israel will ceasefire for 48 hrs but this cease is excluding areas from which rockets were launched this means that all through the past raids israel was completely aware they were killing innocent civilian lives

I think you need to learn to read.
Quote from CNN:
"Spokesman Adam Ereli said the Israelis reserve the right to take action against targets preparing attacks against it during the 48-hour period..."
This does not say they will still attack known or suspected launching sites, just sites that are still launching missiles against them.
Another Quote:
"The building itself was not targeted," Israeli government spokeswoman Miri Eisen told CNN. "The building itself was next to the rocket-launcher sites and we are targeting all of those rocket-launcher sites. This was a mistake and we will have a full investigation."
Where are you getting the confession from? This just confirms my suspicions I posted in answers to questions yesterday that Hezbollah cowards are using civilians as shields. The Lebanese innocent victims are in fact victims of Hezbollah as much as the Israelis.
I pray for peace and my heart morns the innocent dead.

I've been watching the news for a while today and no, they did not confess it. They acknowledge the killings and they express sorry, but they did not say "we were aiming for the civilians" or anything along those lines. The fact is that they were targeting a house that they thought had Hezbollah fighters in it but was mainly civilians. This (probably) wouldn't have happened if Hezbollah didn't use civilians as human shields. Also, it is not a cease fire. A cease fire is when both sides quit fighting on conditions that are satisfactory to both side. This 48 hour (some people say 24 hour) period will only to be to allow supplies and doctors into the area. After that, the fighting probably (most likely, actually) continue. That is not a true cease fire.

I disagree with Israels actions, and they do admit that they were going to take collateral damage against suspected civilians, but i a country where every third person is a terrorist, how can you target any specific person. I do ont agree with the bomb raids since they killed many innocent civilians, but that wasn´t their objective. What is your source, that stated israel confessed it was killing civilians on purpose? or are you making this up?

So you are mad at Hezbollah for putting rockets in civilian areas? Then they fire some of those rockets at innocent civilian areas in Israel. They do this to maximize chances of their people going to heaven, you know, and sending Jews to hell.

All terrorists in the international are civilians. Israel is permitted to take care of itself adversarial to terrorists merely as any united states of america is permitted to take care of it is human beings. Calling them civilians is merely an excuse. in case you poke a tremendous canines with a stick again and again, the tremendous canines will bite you. And he gained't care if you're a civilian.

What? That question makes no sense. Hezbollah probably lives, stores weapons, and hides behind children in areas where rockets were not launched.

no, it was targeting military and dual use sites in addition to active fire zones. while it will stop targeting the secondary offices and depots, it will continue to destroy missiles which attack it. if anything, the fact that there are 2 different types shows that hezbollah likes to hide its offices and facilities in civilian areas. for shame!

I challenge you to find any warring party that doesn't know it's killing innocent civilians when they bomb a city.
They give it a sweet little term: collateral damage.

According to what you say they didn't confessed to anything, when you say: "that means" that is not a confession, is a conclusion you reached. Please...don't twist words to accommodate to your way of thinking. And they know they are killing innocents, but they haven't confessed to killing them on purpose
