1. I'm beginning to see a pattern here.
Israel WASN'T provoked by Hezbollah, it should have sat back and taken it on the chin, WHATEVER Syria does isn't a provocaion, but ANYTHING Israel does is a provocation. If Israel fires first, it's Israeli aggression. If Syria fires first, it's Israeli provocation, if Hezbollah fires first it isn't provocation, and any response is Israeli aggression.

:crazy:

4. Maybe the pattern isn't as clear as you think
The kidnappings were a provocation, the attempted rescue by the IDF was a cluster fuck, and cost the lives of more soldiers then were kidnapped, not a smart deal.

But even after that it could have been settled some other way then to bomb Beirut, and "suspected" Hezbollah strongholds, like the airport and the seaport, or as much of south Beirut as possible, and even the NORTHERN city of Tyre

6. I hope Syria doesn't fall for the bait.
I think that'd throw a real wrench in Bush's plan.
