Two countries that are sending troops are Malaysia and Indonesia, two
Muslim countries that don't even have diplomatic relations with Israel. I
wonder who's side they'll be on? Need I ask?
UN resolution 1701, a resolution that all sides agreed to, mandated that
Hezbollah disarm, and that Hezbollah be forbidden to attack Israel. Now
Lebanon has unilaterally changed the rules of the game. Lebanese
troops will not be empowered to disarm Hezbollah. Lebanese troops will
be forbidden to look for Hezbollah weapons caches. I heard yesterday
that even if Lebanese troops see a Hezbollah fighter with a rocket
launcher they are not allowed to stop the Hezbollah fighter from firing a
rocket at Israel. What a joke!

Another cartoon showed a turtle with a flag of the U.S. emblazoned on
its shell. The turtle was laying eggs that had a Star of David on them.
Note that one could also have a cartoon showing a turtle representing
Iran, laying eggs that represent Hezbollah. IRAN IS A DANGEROUS
COUNTRY. Talk about the axis of evil!
Message for President Bush: New Key Ron! The sooner the better. The
Iranian government is a fabrication. The Persian entity, the self-
proclaimed "Islamic Republic of Iran," is a fabricated government that
was built on the shambles of the Shah's Peacock Throne. Reports about
the corruption and brutality of the Shah's government are a myth. Iran
should be wiped off the map. Iranians should all move to Antarctica;
that would be a more suitable location for Iran. Let them exercise their
imperial ambitions over the penguins.
