But where are you getting from that the rockets are unguided?
One million Jews are not worth one Arab fingernail. It works both ways.
But if you choose to blame a democratic government for taking action against a terrorist network, therefore siding yourself with a terrorist group, since you have been not been critical of the actions of Hezaballah, and even to a point DEFEND their attacks, go right ahead.
Actually it will end, when Israel has a 30 mile buffer zone in every direction outside of their country.

They're mostly hitting open fields and such. One in every 20 hits a city. They basically aim at the general direction of a city, knowing the trajectory and such and try to adjust for wind. Very primitive weapons.
Are they really taking action against a terrorist network or are they taking action against the whole nation? I think that's one of the key points of contention. As I posted just a bit earlier, the quote was that they've started to hit the Lebanese army bases, even though they've stayed out of the fighting. Their heavy-handed approach seems much more like an invasion and a siege more than just to root the terrorists out (and secure the safe return of their soldiers).
A 30 mile buffer zone won't do the job. Neither will a 100 mile buffer. The resentment already caused by this act will never stop the fighting, no matter what the UN says. Really...I just see Lebanon getting wiped off the map to end the conflict, ditto with Palestine.
