82. How bout Isreali civilians?
the humanitarian crisis is also quite existent in ISRAEL per the UN, but I am sure you knew that.

If israel wanted to carpet bomb lebanon, they could. If they did that, you would be talking of hundred of thousands injured and tens of thousands dead. That woudl be excesive and a crime... funny we did not try Bomber Harris for doing precisely this in WW II to oh Dresden.

Is this exceisive? I don't know, but funny how we are all concerned about one side and not the other, Also you did not adress the fact that as long as Hisbollah hides among saith civilians, THEY ARE VALID TARGETS just as I was... per the Geneva Conventions. Does it suck? Yes, absolutely it does, having gone into shootouts to remove the wounded... yes it definitely sucks. That said, why are you not concerned about the crimes commited by Hisbollah? Firiing military assets from those civilian sections, that is a war crime.

The Israelis returning fire we will have to wait for the dust to settle.
