The Lebanese government is doing nothing to stop these terrorists from firing rockets into Israel. These terrorists fire the rockets from residential neighborhoods and hide in people's houses. I don't know what the answer is. Should Israel just sit there idly and keep getting hit by these rockets?

The thing that is so sick about this whole thing is that Hezbollah likes it when Lebanese women and children get killed. It's makes great propaganda for them. It makes Israel look like the bad guy. I think the blood is on Hezbollah's hands. They know that Lebanese civilians will get killed if they fire rockets into Israel from civilian neighborhoods.

It's pretty obvious that the Lebanese government is powerless...once supported by GW Bush. Condi to the rescue???
I don't think so.
Israel is doing what they're doing with US supplied weapons. This further diminishes US credibility in the Arab (Muslim) world.
So, what to do?
Well, the UN is ineffective, and their observers have been killed by Israel.
The pay back for them will be huge, indeed. They really do look like the "bad guys" to many.
Do you think that they over reacted to the taking of two soldiers and used this as an excuse to destroy the infrastructure of a struggling democracy?
Don't get me wrong, lots of blood is on both parties' hands.
So, my question....how would YOU stop this insanity when the 48 hours are up?
Sad to say, many more will die.
Hezzbolah isn't going to run out of rockets anytime soon, and Israel isn't going to run out of tanks or F-16's and drones with serious fire.
Israel has gone very far to create enemies, as has the current US policies.
When will it end?
I really don't know.
Is it when they've killed enough of each other's children, one with bombs and the other with suicide bombers on buses?
Seems that there's just too much innocent blood for me to consider before it's resolved.
I really would like to hear your thoughts.
I've just said mine...and I don't see much good.

Praying for sanity and peace,
