23. I agree, I think it's cowardly to bomb them from 10000 feet and
kill 100 civilians to get one bad guy. Shouldn't the military go in on the ground and face their enemy in a fair fight, after all that's what they are paid for. Israel is doing exactly what the overwhelming majority on DU accuse the US of doing in Iraq, but since it's Israel people seem to be able to justify it. The west accuses Hizbollah of indiscriminately firing missiles into Israel and killing civilians yet it's just fine for Israel to do it since they have "smart bombs" that only kill the people that deserve it. If you have WWII technology and kill civilians it's bad but if you have "smart bombs" and kill 10 times as many it's justified.
