why is it when Isreal attacks and kills, they defend themselves, and when moslims do that they are terrorists?

It's related to which side you're at.
I actually agree with you.
An Israeli life must be very valuable because 2 Israeli soldiers' lives equal 300 Lebanese deaths.
And I always thought a life is a life...

What's going on is that this "war" has been going on for centuries already. In reality, one cannot tell who is the "terrorist" and who is really just "defending themselves".
Obviously if your countries' people were in danger you'd want to defend yourself and rightly so. However, Israel has oppressed some Muslims for a really long time. The Muslims consider themselves as one group of people, although they're all spread all over the world and in different countries. So who is really the "terrorist"? We don't know.
I believe that because Israel is a powerful nation, with powerful allies (US) no one is willing to call them a terrorist nation. One has to rationalize that there are radical zionists in Israel, and some of them may be leaders within the government. These could be driving the newest attacks upon Hezbollah in Lebanon.
However, atrocious these acts may seem to us. There is no way one can be OBJECTIVE about the situation. Many are driven by religious beliefs, discrimination, and fear. Therefore, the views you're getting from most people are SUBJECTIVE.

Because moslims are a religous breed, Isreal is a country. No group of people have the right to ban together and get involved ina war or military fighting only a recognized country.

Everyone believes they are right and the other guy is the bad guy. Its just the way it is. No one is going to admit to being wrong after so many decades of fighting.

Why is it when Muslims kill non-combatants without warning, it is a blessed event, while when Israel kills Muslim non-combatants, they are not entitled to all the virgins in paradise? Have they not died in jihad?
