I am not too sure how citizins are supposed to know that airports, highways, and powerplants are Hezbollah strongholds.
In my opinion, I find the leaflets insulting. The whole, "I warned I was going to bomb, it is your fault you died" mentality is just not right to me.
The irony of the whole thing is that you have one side who is trying as hard as possible to hit any target(civilian or not) and is doing a really poor job at it, and you have the other side who is trying not to hit any civilians and they also are doing a really poor job at it.

No, you have one side saying they are not trying to hit civialian targets. There is a big difference between saying something, and actually doing it!
And of course the people on this site wouldn't leave their homes. They have a diferent opinion when you place similar constraints in them. Then it's a different story and requires different options.
Just like when they **** and moan about someone operating in civilian areas, or having bases in civilian areas. These clownshoes should come on down to America and see where they position their bases and what is around those. MacDill was right in the heart of Tampa bay. Luke AFB and Williams Gateway here in Phoenix are both surrounded by residential communities. The military industrial complex is right in the heart of Mesa, Tempe, Phoenix, Avondale and Glendale. These would be rich targets and they are embedded in high density population areas of civilians. Both sides use this strategy to protect their assets.
It just makes me shake my head when I see people say how one side is doing something that the other is not. It just proves how uniformed they are, and how easily sucked in by the media they are. After all, this whole thing was started by the kidnapping of a soldier, not the assassination and imprisonment of the state representives of the Palestinians. The noise in the media makes it appear to be a simplistic one sided issue.
