we are in competition and opposition, so may the best man win, so to speak. (As far as who that will be, I quote God on this, when speaking to Abraham about his future posterity: "I will bless those that bless you, and him who curses you I will curse..." (Genesis 12:3) and also, regarding the descendants Ishmael: "He shall be a wild ass of a man; his hand against everyone, and everyone's hand against him..." (Genesis 16:12)
My experiences as a Jew and an Israeli, and my reading of the news, bear this prophecy out, which is why I am not suprised.
