Friday morning misery

Whatever the provocation, whatever the reason, children should not be the ones paying the price of war...
Please.... can't someone stop this madness??

Stop War. Doesn't matter who wins or loses. In the end all will suffer.

Qatash

You know, I don't remember seeing your bleeding hearts in here when Souk's (Children in the Souks were killed) are blown up in Iraq by Arab groups...I did not see you in here when the trains were blown up in India either (You think there weren't any children on the trains?) by Arab groups again.

But as soon as Israel attacks you jump all over it. You think, maybe, that you are BIASED in some way?

Let's discuss...

I don't know what Hezbollah wants to achieve with this madness.

Amr, you're nuts when you say "I really wish that Israel makes even a bigger mistake which would lead the rest of Arabic countries to get really mad and look to finish this fucking Israeli shit once and for all."
What the hell are you talking about!

Israel has left Lebanon pretty much alone since it withdrew 6 years ago. Now Hezbollah playing a regional power game bring them back into it. Iran says it will consider an attack on Syria as an attack on the Islamic nation and will respond. WHAT ABOUT LEBANON! Syria fights by proxy while keeping its beloved occupied Golan front quiet!

Arabs might be cheering Hezbollah but it's my country paying the price and getting torn to pieces! Leave us alone!

Syrians, Jordanians, Egyptians, Sudanese and others sit at home, watch the war on TV and pay lip-service to Lebanese, Iraqi and Palestinian resistance. You are fighting with our blood and you want to fight till the last one of us is killed.

HYPOCRITES!

Lebanon has suffered so much in recent times. I was hoping that peace had finally arrived for this beautiful place and now this happens.

Yes, I take the side of the Arabs when it comes to Israel, yes they are ruthless killers, but Hezbollah will destroy Lebanon and they are responsible for provoking a war that the lebanese people do not want.

"or is it because israel isn't the offending party that you consider our struggle to be petty & meaningless?"

What are you, nuts!

Don't put words in my mouth. Read my post again. Get your facts straight and don't be so sensitive.

I see the Sudanese out demonstrating in support of Hezbollah and crying out for Jihad so spare me the posturing, crocodile tears and don't patronize me. I don't recall the Lebanese people out demonstrating for or against the government of Sudan, not because wedon't care but because we realize, from bitter experience, what it means to posture and be more royalist than the king.

What we do is demonstrate for our own causes, we're out in the hundreds of thousands, over a million people for what we believe in. Now when did any other Arab population go out and demonstrate voluntarily for their own cause in a non-governmental organised demonstration?!

You're upset about what's happening in Sudan, fine. You love your country? Ok. Do something for it. Do something about it instead of being so quiet and timid.

Grow up and stop playing victim instead of "where were you this" and "where were you" that.

And yes, I still resent any of you fighting with our blood from the safety of your homes and couches.

Rally to your own cause and leave ours alone and if the truth hurts you, tough.

Unfortunately my "lame" argument, as you describe it, is what the world sees.

My statements do not change the feelings of affinity I have for the Sudanese people.

You are another close-minded Arab refusing to acknowledge the truth of an overwhelming majority of the population (throughout the Arab world) acting on much emotion and very little brains, wasting tremendous resources and doing very little to get out of the dark ages in which they linger.

The "a bunch of delluded idiots went out on demonstrations supporting hezbollah" you describe reflects the mentality of most of the population. It's "deluded" and not "delluded" by the way.

Suit yourself while your Sudan and most of the Arab world continues to languish in poverty, government-organized demonstrations, illiteracy and self-pity. That's the big picture.

You should do something for your country instead of transferring the frustrations of your inadequacies onto others and getting upset whenever someone mentions the truth about your situation.

We will do what we have always done. We will rebuild and move on instead of retelling for the umpteenth time the sad tale of oppression, occupation, conspiracies and the other items on the long-list of grievances.

Maybe I shouldn't have used the term hypocrites. Schizophrenics is more like it. There are no hateful remarks in my post, just a descriptive image of the situation as it is.

You don't want to admit reality that's up to you. It doesn't change your sad situation.

Bigoted I am not. Look closer to home to where you're from, Sudan, for bigotry and racism where the Northern Arab population describes the southern black people as "niggers/slaves".

And yes, I have been to Sudan and have heard and seen it and much more with my own eyes and ears.

Haven't bothered reading past your first sentence.
Chill out, have a beer. Stay amused.

"Sore loser". Ha ha. That the best you can do?
Reminds me of the argumentative abilities of a 5-year-old.
Good to know you can spell, and SHOUT it out. Now learn some grammar and history.
Stay amused.

Frankly I tend to agree with and don't see much wrong with what E46M3 said, mochfrap. Don't take it so personally, hon.
But this is a democratic forum so you're entitled to your opinion too.

Chill out God not everyone is going to get along with everyone else!

/-a-t-/sandie?
Chat room pro, are we?
Live in the real world instead of your fish bowl.

lol..thank you, dohagirl

nothing personal, people..nothing personal! i'm totaly and completely over myself..tee hee..

"You know what armchair activists are like. Nice touch, chatroom pro"

[...]

oh I'm sorry was that supposed to be insulting?

oh wait..

OUCH!

there..that should have made the highlight of your day.

congratulations! you just gave a whole new meaning to the term "basket case"

move along, buddy. nobody likes a broken record.

Very persuasive argument. BAM!!! I'm flattened.

I just had to ask.
I'm also curious as to how you will attack me personally after my remarks.

In your remarks to Mochafrap:
Hey kiddo, get out of your comfort zone and go do something for your people instead of suffering from paranoid delusions and persecution mania.
Sharp of tongue, long on words and very low on real world experience.
When was the last time you were with your people and seen what their life is really like and why it's so?
I've seen more human misery than you can ever imagine, first-hand.
Cut the lol's, :D's and and the other teeny chatroom crap and try to remove yourself from your mall, cafe-culture and sheltered and pampered daddy's girl life. Mocha and frappuccino indeed

If commenting on how other people dress is racism, then how do you classify your remarks?
Do you know mochafrap? what do you know about her?
paranoid delusions? you have seen more human misery than mochafrap can imagine? mochafrap is a mall, cafe-culture and sheltered and pampered daddy's girl life?

What on earth do you know about her?

Simple jokes about other people's way of dress is intolerable racism while these kind of personal attacks you launch on people you don't know is acceptable?

Good Comment Yalla. You see Sandie doesn't, in fact, realize that she is a hypocrite, and a prejudiced one at that. Even more so she is a hypocrite who can't read (or she would have noticed that I'm not looking to get laid or lonely) and one who is incapable of answering anything she doesn't like without using insults and jeers.

It is quite obvious that Sandie has the education of your typical American Red Neck (and honey that comment WAS meant to be demeaning and prejudiced) and doesn't know how to have an actual educated conversation since she probably never got past grade 12. Or on the other hand she THINKS she is educated because she went to some pricey university like Yale or Harvard where they taught her to hug trees and live your life peachy keen and sterotype free without actually teaching her anything of value.

And what misery have you seen HONEY? You are from the USA and you compare yourself to someone from Sudan or Lebanon? Go out there and get into the real world and stop accusing others of not doing so.

thank you yalla and dohagirl..I couldn't have said it any better.

dearest most precious sandie [...] just cause you call me a pampered kid and make fun of my "teeny chatroom crap" and my numerous typos doesn't make your argument any less piteous. and obviously i "have the wit and potentially lucid mind" to rise above your ludicrous analysis of my "ignorant" background and your presumptive knowing-for-a-fact of what is actually right for me and for my people. FYI..knowing a couple of literary titles does not make you an expert on sudanese geopolitics..and it sure as hell does not count as "seeing more human misery than one can ever imagine" so spare me the sycophantic bullshit.

oh and last time i checked poking fun at people's sex lives didn't exactly amount to "arguing with intelligence"..-tsk tsk- sounds to me like someone isn't taking their own advice!

e46M3..i have nothing to say to you more than what's already been said. i made my point and you made yours, and clearly we're not going to agree on anything. don't toss insults my way cause not only will you have them thrown back in your face time and time again..but the only thing you'll continue to insult is your own intelligence (that goes for you too by the way, sandie).

give it a rest, folks...it's over. life is too short to waste on absurdities.

">

That's uncalled for. Way below the belt.

e46M3, R2D2, DDT or whatever u are: Go to hell.

much-a-crap: I'll be back for you later.

Sorry Qatarcat, I'll ignore her from now on. She's obviously just on this forum to try to start fights anyway. :D

mochafrap, I'll go with the first part of your statement "e46M3..i have nothing to say to you more than what's already been said. i made my point and you made yours, and clearly we're not going to agree on anything."

And possibly even the second part up to "time and time again.." but certainly not the last bit.

This could go on and on but I think there's a limit that shouldn't be crossed and that threshold has been passed.

This thread has degenerated way beyond what I intended to say, i.e. I'm sick of people in the Middle East jumping up and down on TV cheering the "resistance" while my country is being systematically f***ed, smashed and trashed, those that urge the destruction of Israel while fighting with Lebanese blood from the comfort and safety of their homes.

I am fuming.

****************************************************************************************************

Sandie, another and more apt handle you forgot to mention is TNT.

As AC/DC sing:

"If this is Hell, then you can say,
It's heavenly...
Hell ain't a bad place to be!."

So there you have it.

despite our differences you should know i really am sorry for what is happening to your country and its' people.

i wouldn't wish it on anyone..and certainly not Lebanon after its' tragic years of sectarian blood-shed.

You are sick!!!! What the hell is up with you????

very sad!!!! How can this person still be allowed on this site with that kinda attitude?

i am not saying that people should not be allowed to speak their mind just that what she is writing is just plain sick! And i am sure in the small print it said NO TROLLS ALLOWED

Where has super gone he has not had his say yet but i do not have all day to hear it! lol

It is a little funny but i really think Qatari should think about kicking it off as it is just too below the belt!

Oh i don't know i only half read his posts bless him! I think he might be on holiday or under a different name

I know, is there anyway we can warn her QatarCat?

HAHAHAHAHAHA

nappies? napkins? TAMPONS?! i swear to god..your skull must be filled up to your nostrils with sand! WTF are you going on about?

come on you guys..she's not a troll! even trolls aren't THAT dim-witted! hell..even red bricks aren't THAT dimwitted.

thats okay, sandie..you may go chase your tail now. i think you've definitely earned yourself that privilege as village idiot!

tsk tsk tsk..... dear oh dear oh dear.... i read all of your posts and this unfolding saga with amusement. i beg to differ with all of you... you can psycoanalyse and probe all you want about sandies motives but its quite obvious really, shes just sexually frustrated and i am disappointed that none of you guys have had the common decency to step up and do the girl a good deed. to uphold the spirit of help and assistance this web forum was built on, im afraid the duty falls on my shoulders, its a burden but someone has to do it.

so sandie baby, send me an email and ill make it my personal goal to put the smile back on your face and the spring back in your step.

Haven´t seen my husband since April. :(

I love how this topic has gone from Israeli's killing children to sex. :D

Ya, I think I need to work on the whole relieving the sexual frustration thing to. :(
