W steps up to the plate

Story:""The best way to stop the violence is for Hezbollah to lay down its arms and to stop attacking. And therefore I call upon Syria to exert influence over Hezbollah," Bush said about the flare-up that could overshadow this weekend's meeting of world powers.

The U.S. pressed for the Group of Eight's approval of a statement identifying Hezbollah as the main culprit and emphasizing the importance of maintaining a democratic Lebanon.

Israel launched its offensive after Hezbollah guerrillas crossed the Israel-Lebanon border and captured two Israeli soldiers on Wednesday. Since then, Israel has bombarded Lebanon's airport and main roads while Hezbollah, backed by both Syria and Iran, has launched hundreds of rockets into Israel.

Bush blamed Hezbollah's rocket attacks at Israel from its base in southern Lebanon, and the militant group's capture of the two Israeli soldiers for triggering the fierce fighting."

And thats calling it the way it is. I don't feel an ounce of sympathy for the region that declared war on Isreal, they are getting what they asked for, open war. And now that open war is upon them, I don't think they like it much.

Why is Iran on the Axis of evil? Because they support Hezbollah, and have declared that Isreal should be wiped off the map, along with well advanced nuclear ambitions.
And why is Syria on the UN security council???????????????? The abundant lack of sense in that organization is earthshattering.
