[QUOTE]Originally posted by newark: [QB] Israel invaded Lebanon in the 1980's and for many years afterwards the conflict was a drawn on lives and money. This became an issue in the national election for prime minister. The winning candidate promised a withdrawal of troops from Lebanon. Troops were withdrawn from Lebanon. Hezbollah, based in Lebanon and supported by the Iranina government, proclaimed this a victory against the Israeli government and people. This reactionary organization stepped up its terrorism against the Israeli nation by providing additional support to the Palestinians and made a proclamation that war wouldn't end until all Jews were in the sea. After suffering many casualties on both sides and the building of a wall to prevent further incursions, the Israelis and the Palestinians are living in a surreal world where both are entrapped by their own anger and hatred. My point-if we abandon Iraq, as Kerry has suggested to the UN or NATO, the leaders of Al Queda and other terrorist organizations will proclaim this a victory. They believe Americans are incapable of facing death and will do whatever it takes to preserve the lives of our children from death. When faced by an enemy who believes this, and is willing to sacrifice their young, showing weakness is not the option available to us. I don't agree with the handling of the Iraqi situation for we are conceding cities to the theocrats and the reactionaries as has happened in Fallujah and Najaf. I feel, however, that Senator Kerry's stance is not the correct solution either and his position at times has mirrored the president's on occasions. [/QB][/QUOTE]
