Why does the world express outrage when Israel hits back? Aren't accidental civilian casualties to be expected when Hezbollah shoots rockets from neighborhoods? Why aren't critics of Israel upset at Hezbollah?

I agree. It's amazing that Israelis can be killed and the world doesn't move a muscle. But when Israel tries to defend itself, everyone blames Israel for everything. What a racist world.

I'm upset at Hezbollah, cause they're doing damage too. But I'm also upset with Israel. Killing civilians isn't going to make hizbollah go away. If they carry on and kill every single member of hizbollah (which they won't, but just suppose) then think of how many civilians will have been killed. This will make a lot of people extremely angry with Israel, and cause them to join an extremist organisation - like Hezbollah.
Besides, even supposing that every death from Israel bombing houses WAS justified by there being Hezbollah in the area, does this excuse them bombing two red cross ambulances (using the red cross on the roof to aim the missiles) and a UN base? These are international organisations, and don't have anything to do with Hizbollah, and certainly weren't sheltering fighters.
When the IRA bombed British cities, did the RAF level Dublin?Both sides are just as much terrorists as the other, it's just Israel are "freedom fighters" in the eyes of the US.

Yes, I was.
But don't you find it astonishing that Israeli Intelligence can identify that there was a terrorist staying in a block of flats, but somehow fail to notice the 80 plus women and children sheltering there?
They say they're sorry, that it was a mistake, but these mistakes keep happening.
At some point you've only got two choices left:
[1] Incompetence
[2] Callous indifference (Read: Evil)

What you have a picture of is a civilian anti aircraft defence unit, look at your "combatants", they are almost all fat old geezers pushing fifty with a few of their grand children. And that "cannon" looks like something left over from WW2 Turkish army
Shame on you for this

Yeah,...that concept is known as "Guerrilla Warfare". It's highly effective, and it's the reason Israel is going to lose in their current military fiasco. As has been said, "A thing of beauty is a joy, forever". And dead Jews are "Beautiful"!

Yes, it's true. Why don't you inform the media? They don't seem to tell the whole truth.
