Yeah, looks like an act of selfdefense to me!
Same with the oilspill, major pollution of the med. sea is of course one of the oldest selfdefense tricks in the book!
(the book of fascism that is)
Shame on Israel and the United States.

WHY..MUST ALL THESE PEOPLE DIE!!!
STOP THE WAR!!! NOW
Good. Now they know what happens when you harbor terrorists.
good? can any war be good? can killing inocent people be good? i just hope you believe in god because (by saying this is good) you must live with knowledge that you'll burn in hell.
Calamity, grow up!
Remember, peace kills EVERY time! Chamberlin had peace with Hitler, but that didn't stop tens of thousands of Czechs from being killed. German and Russia had peace in 1939; hundreds of thousands of Pols, Lithuanians, Estonians, Fins and Romanians paid with their lives for that one. Remember the effective peace agreements in the Balkans? More dead.
Each one of these "peace" agreements were followed by a decisive war, wadged not by the agressor but by the oppressed and others outraged by the atrocities.
And as far as innocents, far less would be killed if missles were not launched from civilian residences, schools and hospitals.
You know this...THINK!
You're outrage over this bombing of Hezbollah capital is amazing. Take a look at pictures of Berlin in 1944, were the Allies over reacting? Why do you ignore the fact that a thousand Iraqis died last month at the hands of their fellow arabs. Innocents murdered in cold blood are ok, if Israel bombs Hezbollah's command center, its a war crime. Think about your own idiocy for a moment.

Peace does kill sometimes. Peace treaties in the US with native americans were broken by the goverment time and time again and each time the natives died. We stole all their land and way of life and left them in despair
Alle Araber sollen niedergemacht werden. Sofort. Keine Uberlebenden!!!!!
It isn't pretty, but what did you think would happen when you launched an aggressive war against a stronger country
