How does the war on Lebanon fit with the other wars the U.S. and Israel are carrying out in the Middle East?

Question

It seems the main target is the Iranian regime, which they want to get rid of, in one way or another.

Answer 1

they will eventually have to attack Iran and Syria.
the Syrian prime minister stated that if Israel attacks on any Syrian soil the answer will be immediate and they are ready for a regional war. that's exactly what he said. although the Israeli military is a lot stronger than the Syrians but like i said in your other question.
those people would rather die standing on their feet than live on their knees. and bow down to an occupier no matter how stronger it may be.

Answer 2

Ok, first thing you're talking about three different wars in one question. The war in Afghanistan is being fought to remove the Taliban and Al Qaedi permenantly as they were the party responsible for 9/11. I fully support the Afghanistan war.

The war in Iraq was fought to find WMD's. When they couldn't find any it was then fought for Iraqi freedom. When it turned out the Iraqi's really don't want us there it began to fall under the all encompassing "War on Terrorism". The Iraq war is bullshit and I fully support a withdrawl.

Israel's Offensive against Lebanon is fully justified. Hezbollah attacked first, Israel has not only a right but also a responsibility to make sure Hezbollah loses it's base of power.

Iran is a bad country, however it is not my belief that they are actively seeking nuclear armement. They're not a good country though and it wouldn't be a pleasent place to live for any American.

Answer 3

This is a war for the last major deposit of oil in the world, the United States is a business country(ran by Cheney) that realise that the most valuable commidty in the United States is nearly dry and they need more. This is why the US hasn't reacted to the Sudan Crisis in Africa

Answer 4

If the main target was Iran, that's who they be killing, instead of a bunch of women and kids in Lebanon and Palestine. The goal is genocide.

Answer 5

well
iran at least didnt occupy other country
it didnt destroy whole cities in iraq
didnt kill like a 1000 ppl in lebanon in 26 days
didnt destroy lebanese bridges and roads
didnt kill tens of thousands of palestinians
if u think killing and destroying is good
then iran is the worst country ever
and israel and the usa are the best ones

Answer 7

Let Isreal take care of Iran for the US

Answer 8

They are wars to exterminate violent religious fanatics that have declared Jihad on the west.

Answer 9

could be, time will tell. iran could be less confrontational about the holocaust. everyone knows Jews and jewery are whacked, at best, and the world would be better without Jews and jewery.

Answer 10

Then they have a very cowardly way of 'fighting' Iran.
