61. Israels actions seem like they want to escalate the conflict
not stop it.

In Lebanon, we have a new democracy that doesn't have the power to reign in the armed wing of Hezbollah (which is funded and supported by much larger powers) without risking a civil war in which it is a real possibility that Hezbollah will be the victors. So what does Israel do in response to Hezbollah's actions? Attack the entirety of Lebanon for the actions of an uncontrollable faction in the south. This does not make any god damned sense.
