Israel blames U.S., France for arming Lebanon

Share:

Israel which received over $1.6 Trillion from the US since 1973 is now blaming U.S., France for arming Lebanon.

Haaretz newspaper reported that Israel will launch a diplomatic campaign calling on the United States and France to stop their military assistance to Lebanon following yesterday’s exchange of fire on the northern border.

“Countries are providing the Lebanese army with advanced weaponry for it to fight Hezbollah, and instead the Lebanese army is using the weapons to fire on IDF soldiers,” a senior official in Jerusalem said yesterday.

“The United States has given Lebanon approximately $400 million over the past year to purchase arms, despite Israel’s objections. France has also sent a great deal of weaponry to Lebanon, including advanced anti-tank missiles”, the paper reported .

Haaretz wrote that Israel is expected to ask the U.S. Congress to limit its approval of financial aid to Lebanon for arms purchases.

A Lebanese military analyst who is familiar with the Lebanese and Israeli capabilities told Ya Libnan: “Israeli claim must be the joke of the century.”

He added: ” Israel gets the most sophisticated and up-to-date offensive weapons that the US has ever manufactured and it is all for free while Lebanon has been getting the most basic weapons that are only suitable for internal security purposes.”

Washington has funneled more than $1 billion toward three missile defense systems under development in Israel, U.S. Rep. Steve Rothman, D-N.J. said on Tuesday.

Rothman noted that the House subcommittee since 2007 appropriated $750 million for the Arrow and David’s Sling anti-missile systems and $205 million toward Israel’s Iron Dome program in 2010. An appropriations defense subcommittee in the U.S. House of Representatives on July 27 appropriated $217 million in funding to help develop a joint missile defense system with Israel. He added

Iron Dome is designed to combat short-range missile threats from the Gaza Strip and Lebanon.

      “Stupid Hitsaeli’s!” you have alot of nerve to refer to Israeli’s in this manner! I’m a Jew! and resent your blatantly hateful false accuasations as to Israels days of playing victims and crying Holocaust. Israel, and the rest of world Jewry is not, nor has not ever “played victim” to the Holocaust-there were millions of non-Jews that lost their lives in the Holocaust-unless you, or any other of the viscious Anti-Jews are,nt aware of this, or choose not to tell the world of what atroscities the Nazis committed against the millions of non Jews. Yes! you arrogant and ignorant “thick skulled bigot”this is the truth-look it up! Zionists are not war lover’s. They are fighting terrorism-they are fighting what belongs to them, and to them only, their country!!! Israel. You are to be pitied. You are an ignorant moron.

      1. Cynthia hello,
        That’s “Stupid Hitsaeli’s!” from lebanon or the jews gene from Nazis’ son, what do you prefer ?

        Hey cynthia, I think what r is trying to say is that you guys use the holocaust as an excuse for everything that Israel does. We all know that other people died in WW2, 5 million Polish, 20 million Russians and a lot more from other nations. People are not ignorant or bigots, but when the media around the world broadcasts holocaust shows about the jews every week and non about the other countries, what do you expect in return. I live in Australia, and SBS (a multicultural station) every week it shows how bad the jews had it in the holocaust, but never, ever for once I heard the Russians, Poles, Reomanians, Ukranians winge about it so much like you guys do. Fu%^#en get over it, every country and religion has experienced genocide, look at Rwanda, Bosnia, Armenia, etc etc were massacred in cold blood, you never see any programs or whining to the world like you guys do.

        Move On & Peace

  2. I just can’t believe israel asking the US to stop sending Humvee to Lebanon? oops wait the Humvee don’t shoot do they? israel stop being a wimp and fight with fairness. you got the most sophisticated weapons in the world not just from the US. But its developping very high tech weapons that even the US may not even possess. Stop wanting to control the world, otherwise lots of people might turn a blind eye on hezbollah. The israeli leaders are bunch of morons and its so ridiculus of them to think that the US and France given lebanon high tech weapons. Now i can see why Iran is mad at them lol.

      Welcome back Elias,
      Long time no seen Bro.
      I wouldn’t be surprised if God isn’t mad at them for all the false claims they attribute to Him.
      Fist, they claim to be chosen by God, second they claim that he promised them Palestine. Allah never told me any of that. I bet Jesus would have heard something about that if these claims.

          Elias, Good to have you back my friend.

          I’m sorry to hear that you’re having issues to deal with… This must me another test in life; One can never undo what has been done, But whatever was done , can be an opportunity to better things… Though no one can go back and have a fresh start, anyone can start from now, and have a brand new end.

          Anytime time I have a problem, I say “worse things could happen in life”

          As for The resistance, He seems to be fed up with the rudeness, and useless arguments. He and I are staying in touch through email.

          Mustapha hasn’t been around for about a week. I hope all is well with him too.

          Have a pleasant Sunday

    This is why the world is all turning against Israel,they are Arrogant, above the law and reckless, the world is getting sick of their blatant disregard to UN resolutions and their deliberate and unbiased murder of innocent palestinian people without being held accountable for any if it.

    u all make me laugh if the Lebanese army had the same arms and technology as Israeli you will see the Lebanese flag flying on Israeli soil the Lebanese army has more balls to fight a war than the little boys with sophisticated toys (Israeli army )payed by the u.s.

    WOW! Can you say crazy? OK make the US and France halt funds to Lebanon but only IF the US halts the astronomical amount of money that allows Israel to fester on.

  9. This is really a joke, Israel for once be in touch of reality and take responsibility of your action and stop the atrocity and killing of innocent people especially children, referring to 2007 war on Lebanon. it is all about power to you stop playing the victim here like a crying baby that really shows how ignorant you people are with no sympathy and no humanity to human kinds, Judaism, Christianity and Islam promote peace and justice.

  10. People….all I can say is this: We are all (and unfortunately) pawns on the table controlled by few on top who have been coordinating and working side-by-side with one mission in mind: POWER, MONEY and CONTROL. Whether you are American, Russian, Israeli, European, Lebanese, etc. it does not matter. This is a world organized mob that has many faces and at the end of the day…they don’t care about their fellow man. Maybe this could shed some light… http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article26047.htm

    I think the US should stop funding israel’s army. They provided them with advanced weaponry to shoot children in Gaza, but instead they are using them to shoot lebanese soldiers!

  12. What Israel is thinking Lebanese Army weapons that are provided by France and USA maybe will fall at the hand of Resistance and used against Israel that is where the objection coming from, At the same time Lebanese Army needs to get stronger so any decent by parties against Government is met by strong Lebanese Army ,so it is a catch 22 situation.

    Israel did not anticipate that the Lebanese will unify and stand together to protect their country. They were hoping that the US donated weapons would be used internally so the Lebanese kill each other and do Israel’s deeds.

    Surprise! It aint happening biotch.

    Now they want their weapons back HAHAHA.

    Another note I want to make, why did the French provide advanced anti-tank weapons to the LAF if the goal was to control HA? HA does not have any tanks. That is either a stupid mistake by the French or maybe they don’t care if the LAF uses these weapons on IDF.

    The frogs, you never know what they are thinking. At least the LAF will use these weapons instead of surrendering like the French always do LOL.

  14. They sound like a bunch of spoiled brat cry babies. Get real. Makes me sick.
