Cynical terrorist supporters notwithstanding, we all should condemn terrorist attacks from anywhere against any group. Period.
Christians, Muslims, Jews, atheists, or whatever group you can imagine have have been, both perpetrators as well as victims of terrorism at variuous points in time. Civilized humans with a reasonable moral compass and who are intellectually honest would readily condemn injustice against their worst enemies. Especially the Lebanese who now suffer from the scourge of one of the largest terrorist groups in the world. This terrorist attack on the bus is no different than blowing up a car on the streets of Lebanon. the consequences of this attack are to a large extent borne by these perpetrators.
Bigdig's gloating about this tragedy only highlights the level of its moral standing.
Time magazine is credible and I don't believe for a moment they would be a part of a "STL/Zionist" plot along with Der Spiegel and all those conspiratorial publications. Hezbollah's narrative is boring and believed only by the lemmings who follow them.
As to Le Big's red herring regarding Time Magazine speculation about the evidence: there is a big difference between reporting events and commentary, something that ought to be clear to most people who're familiar with real journalistic standards. Opinions about the evidence are a dime-a-dozen. So let the court go into session and it will all be sorted out. I for one am willing to accept the verdict.
In any case, I love it when the Hezbollah minions mine the same publications they're trying to discredit for favorable quotes. So precious!

Mr. Blanford,
Be very carful. These are criminal assassins with whom you deal, including the current in-cahoots security apparatus.They have demonstrated an amazing ability to underestimate the consequences of their adventures, and will continue to do so. Be very careful.
There are reports now of large anti-Gadhafi demonstrations in Tripoli. Take note Bashar. For each one brave soul on the streets of Syria, there are thousands that stay at home still afraid. But there will be a tipping point, like in Tripoli, and your fate will join that of other dictators in the garbage bin of history.
Le Big,
(I like your "WE read your argument" I suppose this is the royal "we!")
No, Le Big, you read wrong. I am not countering the article at all. I was merely explaining to you the difference between reporting facts and speculating about them. Time is a credible source and you can be reasonably sure they actually conducted an the interview your likes are trying to deny. The Time reporter was also giving certain opinions about the evidence, which is an opinion. Get it? If it helps I can draw pictures.
You're falling into a logical trap. If you believe the Time, as you imply by quoting what you saw as a supportive speculation about the evidence, then you should also believe they conducted an interview, which kills Miqati's credibility.
I am, like the majority of people who seek justice, willing to accept the verdict. Whatever it might be. It will not change my opinion about Hezbollah as a terrorist group, but it will provide an objective evaluation of the evidence

mrbrain,
The next time you try to impotently silence an opinion by telling another person to keep theirs to themselves, simultaneously as you use a freedom of expression tool express yours, your brain should, if at all possible I might say, erect a giant red flag for you to hold off. It makes you look silly, or even worse. It makes you a hypocrite.
Your kind have always displayed this tendency to silence the others. What's scary though, is when your kind hoard weapons to go along with this militant mindset. Dangerous cocktail if you ask me. In your case however, I suspect you're a harmless gadfly.
Bashar, you are going down. You will be remembered as a worthless junior dictator. You chose family/sect power over democratic reforms, butchery and bloodletting over freedoms, the old guard from your father's days over the generation of new ideas. You are finished!

In any event, the important fact is that the puppet masters are identified.
