RIP

Ironically, the safest place for Samir Kuntar might very well be the Israeli jail he’s been in for the last 29 years. He’s leaving tomorrow or the next day when the killer of 4 year old Einat Haran and her father Danny will be traded for what’s left of Eldad Regev and Ehud Goldwasser. Here’s hoping he collects his 72 virgins hastily and in our days.

  • He should thank the Israeli political class for its infinite wisdom on his way out the door.

  • I’ll be watching Al-Jazeera all day tomorrow, can’t wait to see the festivities in Lebanon.

  • Hopefully this ends the illusion of the “innocent Lebanese civilians.” Once they start celebrating and ululating, they become just as guilty as Hezbollah. Next time Hezbollah starts a war, Israel needs to make it clear that it will also be at war with Lebanon as a whole.

  • I feel sick that this lunatic is walking free. Israel has completely lost her mind.

    If I thought that Israel would exact revenge, it would pacify me … slightly.

  • Can you believe the entire Lebanese poltical jing bang have actually rolled out the red carpet for this animal? He’s actually being praised by the ex-army head as to being a soldier? Can’t the IAF take out the entire south of lebanon which is currently holding all the wanted members of hezbollah together?

  • As I’m reading the blood dripping comments I think Jewlicious must be a Nazi propaganda site. Is there a better way to convince people that jews are freaking mean-spirited murderous bloodsucking nutcases?

    Do you know what Israel has wrought in Lebanon in 40 years of raids, bombardments, occupation, three of four times trying to ethnically cleanse South Lebanon, two invasions, and decades of alliance with and funding of the Lebanese fascists?

    No you don’t. If you did you’d understand the hatred in Lebanon quite well. But if you did you wouldn’t be who you are.

  • Sasha, it may have escaped your attention, but to demand the death of a certain demography based on its religious adherence is in strong contrast to Jewish beliefs. You will easily find that elsewhere though. BTW, Israeli hospitals treated non-Muslim victims of the Lebanon war for free – they got rejected at Lebanese hospitals and by Lebanese doctors.

    So, if you understood not to fall prey to neo-fascist and islamo-fascist propaganda, you wouldn’t comment the shtuss you do.

    Also, I’d appreciate if you used proper punctuation. Commas are the good manners of text production.

  • Well, if anyone was wondering if Kuntar was considering a career-shift, the following headline is from JPost: “Kuntar: I’ll continue Mughniyeh’s legacy.”

    CK, you wrote: “Here’s hoping he collects his 72 virgins hastily and in our days.”

    You realize Kuntar is Druze – that means he gets reincarnated. No Muslim heaven for him.

    The man killed a father as his 4 year old baby begged him to spare his life, he then systemically bashed her head in with the butt of his rifle.

    Despite this, the Kuntar was not shot on the spot. Instead, he was given an exceedingly fair trial where evidence against him, including the testimony of a pathologists was examined.

    He was then put in a VERY COMFORTABLE JAIL where he got FATTER & FATTER! He got to complete a degree at the expense of the “Great Satan”, he got visits, he was even able to court and marry in an Israel jail.

    What exactly do you not like about this? What is hateful? This killer of a 4 year old, the scum of scums, coward of cowards is a hero to you and yours. I ask: WHAT TYPE OF SOCIETY ARE YOU RAISING when you cheer such people?

    Are these your role models?

    Incorrect, Lebanon was a Christian nation, a peaceful nation. It’s art & dialect were known worldwide, people from all over the world came to its beaches. Then came Jordanian Black September when IN ONE MONTH OF PEACETIME KING HUSSEIN KILLED MORE “PALESTINIANS” THAN ISRAEL HAS IN 50 YEARS OF HER DEFENCE! None of the Arab states would take in the Pals, nobody but the Christian Lebanese.

    And as soon as the PLO, PFLP and others came into Lebanon — they began the systemic extermination of the Chrisitian Maronites, who had been there for thousands of years.

    THIS IS THE TRUE tragedy of Lebanon. The Christians retreated into Israel, Israel is the only state that would aid them against a population they had taken in, and now had turned on them.

    These groups are the occupiers of Lebanon, these groups, which eventually included Iranian trained, funded, armed and commanded Hezbollah that:
    – occupy Lebanon
    – kill the majority of Lebanons dead
    – attack Israel from within Lebanon before retreating to Christian villages, so that the Christian civilians bear the brunt of the justified retaliation.

    YOU CLAIM ETHNIC CLEANSING?! Where is your evidence? If Israel wanted to cleanse the population then why is there ONE living, breathing Lebanese? Israel could turn the nation into a parking lot in one night!

    Why did Israel send in ground troops and expose its young men to danger when it could have conducted the whole war fromt he air? YOUR ARGUMENT MAKES NO SENSE!

    No you don’t. If you did you’d understand

    I am more than willing to debate you in public, on this or any topic. You have my gaurantee that you will not be censored (so long as you do not use profanity & argue based on fact rather than emotion).

  • One last thing Sasha, you and your ilk love to say things like: “As I’m reading the blood dripping comments I think Jewlicious must be a Nazi propaganda site” but you never elaborate, you never show examples or explaian your empty rheotric. This kind of stuff may pass as intelligence at BBC or blogs like jewssansfrontieres but you’ll find that those on this side of the argument are much more likely to listen (and be convinced) if you actually explain that which you spew.

    Anyone can claim genocide, or ethnic cleansing: I ethnically cleansed my kitchen this morning… But to be taken seriously there needs to be some content, something real behind the big, powerful words.
