    I don't know what to think either, however there are a few things I DO think about this:

    -Israel said, "Ok, enough if this shit." *KABOOM*
    -Labenon does nothing to stop Hezbollah
    -Israel's attacks are strategic
    -Go Israel

    They why can't Lebanon do what they want, and not try to stop Hezbollah...(not aimed directly at you ZeTurbo)

    They went to war because allegedly 2 soldiers were "captured", while how many palestinian militants are sitting in Israeli jails...

    How many civilians have they killed in the last 2 days? And how is it justified? (apart from them having the support of GWB)

    Neither has Lebanon. I'd hazard a bet to say there are more Lebanese Australians then there are Israeli.

    It's a huge overreaction on the part of israel and I'm not surprised, frankly.

    Equal blame for the start of the situation, but the Israeli army is the better equipped of the pair....what, with the backing of the US against a rogue terrorist state and all.

    There will be no winners from this situation.

    blame it all on the british, the promised Israel to the Jewish population after the war, then they promised that it would be an Arab state, and when the shit really hit the fan, they handed it over to the un

    It's really Isreal against Iran, the ammuntition supplied to Hezbollah is largely supplied by Iran who's leader said Isreal should be blown off the face of the earth.

    Surely you mean the United States against Iran. Israel is backed by the US as much as Hezballah is backed by Iran. Politically and militarily. Don't make that mistake again.

    You can't blame the British, only the people in the British government at the time when it took place.

    Quite frankly, I am stunned that the international community is doing approximately bugger all about this situation.

    Lets recap.

    1 soldier is kidnapped, so the first thing the Israelis do is bomb the powerstation in Gaza so that 75% of the population won't have any power for the next 6 months, followed by kidnapping of democratically elected Hamas government officials (apparently kidnapping Israeli people is bad, kidnapping Palestinians is fine & dandy), and bombing of "government" & "terrorist" facilities, except for some reason, instead of killing anyone in the Palestinian government or any terrorists, the Israelis just seem to keep killing loads of women and children. Nice.

    Then, in an effort to diffuse the cituation, when 2 more Israeli soldiers are kidnapped, we have pretty much all-out war in an instant.

    How the hell can Israel ever expect Arab terrorists to let them live in peace when they pull stunts like this?

    There has been no effort for diplomacy, just bombing.

    Imagine if a Canadian man, not directly representing the official government, kidnapped 3 Americans - would America start bombing all of Canada the instant that they found out?

    I find it very hard to feel sympathy for Israel when it is becoming a genocidal maniac of a country that sees the only way to achieve "peace" in the middle-east, is to bomb all Arabs into submission (with USA planes, tanks & bombs) and occupy their countries.
    Thanks for all the fish

    They also bombed an airport, so no civilians can get out of the war zone that they created...

    and why do so many people spell it Isreal?
