I keep hearing the strangest arguments regarding the war in Lebanon. Here's how I see it - tell me what is wrong here?

Hezbollah were killing people every chance they got.
Hezbollah were amassing missiles and weapons.
Lebanon never stopped or hindered them
Israel had two choices:
Endure the occasional missile and murder without retaliation.
War.

NOTE: So far, the ONLY people who "refuted" this argument have hidden their email accounts so no further debate can happen.

Obviously you are all too young and without a clue of historical perception. It ain't that simple. If you want to look for real blame then look back to the formation of the state of Israel when land was taken from the Palestinians and given to the now Israelis. Look to the USA and to the western powers who approved of the Balfour declaration. Lebanon is a very small country torn by a ruthless civil war with no army or infrastructure to be able to contain the Palestinians in the south. Israel on the other hand is a powerful military machine supported by the west. Unfortunately nothing is going to come of this except more killings and animosity. This is a very old story. It's even in the bible. The Jews and the Philistines(Palestinians). The Jews trying to take Palestine(the promised land) from its owners. Please people read some history and not propaganda.

Its not true. Hezbollah were retaliating for the INNOCENT people kidnapped by Israeli army(not soldiers) Because of the actions perpetrated by Israel lebanon cannot control its government. The people are behind the power that protects its own. Hezbollah does a lot of good for their community and are not terrorsit. terrorist is label given to them by forces that want to see them gone. Who has the right to label one a terrorist? Americans, Isrealis, Lebanese?There is no standard for a terrorist and its unfair that only nations like America, Israel and India can label other forces as terrorist. Many would say the exact the same about American and Israel. Because you are only given one perspective dont assume it is truth.

Hezbollah was defending its people against Israel. Israel should be considered a terrorist state for all the war crimes they are guilty of. Who are the ones bombing hospitals, unarmed villages, and anything else they can? Read news articles from around the world and not what the government is force feeding you.

Its a genuine testomony of creationist denial that they actually clarify how evolution works, of their very own argument opposing evolution. Evolution modifies latest physique factors....precisely! that's superb. that's how evolution works as an occasion birds, bats and pterosaurs all flew, all of them have/had wings and that they are all tetrapods. Their wings are changed arms. that's particularly obvious in bats you will see the arms have been elongated to help a wing membrane. So is a land based or arboreal (tree residing) organism evolving right into a flying organism a case of macro-evolution? by using creationists very own definition, no that could nonetheless be micro-evolution and as a result attainable. Your windpipe is stepped forward from what have been initially gill arches. Your inner ear bones have been as quickly as area of your jaw (reptiles have an further hinge of their jaw which in mammals has grew to become the three small bones of the ear), the mouth factors and intercourse organs of maximum bugs are rather changed limbs. So this will improve the question of what the **** creationists mean by using "macro-evolution"?

The way I see it, Israel is doing our dirty work. Hezbollah is the epitome of terrorism and it was only a matter of time before we would have to "deal with them". plus why are we in their business anyway? why cant we just let the rest of the world handle their own conflicts. we are still in Iraq and Afghanistan and we are trying to stick our noses in it like the world mediator.
don't you think we have enough problems.

this is an irrefutable arguement and i'm glad someone posing a question has this opinion. seems like all the "askers" think israel is in the wrong and those of us who are on the side of israel have to constantly defend our opinions.
