pointless like the majority of his posts....
I like how just because a few people agree with this guy, emc^2, give him a couple of Kudos, he thrusts his self as a know it all.
His statements gets bolder, his statments become more like "I AM RIGHT".. psst, must be a pathetic life to get off on a few people on the internet agreeing with you.
He sounded like one of those crazy christians that call a movie racists and anti christian, with out seeing the movie. Only stupid sheep would read his "reviews" after he admited not watching it. |
+1 him and emc^2 should quit posting. |

Olmert gave a speech two days ago:
>Ladies and gentlemen, leaders of the world. I, the Prime Minister of
>Israel, am speaking to you from Jerusalem in the face of the terrible
>pictures from Kfar Kana. Any human heart, wherever it is, must sicken
>and recoil at the sight of such pictures. There are no words of comfort
>that can mitigate the enormity of this tragedy. Still, I am looking you
>straight in the eye and telling you that the State of Israel will
>continue its military campaign in Lebanon.
>
>The Israel Defense Forces will continue to attack targets from which
>missiles and Katyusha rockets are fired at hospitals, old age homes and
>kindergartens in Israel. I have instructed the security forces and the
>IDF to continue to hunt for the Katyusha stockpiles and launch sites
>from which these savages are bombarding the State of Israel.
>
>We will not hesitate, we will not apologize and we will not back off.
>If they continue to launch missiles into Israel from Kfar Kana, we will
>continue to bomb Kfar Kana. Today, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
>Here, there and everywhere. The children of Kfar Kana could now be
>sleeping peacefully in their homes, unmolested, had the agents of the
>devil not taken over their land and turned the lives of our children into
hell.
>
>Ladies and gentlemen, it's time you understood: the Jewish state will
>no longer be trampled upon. We will no longer allow anyone to exploit
>population centers in order to bomb our citizens. No one will be able
>to hide anymore behind women and children in order to kill our women
>and children. This anarchy is over. You can condemn us, you can boycott
>us, you can stop visiting us and, if necessary, we will stop visiting
you.
>
>A voice for six million citizens:
>
>Today I am serving as the voice of six million bombarded Israeli
>citizens who serve as the voice of six million murdered Jews who were
>melted down to dust and ashes by savages in Europe. In both cases,
>those responsible for these evil acts were, and are, barbarians devoid
>of all humanity, who set themselves one simple goal: to wipe the Jewish
>race off the face of the earth, as Adolph Hitler said, or to wipe the
>State of Israel off the map, as Mahmoud Ahmedinjad proclaims.
>
>And you - just as you did not take those words seriously then, you are
>ignoring them again now. And that, ladies and gentlemen, leaders of the
>world, will not happen again. Never again will we wait for bombs that
>never came to hit the gas chambers. Never again will we wait for
>salvation that never arrives. Now we have our own air force. The Jewish
>people are now capable of standing up to those who seek their
>destruction - those people will no longer be able to hide behind women
>and children. They will no longer be able to evade their responsibility.
>
>Every place from which a Katyusha is fired into the State of Israel
>will be a legitimate target for us to attack. This must be stated
>clearly and publicly, once and for all. You are welcome to judge us, to
>ostracize us, to boycott us and to vilify us. But to kill us? Absolutely
not.
>
>Four months ago I was elected by hundreds of thousands of citizens to
>the office of Prime Minister of the government of Israel, on the basis
>of my plan for unilaterally withdrawing from 90 percent of the areas of
>Judea and Samaria, the birth place and cradle of the Jewish people; to
>end most of the occupation and to enable the Palestinian people to turn
>over a new leaf and to calm things down until conditions are ripe for
>attaining a permanent settlement between us.
>
>The Prime Minister who preceded me, Ariel Sharon, made a full
>withdrawal from the Gaza Strip back to the international border, and
>gave the Palestinians there a chance to build a new reality for
>themselves. The Prime Minister who preceded him, Ehud Barak, ended the
>lengthy Israeli presence in Lebanon and pulled the IDF back to the
>international border, leaving the land of the cedars to flourish,
>develop and establish its democracy and its economy.
>
>What did the State of Israel get in exchange for all of this? Did we
>win even one minute of quiet? Was our hand, outstretched in peace, met
>with a handshake of encouragement? Ehud Barak's peace initiative at
>Camp David let loose on us a wave of suicide bombers who smashed and
>blew to pieces over 1,000 citizens, men, women and children. I don't
>remember you being so enraged then. Maybe that happened because we did
>not allow TV close-ups of the dismembered body parts of the Israeli
youngsters at the Dolphinarium?
>Or of the shattered lives of the people butchered while celebrating the
>Passover seder at the Park Hotel in Netanya? What can you do - that's
>the way we are. We don't wave body parts at the camera. We grieve
quietly.
>
>We do not dance on the roofs at the sight of the bodies of our enemy's
>children - we express genuine sorrow and regret. That is the monstrous
>behavior of our enemies. Now they have risen up against us. Tomorrow
>they will rise up against you. You are already familiar with the
>murderous taste of this terror. And you will taste more.
>
> In a loud and clear voice:
>
>And Ariel Sharon's withdrawal from Gaza. What did it get us? A barrage
>of Kassem missiles fired at peaceful settlements and the kidnapping of
>soldiers. Then too, I don't recall you reacting with such alarm. And
>for six years, the withdrawal from Lebanon has drawn the vituperation
>and crimes of a dangerous, extremist Iranian agent, who took over an
>entire country in the name of religious fanaticism and is trying to
>take Israel hostage on his way to Jerusalem - and from there to Paris and
London.
>
>An enormous terrorist infrastructure has been established by Iran on
>our border, threatening our citizens, growing stronger before our very
>eyes, awaiting the moment when the land of the Ayatollahs becomes a
>nuclear power in order to bring us to our knees. And make no mistake -
>we won't go down alone. You, the leaders of the free and enlightened
>world, will go down along with us.
>
>So today, here and now, I am putting an end to this parade of
>hypocrisy. I don't recall such a wave of reaction in the face of the
>100 citizens killed every single day in Iraq. Sunnis kill Shiites who
>kill Sunnis, and all of them kill Americans - and the world remains
>silent. And I am hard pressed to recall a similar reaction when the
>Russians destroyed entire villages and burned down large cities in order
to
repress the revolt in Chechnya.
>And when NATO bombed Kosovo for almost three months and crushed the
>civilian population - then you also kept silent. What is it about us,
>the Jews, the minority, the persecuted, that arouses this cosmic sense
>of justice in you? What do we have that all the others don't?
>
>In a loud clear voice, looking you straight in the eye, I stand before
>you openly and I will not apologize. I will not capitulate. I will not
whine.
>This is a battle for our freedom. For our humanity. For the right to
>lead normal lives within our recognized, legitimate borders. It is also
>your battle. I pray and I believe that now you will understand that.
>Because if you don't, you may regret it later, when it's too late. |

On his reply to "It's ok to kill civilians though".
I dunno who's more sadistic hizbullah, the idf or energy mass boy here.
But please enough of the "they started it" BS. Sounds like after weeks of fighting the excuse is dated and stale. |

| Ok I have to make a retraction. Apparently Olmert did NOT say what I just posted. I should have looked into the credibility of the source before I posted. Apparently it was written by someone about what he should've said :o |

To all my "fans" here:
Your opinion matters, keep posting - I think the opinion of few "bright" souls here will change my views and intentions to continue posting.
Actually... no. It won't. You might as well add me to your ignore list now and save yourself energy, frustration, and loss of sleep.
And if you don't agree with me or my views, I don't really give a . Your pitty attempts to showcase your wits and wisdom (or lack thereof) make absolutely no difference to me. So you can just

You're human. You're entitled to make mistakes. At least you tried to educate the lot of us. |

I appreciate your understanding hehe. I mean it is a very strong article, and really does summarize the situation from the Israeli perspective, but it wasn't Olmert's own words. |

Pick one or the other, they project the same message. :p |

You've apologised for an error even though it looks to me as a pro-israeli ghost written article.
It's more than what the other pro-israelis here would have done and that is commendable. |
