In my opinion (and the opinion of many around the globe), the United States is at fault today for not using its powers of leadership to intervene — we are the only country who has any real influence over Israel (we sent them some $2.22 billion in military aid last year); Lebanese Prime Minister Fuad Siniora was in tears (as I have been, for days), appealing to the United States, Israel, and the members of the G8 summit to do something to restrain the Israeli army from targeting Lebanese civilians. And yet President Bush and his administration have tried to block the G-8’s plan to call for a ceasefire. Of the eight countries in the G-8 summit, he was the only head of state to oppose a peaceful resolution for both sides.
Fair enough!,not favoring anyside.We the people of other part can just come online to make online blog entries and get hits of other online users.How helpless we are.How helpless I am.
