Why did the US give Israel the green light to destroy Lebanon?

Question

Ethan M - keep reading them, son, keep reading them, you'll get it. I'm making progress with you... good job. Soon you'll be able to tell that those things called water pipes used for smoking tobacco, really are just for people who smoke weed. You'll wake up to the harsh real world soon. Buy any Chomsky book, I dare you to.

nostateomind - Bush lovers like you forget that he was a cheerleader and now you are his cheerleader. See you at the prom! Dummy.

Answer 1

There is a LOT of money to be made from war.
Ask Halliburton.

Answer 2

Do you think it would matter if the U.S. gave a Red-light instead? Most likely not, "Peace in the Middle-East" is for dreamers...won't happen until one-side finally holds up the white-flag of surrender (never?). I have friends from both Lebanon and Israel... and they know this is not about Israel vs. Lebanon....this is Israel vs. Hezbollah, and unfortunately many innocent Lebanese people have died. Also keep in mind that Hezbollah was created for one sole purpose: to kill Israelis.

On your addendum to read Chomsky: He is 100% against anything to U.S. and Israel actions. In May, 2006 he visited Hezbollah and Lebanon headquarters.....he describes himself as "Libertarian-Socialist"...and for the past 30 years has gone on a personal crusade against capitalism and democracy....don't put too much faith into his political beliefs (his work in Linguistics however, is bar none)

Answer 3

you're saying the Jews attacked Syria, Jordan, Lebanon and Egypt in the 6 day conflict. yet what you probably did not say is that on might 15, Israel's Independence Day, Egyptian troops began entering into the Sinai and massing close to the Israeli border. via might 18, Syrian troops have been arranged for conflict alongside the Golan Heights. The Jews moved rapidly and gained the conflict, so take that and suck on it. it isn't the Palestinians land, they arrive from Jordan enable them to pass lower back to Jordan the place they got here from. whilst the Arabs talk of an historic "Palestinian people," it fairly is a lie and that they comprehend it! The Land of Israel grew to become into just about uninhabited whilst the Jews began their return ["Zionist pass"] in the late 1800s. just about all of Arabs got here to Israel AFTER those Zionists pioneers began to rebuild the land and thereby arising the financial possibilities and scientific availabilities which attracted Arabs from the two surrounding territories and lots-away Arab lands! Terrorism, slaughter, rape and carnage via the Arabs against the Jews began as quickly as a results of fact the Jews began to resettle the barren land and quite often uninhabited lands, endured by the British mandatory era after international conflict I, endured lower back after the Jews declared a Jewish Palestinian domicile [Israel] in 1948 and continues to be persevering with on the instant.

Answer 4

Hmm... rockets being shot from Lebanon...what to do?

At least Israel is targeting Hezbollah installations, which are sometimes placed in civilian areas, so that Hezbollah can assist civilian Lebanese with martyrdom.

US didn't "give the green light". Hezbollah did.

Answer 5

The US didn't. The US supports Israeli activity against Hizbollah, which happens to be in Lebanon. Neither Israel nor the US is happy about the destruction rained upon Lebanon toward accomplishing this goal.

Answer 6

They gave them the Green Light to destroy Hezbollah, not Lebanon. But Isreal pretty much is destroying Lebanon

Answer 7

The very question demonstrates the general ignorance of the average prom queen wannabe...like you.
Israel doesn't need anyone to give 'em a "green light" of any sort.

Secondly, what they're doing now (to the hezbollah....not Lebanon), is saving us the trouble of needing to do it later.

Have a nice prom!

Answer 8

Whoa, big guy! You mean the United Nations!!!

The U.N. Security Council RULED in a Unanimous ULTIMATUM that Israel is NOT to be sanctioned, for protecting it's citizens, AND, even Saudi Arabia condemned Hezbollah for it's actions agaiinst MUSLIMS and Jews in the target zones!

Look up the UN Security Council member nations! CHINA and RUSSIA ruled with the UN!!!

Answer 9

Are you ever going to ask an intelligent honest question? No most likely not. First all you little liberals cried because Bush was "sticking his nose in Iraq" Now you complain because he doesn't do it in Lebanon? Is it because you don't want your little terrorist buddies to get hurt. Israel is just tired of unprovoked attacks and now they are going to wipe out Hezbollah once and for all. GET OVER IT.

Answer 10

Hezbollah gave Israel the green light.

Answer 11

Go go go!

Because the lebanese support hezbolla.

Hezbolla attacks Israel..

Cause and effect.

Edit: While Hezbolla fires inaccurate rockets killing civilians and Israel uses high-precision weapons to minimize damage.

They just have a LOT more machinery, which is why they do a lot more damage.

GREEN LIGHT!
