McGee will come in soon and accuse me of being anti semi without facing the facts.

Word is Hezbollah is returning to Lebanon "to fight Israel". BS, they're there to try to prevent Lebanon's Government from disarming them with help from the Gulf States.

What facts? We got nukes, I see what is happening in France and Sweden, you can't take up arms against your neighbor, lose the fight, and then demand to return to your home. Tough shit for the Paleban. There's plenty of Oil money and jobs in Dubai.
