As usual, a misinformed tirade in the form of a question.
Facts:
1. Hezbollah attacked Israel from within the borders of Lebanon. This attack was unprovoked.
2. These attacks are not targetting military targets, they are intended to cause damage to civillians, their homes and their places of work.
3. The IDF has responded with pinpoint attacks against sites that have been launchpoints for the Hezbollah rockets. In some cases the IDF dropped leaflets in the areas _warning_ of the impending attacks, to allow non-combatants an opportunity to leave.

What's the question? I think America (who plays the queen piece in the NATO chess game) just flips a coin when it comes to who they want to support in any given conflict. Where at one time America went for the underdog now we just say, "f-it!" and put all our chips on whomever looks more appealing financially. No, I'm only half right. Half of Israel's debt load is owed to the US because of our inability to say "no" to arm sales overseas. Therefore we're just bailing out our friends because they have lined our pockets so handsomly in the past.
The thing about Syria and Iran is that they have an excess of arms available that they bought from Russia. They ask themselves, "how do we unload all these weapons?" They've got AK's under pillows, RPG's lying under the family pet. So, they open up the telephone book under radical groups and the first name they come upon is Hezbollah. They give them the ring up and a week later Hezbollah has a whole arsenal at their doorstep. What would Syria and/or Iran have to gain from having easy access to Israel? That, my friend, is too numerous to count.

It is always interesting to hear this phrase that modern armies "kill innocent people" when only terrorists purposefully target innocents. The terrorists would have people believe that lobbing rockets onto non-combatants is the same as Israel taking out rocket launchers that have been intentionally placed in children's schools. Dream on.
No modern army targets innocent people. If innocents are killed, it is because amoral and cowardly terrorists are using them as human shields in the vast majority of cases.
Believe me, if any Hezbollah fighter tried to take out an Israeli mortar, it would not be in the middle of a school and nobody would complain about this.
However, you have every right to twist this around however you want to try to: just don't think that any intelligent person would believe it for one second.

No one is denying that America helps Israel.
The American people are willing to say murder is murder. We think you guys in the Middle East are killing each other. Why don't you stop killing each other?
Hezbollah doesn't have to disarm or join a cease fire. Let them keep on fighting. We Americans enjoy a conflict. We want to see who wins.

Do you really believe the US gov wants a stable Middle East? Who would end up controlling all that oil if they left the Middle East alone to sort out its problems? They are already on a downward spiral with their own oil reserves, they desperately need to control other countries to support their profligate use of energy and insurgancy and destabilisation has always been the American way.

have you ever been in this communicate board for any length of time? look on the type of questions and solutions related to no remember if or not the USA is a Christian united states of america. in accordance to the Treaty of Tripoli, which this united states of america signed as a sort of corporation settlement with Muslim pirates on the Barbary coast, the U.S. isn't definitely a Christian united states of america in any respect. specific, the U.S. sends help to Israel, yet that's not any of my doing. If it have been as much as me, we does not help terrorism of ANY sort, everywhere in the worldwide. yet no person in the government is calling my opinion, extra's the pity. OH, and easily so which you already know, i'm a Christian, residing in the U.S. Does that count selection, in any respect??
