Hezbollah demands end to offensive - Yahoo! News

Hezbollah demands end to offensive; and rapists would probably like to demand an end to their arrests too. In other news, Israel has been defeated.

Hezbollah's deputy chief, Naim Kassem, asked how the group viewed U.S. demands
for its guerrillas to disarm and make way for an international force in south
Lebanon, said: "America and Israel have no right to get a result from their
defeat."

Funny, when American and Russian troops linked up in Berlin at the end of WW2, Himmler didn't claim it as a German victory. The last I looked, Israeli tanks were rolling through Lebanese territory and Israeli jets were pounding Hezbollah positions, not the other way around. I'll have to redefine my definition of victory. I'd ask Hezbollah's chief, but the Iranian embassy isn't taking calls.

Someone I worked with insisted that there weren't any plots against America by Jihiadis being intercepted by the FBI, CIA, DHS, and other expensive acronyms. His explaination for why there hadn't been any successful attacks on American soil since 9/11 wasn't that competent, vigilant defenders had prevented them but that that nobody was actually attempting to do so.
I shit you not.
This wasn't some deranged paranoid schizophrenic either. A well-educated decent human being actually believes that nobody on this planet hates Americans enough that they would attempt to bomb, behead, shoot, stab, run over with Jeeps, or otherwise wish to harm us.
You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him think, err, drink.
