3 weeks in, Hezbollah surprises with its might is destroying Israel.
Hezbollah rockets kill 13 Israelis today, 4 of them soldiers.
Israel can only kill women and children.
Hezbollah has been firing rockets as far as the West Bank, knocking out Israeli tanks and damaging 2 warships — and had plenty of time to booby-trap all of southern Lebanon. It is hardly a typical guerrilla group, equipped only with bravado and AK-47 assault rifles.
Three weeks into its defense war against Israeli aggression, Hezbollah has retained its presence in southern Lebanon, and its ability to keep firing rockets has been a source of surprise and dismay to Israeli commanders, officials and the public.
In addition, Hezbollah's use of relatively advanced weapons and the variety of its armaments have surprised U.S. military experts, according to current and former officials involved in Middle East policy.

That depends. Can Stalinist-Hezbollah win the war?
You must have met one guy in Israel who was a Nazi. Cool. I met a Hezbollah who was a Stalinist. Small world, isn't it?
Say... if the Hezbollah might is doing so well, why are the Israeli's still in Lebanon? Ground troops are nothing compared to those jets with their armaments? Why can't Hezbollah clean the soldiers out of there? What's wrong, are those children being used as human shields getting in the way? Or is it because Hezbollah's miltary hardware, tucked away in residential neighborhoods to surround it with Lebanese, can't get a clear shot?
Come on now - with "might" they should have finished destroying Israel by now. What's the holdup? Let's get MOVING, guys!

There are no Nazis in Israel. Regardless, Israel is doing a fine job of defending itself and decimating Hezbollah. That's why the democratic government of Lebanon has agreed to accept weapons from United States. They're preparing for the annihilation of Hezbollah and having to secure the southern border themselves.
Nobody's denying that Hezbollah has sophisticated weapons from Iran and Syria. But so what...war is messy...and Hezbollah shouldn't have started something if they were truly concerned about the lives of "women and children."

I like your question as it says more than you wanted to.
You ask if Israel can defend itself against Hezbollahs "defense war"
You do not defend yourself by firing rockets into Israel. you defend yourself by taking out the people who are trying to kill you. (the people trying to kill Hezbollah are in southern Lebabon, not Israel)
Hezbollah started this by kidnapping soldiers and increasing rocket attacks. Now I am not saying Israel are totally right, but you are completely wrong.
Oh and Israel can defend itself, they are armies, navy and an air force. I think they can handle people "..equipped only with bravado and AK-47 assault rifles."
The more bloody this conflict gets, the more i back Israel, because Israel will do anything to win, irrespective of the death count.

I in simple terms think of what Spain would do if Portugal would fireplace rockets on Spanish floor often with the aid of the years... Leaving out the project of the religion, as a results of fact the religion is often used as a lame excuse, as Israel is a non-non secular united states. So how would you think of any sovereign united states would react if being attacked often? wager what, i'd say that none of those eu worldwide places would prepare as a lot persistence as Israel confirmed in the time of years and attempting to barter peace. It´s situation-free to opinion in case you're no longer in Israels shoes, neither do you attempt to place your self in Israels place. If america became into attacked with the aid of its neighbor, they'd start up a conflict at present and the unusual element is that no-one would even thinking it, Dis you ever ask your self, why are Israelis predicted to settle for each thing? Why are they predicted to no longer ***** and placed the different cheek. Do you think of that Israelis need to be taken care of like that? living in everlasting expectation that yet another loopy suicide killer ought to bomb their united states or deliver missiles often?? i comprehend what newspapers write and what's declared on television, yet i think that folk ought to nonetheless be clever sufficient and get the entire photograph. surely every person looks to cry over Islamic terror, that´s why it is so unusual that Europa looks to assist an apprehension regime stated as Hamas and it variety of feels that no-one even cares that Israel is the only democratic and occidental united states interior the middle East and that Israel is the only barrier that exists there. no one else would even decide to do the interest Israel does... yet with a view to be a minimum of independent they accuse Israel as criminal and help a criminal terrorist %. stated as Hamas. I don´t comprehend the international anymore, do you? of direction, and as quickly as back, i'm against any killing of harmless human beings, Palestine or Israeli. and that i think of that the Israeli secret provider ought to infiltrate and kill all Hamas leaders or perhaps those all confident individuals. this would be a great substitute and supply peace to each physique.
