Mideast Headline With No Surprise - #1
Sometimes you see headlines and stories that make you say, "Duhhhh." Here's one. Any surprise here?
Mideast war rages on despite UN peace resolution
Israeli troops fought gun battles with Hizbollah in south Lebanon and warplanes hit roads and bridges across the country on Sunday, hours after the U.N. Security Council received a draft resolution to end the war.
Maybe the U.N. should pass ten or fifteen more resolutions. Why, that paper war might have worked in Iraq if given another twenty years and can work in Lebanon once everyone on one side is dead.
The U.N. created Israel in 1948 and there has not been a permanent peace there since. Why do nations pretend that the U.N. can do anything for peace anywhere?

Yeah!, tell me that the shooting war that Bushies brought on has worked. Presently I hear that the Iraqi "republicanization" has lasted longer that WWII or the Vietnam boondoggle.
Why is it that Republicans start wars, could it be because they can't produce in the economic area?
Wars do tend to blur the picture.
