Here's one from the idiots on the other side.

Israeli girls write messages on shells ready to be fired toward Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon.

Chances are it will kill a girl her age. Ah well.

Yes, it's generous of them to assume Hezbollah can read.

This is a time honored tradition. Some of my friends have pics of warheads saying things like "f**k you raghead" and all that.

You have to dehumanize the enemy before you can kill them. Otherwise you might think "Hey these people are just like me, there's got to be a better way".

And do you think it wise to train little girls to dehumanize Lebanese? Bad enough if the soldiers do it, but I suppose that's war - it seems sick to involve children in warfare like that.

Nothing going on over there is "wise".

with all due respect, the training was accomplished by slaughtering schoolgirls, bombing occupied buses, restaurants, discos, and about a thousand launched missles over the past year.

And it's not lebanese, it's hezbollah.
