By jove, I've got it!

I finally figured out what's been bugging me.

The repeated line of the Lebanese is "And you call us terrorists?"
They say we're evil, expansionist, militant imerpialists,
that we're out to kill all of them, that we're taking vengeance against Lenanon.

Well, we're not. We're not evil. We're not imperialist.
I mean, sure, you switch on the news and the paratrooopers and Goaln-chikim that get interviewed kinda celebrates a bit of bloodlust... But that's the soldiers' jobs. You can't blame them for that.

The thing is that the people making the decisions, the people calling the shots and pulling the strings... well they  are not evil.
They may be dumb. And rash, and unable to see two steps ahead of them, but that's just STUPIDITY.

Nassrallah and Ahmedinajad are evil. Ours? They're just insensitive pricks.

Big, big difference. And please don't confuse the two again.

Now, can we get on with the fuckin' peace process?
