regarding the issue of Hizbollah and other militant groups hiding in the civilian populace.
You are right and you are wrong.
Right in that it is cowardly.

Wrong in that no matter how cowardly, we simply cannot bomb a UN outpost, civilian apartment building, water treatment plant, etc. etc., and still maintain any moral highground, or expect to accomplish any long term solution. It makes us terrorists. It does. Ask what else can we do all you want, but it doesn't change the fact that the view from under our(or Israel's) bombs is just as terrible, unjust, immoral and completely tragic as 9-11, Oklahoma city, Beirut, U.S.S. Cole, Haifa, or any other "terrorist" bombings. As long as we continue in this "Bush Doctrine" philosophy, we will continue to create enemies with legitimate hatred for us faster than we can kill them.

It is far more cowardly to bomb a civilian populace with overwhelming force than it is to hide in one. I doesn't matter if Satan is hiding there.

It will NEVER end the violence. It("The Buuush Doctrine") has been tried time and time again. It NEVER works. Neither peace, non-violent democracy, or "lasting ceacefires" can be achieved with violence. The horror of watching all the slow people in the world trying to figure this out over and over again is sickening.

Let me be clear: As long as bombs are being fired, WHOMEVER is firing them deserves the label of "terrorist" and lifelong imprisonment. There is No justification. Please don't waste your time trying.
