124. This might come as a shock to you but
there are no innocents in war. (This includes both Israelis and Hisbollah)

This might also come as a shock to you... but there also are no morals in war since this is by its nature an amoral act.

What is more is that this might truly shock you, but Hisbollah does intend to destroy Israel, and would have done such already if they had the ability to do such... they also would love to kill you... assuming you are an American.

Of course Israel has done things in this case that though not pleasant... war is never pleasant, were provoked by Hisbollah... the time line did not start with that kid.. it did not start with two soldiers either (casus belli, trigger) it started shortly after the Israelis pulled out and Hisbollah started sending missiles down range... One side TRIED to break the cycle... now it will be far harder to sell pulling back... but I am sure you knew that.

And I fear as always that civilians are the ones who truly pay
