Granted Isreal could probably be more careful with their attacks on Lebanon to minimize the casualties. What do you expect Isreal to do, open there borders and tell Hezbollah to come in and kidnap soldiers and fire rockets at there cities and not do anything? They are not fighting for democracy as per say but I would say they are trying to defend themselves. However, as I said above they should probably be doing more to prevent casualties.
What they should do is negotiate. They've been doing it all along. They put themselves in this war and should expect things as such to occur. When you have 9000 of your enemies soldiers don't expect the arabs to sit around idle. They will not put up with it. Period.
Based on this statement it sounds like you think that Isreal should be wiped out completely, or am I wrong? Isreal is an established country and has every right to exist as do the people in Lebanon. Isreal will attack when they are provoked and I don't blame them for this. The kidnapping of soldiers and the rocket attacks on Isreal cities is definatly provocation.
Lebanon is also an established country. What gives the right to Israel to enter its land, destroy its livelihood, and control its ppl? And you should get your story straight before asking questions. The soldiers were kidnapped, then Israel started its huge offensive, then Hizbollah returned with rockets. Those pictures you see on CNN of Haifa "burning up" are from like 5 days ago, and they show them over and over. Every picture of Lebanon is brand new demolition. You can't even compare. So if you think taking out an entire nation in Lebanon is enough justification for the kidnapping of 2 Israeli hostages, then you live in a different world than I do.
