Israel & Lebanon

Cry for them as they would cry for you.  If you do not believe they would cry for you, then cry harder for the greater compassion that we wish to light the world with; we want more than war and hate and retaliation - We owe the dead and wounded much more, but it is a start.

Israel has hit hundreds of targets in Lebanon as part of its effort to free two soldiers captured by Hezbollah guerrillas.

Israel is imposing an air and sea blockade on Lebanon following the two soldiers' capture by Hezbollah.

Raids on targets across south Lebanon have killed at least 35 civilians, while another died in Hezbollah attacks on Israel.

More than 70 Katyusha rockets have hit Israel in the past 24 hours, the IDF said.

What are we fighting for (Live - Ed Kowalczyk)

Battle flag in the bassinet
Oil and blood on the bayonet
Crowded downtown hit the floor
What are we fightin' for?

What are we fightin' for?
What are we fightin' for?

The world got smaller but the bombs got bigger
Holocaust on a hairpin trigger
Aint no game so forget the score
What are we fightin' for?

What are we fightin' for?
What are we fightin' for?
What are we fightin' for?

What will I tell my daughter?
What will you tell your son?
Where were all the doves?
That we were nothing but a shadow,
a faceless generation devoid of love?

The crucifix ain't no baseball bat
Tell me what kind of God is that?
Ain't nothing more godless than a war
So what are we fightin' for?

What are we fightin' for?
What are we fightin' for?
What are we fightin' for?

What will I tell my daughter?
What will you tell your son?
Where were all the doves?
That we were nothing but a shadow,
A faceless generation…

What are we fightin' for?
