“Humanitarian Issues Of Common Interest”

How Nassrallah and Olmert justify doing business with each other..

Hezbollah’s media never utters the words “Israel”, “Israeli Government” or “Israeli”. The Party of God usually prefers “Occupied Palestine”, “Zionist entity’s Government” and “Zionist enemy” respectively. Across the border, the Israelis always couple the word “Hezbollah” with either “Terrorist Organization” or “Radical Islamists”. Their PM Ehud Olmert vowed never to negotiate with them.
They hate each other and they will do all they can to avoid humanizing each other. they won’t even look at each other and prefer German intermediaries. The wars they’re fighting are never with fellow human beings, they are with “terrorists”, “baby killers”, “imperialists” and “land grabbing monsters”. The missiles they drop on each other kill innocent bystanders, but deep down, they don’t care because they’re “all the same”, they’re all evil blue-blooded dogs.
Too bad they have business to do with each other. And it’s hilarious that they chose “Humanitarian Issues Of Common Interest” as the reason why they’re doing this business. The people who like to film and broadcast videos of wounded soldiers groaning in excruciating pain before dying, are doing business with the people who bulldoze foreign peace activists and use Palestinian civilians as human shields, all under the banner of humanitarian considerations.
Stop trying to explain yourselves. Just exchange the damn prisoners and bodies and leave humanitarianism out of this.
