There’s nothing to be done…except what’s being done. The news this morning tells of more Lebanese civilian deaths – women and children – as the result of Israeli bombing. But because of the way Hezbollah fights and hides, too many civilians will die on both sides of the conflict. That is not Israel’s fault. The blame for civilian deaths rests with Hezbollah and the Lebanese government that has allowed those terrorists safe haven. Israel should not be losing the PR war: They are in the right.
Question: What is the difference between an innocent 9 year-old Lebanese boy and a deadly Hezbollah terrorist?
Answer: About 6 years.
The sad fact is that too many Lebanese families support terror organizations and raise their children to become terrorists/terror sympathizers. While these civilians should not be deliberately targeted (going even further, Israel forewarns civilians in the area of their bombing missions). I for one can’t generate much compassion for the plight of Lebanese men and women caught in the cross-fire.
