Three rockets landed in the region of Hadera on Friday night marking the southernmost point Hizbullah has fired so far in the conflict, some 90 km south of the Lebanese border. No injuries or damage were reported.

Tel Aviv next? I hope not.

1. Do you think they'd honor a ceasefire?
I mean, if there were some international agreement to have a ceasefire at a certain time the following day or something, do you think they would honor that? Do you think a ceasefire isn't in Israel's interests at this point, if Hezbollah would honor it?

3. During the 48 hr ceasefire, Hezbollah fired 4 rockets, and the IDF...

4. Israel will do what is in its best interest...
not what the rest of the world thinks is in its best interest. A cease fire with a terrorist organization...

7. I'm asking you though
I'm not asking the rest of the world, and i'm not asking Israel.

1) Do you think Hezbollah would agree/honor to a ceasefire?
2) Regardless of the first answer, if they hypothetically would, is it in Israel's interests to accept it?

I'm assuming from your response you think
1) No
2) No

Do you think it's possible for Israel to defeat Hezbollah and obtain peace through their current course of action? How?

9. ok
1. No.
2. No.

I think it is possible to defeat Hezbollah and obtain security. Peace is something I do not know about. Too many of Israels neighbors desire it not to exist. Lasting peace with Egypt was won through the efforts of remarkable individuals. I do not see those individuals stepping forward from Iran or Syria, or the Palestinians. The puzzle of peace is for greater minds than mine to solve.

8. I really think that Israel is perplexed: "What do we have to do to...
get Hezbollah to fire their missiles at Tev Aviv? We kill their children, we level their cities and they STILL won't launch the damn things!"
