Zionists pollute 100km coastline

[moono]

I meant that there is no difference between 'political' and 'religious'.

For you, who knows.

I also hear that zionists only use saturated fat in all their cooking.

Perhaps you'd care to add a bold H after posts intended to exercise your sense of humour.

Or I could use smilies. Looking at smilies beats having to think.

What's with the 'mincer' comment? Homophobia?

My guess is that he's punning on your username - "chainsaw" = "mincer", etc.

I did wonder that when I saw moono's comment, too, but decided it was probably benign!

I just spoke to my sister who is in Beirut and she said that, amazingly, the oil spill only affected the coastline north of Beirut... the coast opposite Tyre n Sidon is still pristine beautiful.

Thing is, you don't think or discuss. I'm surprised that you resisted the temptation to post some meaningless lyrics.

Your sister is in Beirut? Hope she gets through this ok.

Their sea blockade isn't complete though - I was at a Greenpeace meeting on Sat. and we were talking about how the 'Rainbow Warrior' was ferrying medical supplies from Cyprus to Beirut for MSF because other ships won't take the risk.

Maybe even Israel hasn't the nerve to bomb such a well known ship belonging to an environmental group though.

Rainbow Warrior

FANTASTIC !!!

Now that's what I call non-violent-direct-action.

Israel must pay.

Lebanon's coastline could take up to 10 years to recover from a massive oil spill, the nation's environment minister has said.

[moono]

The Israeli bombing of the Lebanese power plant at Jiyyeh 30 kilometers south of Beirut on July 13 and 15 is believed to have spilled at least 10,000 and up to 35,000 metric tons of oil into the Eastern Mediterranean. Some fear the oil could spread to Turkey and Cyprus.

I'll bet there's a heavy guard on the first oil terminal upstream from Israel.

 

[moono]

The slick now covers 170km (105 miles) of Lebanon's coastline and is spreading out to sea.

Environmentalists and health officials have warned that the spill poses a direct threat to marine life and could increase the risk of cancer among people living in the affected areas.

It could take up to 10 years for the affected coastline to recover, they say.

so the arabs have killed some israelis and the israelis have killed a pile of arabs.
Do you think anyone won ?

The US Christian Zionists - the ones who think that this is 'end times' and are waiting for the 'rapture' certainly think they've won - see article below.
The writer was on Democracy Now talking about this article, and he said that these people don't really care if every last Jew is killed in this fight - so they're Zionist only insofar as it suits their loony [IMO] philosophy.

Birth Pangs of a New Christian Zionism
Max Blumenthal

a couple of paragraphs from the end of the article

More recently, some of Hagee's allies, such as nationally syndicated evangelical radio host Janet Parshall, became ecstatic when Israel and Hezbollah commenced hostilities last month. "These are the times we've been waiting for," Parshall told her listeners in a voice brimming with joy on July 21. "This is straight out of a Sunday school lesson." .....

Thanks to Brog's parrying of Jewish criticism and securing the cooperation of major Jewish organizations, his "brother" Hagee faces few repercussions as he prays for Armageddon. With local CUFI chapters growing across the country, a "rapid response network" of thousands of pastors developing, and an open door to the White House, Brog and Hagee are planning for the long term. "We want to speak to Washington and encourage support for Israel whatever the conflict may be," Brog said. He paused, adding, "Provided of course that Israel's cause continues to be just."

But the renewal of the peace process and rolling back the West Bank settlements would be an unjust cause. For Hagee and for CUFI, all roads lead to a "nuclear showdown: with Iran. Diplomacy would only make God angry. As Hagee warns in Jerusalem Countdown, "Those who follow a policy of opposition to God's purposes will receive the swift and severe judgment of God without limitation."

I find these people really scary - the way they rejoice in people getting killed.
Some Christians!!! But these loons have a lot of influence in the US Govt.

Fighting in the north leaves behind severe environmental damage

Broader environmental picture.

 

[teqniq]

This is a bit rich, from the BBC re cleaning up the mess:

Representatives from Lebanon, Syria, Greece, Turkey and the EU are expected to attend the talks.

I wonder if Israel will decide to attend and possibly contribute to the cleanup? It was after all their bombs which destroyed the power station....

[moono]

I don't suppose they'll offer any assistance unless the tide turns.

I'd say 'I wish it would' if I thought that flora and fauna were in any way contributing to the Zionist cause.

 

[moono]

The conflict in Lebanon has caused devastating damage to the local economy and environment of the ancient port of Byblos.

....


Berj Hatjian wants to know why Israel attacked oil storage tanks right by the sea.

He thinks they must have known what the effect would be, that it would punish whole communities that had nothing to do with the conflict.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/5259102.stm

 

[moono]

As Lebanon takes stock of the damage that has been inflicted on the country, there is increasing evidence that the conflict will leave greater long-term legacies in addition to the huge loss of life and material damage.

The perpetrators should simply not be permitted to sit back and gloat. The European Union and the UN should work to make them pay for the cleaning-up operations.
If they refuse to meet the cost then America might consider shifting the armament billions, given freely to Israel annually, to the clean-up operation instead.

 

[DarthSydodyas]

America's profits from the arms deals should be redirected to Lebanon. Repair every brick and clean every drop of motherfucking water.

Unfortunately I feel there's more chance of pigs flying. Nice ideas though. One thought had occured to me: does anyone know if there's a precedent for individuals or environmental groups to bring an action to an international court against a government for causing environmental damage?

Thinks of pigs with wings again.....

I've asked you before and I'll ask you again Moono... Where do you live...? Because it seems to be cloud-cuckoo land from the above...!

I'm thinking there's more chance Of Moono posting a thread without the word Zionist in the title...

The word "Zionist" does not appear in this thread's title.

My how fucking dramatic of you.

"Zionists pollute 100km coastline"

 

[nino_savatte]

"Zionists pollute 100km coastline"

Oops, so he did but I fail to see your problem with that...or is it the case that you are really defending Israel's claim of "self defence" and its right to pollute hundreds of miles of coastline?

Aye, that's it.

Oh btw, there are quite a few threads that moono has started that don't have the word "Zionist" in the title, so you are being dramatic.

 

[iROBOT]

I've asked you before and I'll ask you again Moono... Where do you live...? Because it seems to be cloud-cuckoo land from the above...!

Bump...I'd like to know too!

now that he/she has shown up in the footie thread....I think we'd all like to know.

 

[moono]

teqniq

does anyone know if there's a precedent for individuals or environmental groups to bring an action to an international court against a government for causing environmental damage?

That's a positive line. Individual governments certainly could, and probably will. I think that perhaps the environmental groups would work in tandem with those governments. If the governments refused requests for action then that might be the opportunity for groups to bring the actions themselves. Guessing though.

 

[moono]

Jaed;

I've asked you before and I'll ask you again Moono... Where do you live...? Because it seems to be cloud-cuckoo land from the above...

Ask away. Anybody that doesn't think that Israel has a responsibility to clean up its mess doesn't deserve a response. Cloud cuckoo land ? Jork.

Oh, and were did I say that...?

I'm guessing, based on his response times, that Moono is either a Yank or a student, or both...
