Apparently the world lets Israel do what they please because some of their ancestors perished in the Holocaust. But, the Lebanese have nothing to do with Hitler!
If you recall history, Israel is a "colonial settler state" put into place by the British Empire. Colonization started in the late 1800s. Its purpose was to be a watch-dog for British interests in the Near East. It still functions in that way for the US today. Read about the Balfour Declaration.
From what I understand, without US financing Israel would no longer exist as they have no real economy of their own. This was first pointed out to me by an Israeli American who said he'd like to live there but there were no jobs outside of the military.
Note also that Israel said they would attack Lebanon for at least 2 weeks and the US has allowed them this by refusing to tell Israel to stop.
Why do they continue to get US support? Well, obviously for strategic reasons but they get by with it because the Jewish population in the US is traditionally Democratic and the Republican "religious right" people do not understand that there are Palestinian and Lebanese Christians plus the "religious right" hopes to hasten Armageddon (the end of the world) which they think will start there. The weird thing is that US Christians support Jews attacking Palestinian and Lebanese Christians (and Muslims).
I think that the US wants control of the port cities in Lebanon to load oil into their tankers. Also, possibly as a base to attack Syria and Iran. The US must not only secure oil wells, but also the pipelines or trucking routes and the ports. Oil must to transported.
However, the answer could be simply that since the Republicans are predicted to lose elections in November that they want to gain a few votes from Jewish Americans.
The US administration has proved with Hurricane Katrina (and in other ways as well) that they don't care about the US people. So, should it come as a surprise that they don't care about the Lebanese people?

They are not innocent if there is the slightest chance they belong to the Hezbollah so anyone in the way gets the blast. Hezbollah the Jews say hide behind the citizens of Lebanon and this is why they bomb parts of the cities but who would be so stupid to hang around when the Israeli airforce is bombing? It is just an excuse to show the Hezbollah that the Jews are not going to stand by and do nothing when Hezbollah sends missiles into Israeli territories. This sort of thinking does not work and only makes contractors rich when they have to rebuild the houses etc. that are blown up.

Israel did not attack innocent people in Lebanon. The Hezbollah build it's bases in the middle of towns knowing very well that Israel will attack their bases and some innocent people will be killed as result of this. If the Lebanese people would not allow the Hezbollah to build bases in the middle of civilians towns, innocent people would not get killed.
Why are Lebanese people allowing the Hezbollah to kill innocent people in Israel?

First off you show very little intelligence by making that claim. Any reasonable person knows that Israel does not target innocent civilians nor does the US, Britain, France, Russia, China, or any other civilized country. The reason casualties have been so high is because terrorist organizations like Hezbollah hide among civilians with the intent to use them as fodder. It is pure ignorance on your part to claim Israel or any other country intentionally causes these deaths. Much similiar to the claim the US is killing innocent Iraqis.

All is about counter-terrorism.
The basic strategy in terrorism is that few terrorist hide among many innocent people. Israel got the idea killing everyone and let God sort them out ...
Well, no one likes to be called a terrorist. For those who are afraid from terrorists, here's a good question: what is the definition of terrorism? When you think of killing third party (-> innocent) bystanders in a mission to achieve your goals, how would you describe a military force that shoots to everything that moves (e.g. UN inspectors, humanitary sevices) ?
For those thinking terrorists can be only arabic people, please read about e.g. Irgon or Haganah...
Look at both sides of the coin before making statements, please.
Hm?

Because Hezbollah launched their rockets from that location.
Israel dropped leaflets in that area several days before, but I guess Hezbollah prevented the people from leaving the area.
Tell Hezbollah to stop putting rocket launchers where kids are hanging out!

Israel's attack on innocent people is inevitable. Of course, in a war there are always innocent victims. They must bomb first Lebanon to conquer it easily because they don't want to waste too much Israeli lives. So please don't blame them.
