Wacky theories about the war

Die Welt.de has a great post on wacky theories about the war. They collected interviews with Israeli-bashing personalities from all over the globe and summarized them with links back to the original content. The article is great read and serves as an eye-opener on those who believe that Israel is the bad actor in this tragedy.

Mohammad Tabaar writing for the BBC

"From Iran's perspective, it is better to confront Israel in the future. Butfrom Israel's point of view, this can be seen as pre-emption."'

Prof. Jorge Hirsch

“As the nuclear holocaust unfolds, some will remember the Lebanon conflict andsubsequent Iran war and blame it on Israel.”

Noam Chomsky

'The arguments, accusations and vows, all serve as a distraction in order to divert world attention from a long-term military, economic and geographic practice whose political aim is nothing less than the liquidation of the Palestinian nation."

Sheikh Muhammad

“As a Muslim ummah we are supposed to condemn and object to all forms of aggression and oppression. As a Muslim, we are not allowed to attack others but at the same time we are not supposed to remain an 'easy target' for others. So what is going on has not been initiated by Muslims because Muslims did not occupy any nation or drive their people away. It is the legitimate right of people under occupation and aggression to resist and defend their own lands and families.”

Hassan Nasrallah speaking for Hezbollah

“The Israeli media is talking about Maroun Al-Ras as if it is 'the conquest of Stalingrad.' What actually happened there, according the number of martyrs and the Israelis killed and wounded, is a reflection of the weakness of the Israeli Army.”

My favorite quote is from the comments:
