MSNBC Crawl: Hizbollah Launches 190 Missiles at Israel. 4 Israelis killed.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

I'm lousy at math but...




Peace Now!

[xultar]

1. Apparently this war is working! Great JOB Israel!

[cigsandcoffee]

2. You make a good point.

Israel should have definitely waited for Hezbollah missiles to become more accurate before moving to take them out.

That would have been more fair...


(rolling my fucking eyes over the top of my head)

[enigma000]

3. What the hell? Did the Israelis buy into the whole "air power" fraud

Why are they still bombing? ? ? ? ?

If you are going to end this, it takes troops on the ground ! ! ! !

Be a man and finish this - ground troops to ground troops.

[cigsandcoffee]

5. Like America's effort in Bosnia?

I mean, really, are you kidding?

[enigma000]

13. OK, OK - exception to the rule. That and Kosovo

But normally, air power can't win a war. Sure, B2s were blasting Taliban hideouts in 2001, but the Northern Alliance pressed the advance. Aircraft than can fly all the way around the world - simply incredible - but no holding power

Berlin was nothing but rubble but the Soviets lost more troops taking the capital of the third Reich than the US during the entire war (I think).

Hiroshima? Nagasaki? that was us making an example of the Japanese for being obtuse

Bomb Lebanon all you want. You can't stop them. Face to face is how you will end this.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

7. Like We Did In Serbia

eom

[Renew Deal]

8. There are ground troops

Supposedly they're going 18 miles into Lebanon. Are you satisfied?

[malaise]

4. Meanwhile one bomb took out 57

in Lebanon earlier today, aother took out 28 and a third took out 17.

[Renew Deal]

6. So are people more angry at Israel than Hizbollah

becaue Israel has a much more efficiant killing machine?

[AlamoDemoc]

10. SAD, very SAD...28 farm workers, 57 shelter seekers, and 17 evacuees

all dead civilians.

[baldguy]

9. Israel drop 4 bombs on Lebanon, 190 Lebanese killed

0 Hizbollah soldiers.

[malaise]

11. And that is what is driving the

anger.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

14. If You Really Believe Israel Hasn't Killed One Hezbollah Soldier

you must also believe they lost all six wars they had with the Arabs.

If they were that feckless they would have been consigned to the asheap of history fifty eight years ago.

[baldguy]

18. Just over 900 Lebanese people have been killed.

Of those, about 40 have been Hizbollah.

Both sides are targeting civilians, Israel is just so much better at it.

[KoKo]

12. I dunno? They have very bad aim? What can one say but: Disproportionate?

:shrug:

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

16. One has to question the quality of hardware.

I was watching a week ago and they were talking about a Hizbollah rocket that his a hospital and reported the damage as "Shattered the window and bent the window framing." Commercial Window framing is aluminum ad will bend if you look at it sideways.

[slaveplanet]

15. and 3 of the 4 killed were

Arabs living in Israel, according to CBS

[leftofthedial]

17. The Israelis apparently need to kill more Lebanese civilians

[pinto]

19. Locked.
