What would America do if Terrorists were to fire 1600 rockets from U.K onto Washington or New York or to Los Angeles and the British government did nothing to stop these terrorists?. What if these terrorists were based in London?..........Once you have answered this question change America to Israel and U.K as the Lebanon............Think, dont listen to what you see on television. Back your President, be patriotic.

How is backing a different country being patriotic?

You know what? Even if 1600 rockets (you forgot to say over how many years) were fired from the UK on US soil, even if "terrorists" were firing them, and even if the UK government had done nothing about it, still I would say, NO, the American poupulation would not approve of OBLITERATING the UK civilian population and infrastructure.
That is, if your facts are right, which they are not.
What do you see on television? Nothing, if you live in the US. Try going to other TV channels, or websites, including US allies website, like British press, or even Israel. You'd be shocked about what you don't see.
The pro-Israeli Americans are still denying that Israel bombed Red Cross ambulances when Israel is already investigating that incident.
You are the misinformed, and ultimately, the assassin.
In this county, patriotism does not require backing one's president. Where did you come up with that? And it most certainly does not require backing another country's savagery, notwithstanding it being a so called ally, israel.

Let's see Lebanon has like no military might. Israel's attacks have been on largely civilians and Hezbollah is still intact. They are attacking the most liberal and progressive country in the Middle East, which for them is just creating another potential enemy for Israel. Seriously, the population had Islamics and Christians (like 30%) in coexisting. Also, I don't like how you say "Be patriotic support you President." This, is America we are allowed to have different views and this is so we can keep a country intact...if we just allow the President to do whatever he likes, how are we gonna ever survive and how are principles the country is founded on gonna survive? Criticizing you leader is patriotic just as well as always standing behind him.
If I we're Lebanon I would rebound start some military build up and take some preventive actions against Israel in the future.

United States aid to Israel is $3 billion per year. Let's end that now. Also, Israel has the capability (just as America does) to pinpoint where the terrorists are hiding. Yes, mistakes are made, but I don't see Americans bombing suburban communities in Iraq and then going in. No, they send U.S. soldiers in -- and at great cost. Israel does not like anyone in the Arab community whether they are Muslim or Christian, and Lebanon has a very significant Christian population. It's ethnic cleansing on the part of the Israeli government pure and simple. Oh, and nice how Israel tries to say, "Oh, look! Those missiles came from Iran!" without any proof.

Yeah but the problem is NOT about America. We, Americans have POWER! And just for your info, i support our president 100 % but there's just some stuff I don't like. For example, his agenda in SOUTH ASIA and SOME PARTS of Middle East.
And I AM THINKING. How we can back up a totally chaotic country. A country that breaks INTERNATIONAL laws! Israelis are put into an ARAB land, the least they can do is try to cause the LEAST mayhem!
and before you say that it's their land, then that means that America should totally belong to native americans and EVERYONE ELSE should get kicked out. Iran should ONLY belong to Parsis. This ain't write.
And no more physcological stuff to make us think that we ain't loyal!
its time ISRAEL stood up at its own feet.
