Are you sided with Israel or Lebanon?

Answer 1

Isaiah 43
Israel obviously

Answer 2

The situation in the region is grave. But, let me remind you how this current situation began:

BUT FOR Hezbollah going on Israeli soil, killing 8 and kidnapping 2 soldiers, Israel would not be in Lebanon, waging war to destroy Hezbollah and its stronghold. Israel left Lebanon 6 years ago, and during this time Lebanon allowed Hezbollah (with the support of Syria and Iran) to build large munition with rockets pointing to Israel. That cannot be allowed, period.

Lebanon has been occupied and controlled by Syria for decades. The beautiful Lebanon, the French Riviera of the Middle East was destroyed in the Lebanese civil war in the 60's and 70's. The Christian minority that ruled Lebanon and brought it to its splendor has been overtaken by the vilolent Islamic extremists.

Hezbollah is accepted in parts of Lebanon because the population truly has absolutely no say and no choice in the matter. If you oppose Hezbollah, you die. The Lebanese Prime Minister Harriri was assassinated for opposing the Syrian occupation. The current Lebanese government is helpless.

Israel wants peace and recognition of its existence. The Muslim extremists, including Syria and Iran regimes want Israel wiped off the face of the earth, and have repeatedly said so. Israel has absolutely no interest in claiming Lebanon, or any other Arab country.

The Muslim world has missed every opportunity to make peace with Israel. When a Muslim country and brave leader did make peace with Israel (the late Egyptian President Anwar al-Sadat), he was assassinated by Iranian-backed group.

It's time for Muslims to take accountability for their religion and culture. Stop spinning, and address the fact that the Muslim culture is one of the most oppressive and violent cultures, against its own people, and certainly against other cultures.

For those who believe that the extremist element in Islam is small, the numbers are staggering. There are 1.2 billion Muslims in this world. Lets take a very liberal view that only a very small percentage of Muslims are exterme, while the rest of the Muslim world is very peaceful. So if only 10% of Muslims have extreme point of views, and may be a threat, and must be dealt with, meaning dealing with 120 million Muslims! How about 1%? Then you must deal with 12 million Muslims. How about 1/10 of a percent? Then you must deal with 1.2 million Muslims. The numbers are staggering! How do you propose dealing with even the "very low" figures of 1.2 million Muslim extremists?

Israel must be given the opportunity to continue the work to destroy the terrorist group Hezbollah up to its leader. It would be to the benefit of Lebanon, Israel, the Middle East, and the World to rid of Hezbollah, Hamas, the Syrian and Iranian regime. It must be done to finally have a chance for peace in the region.

Answer 3

Israel, for all the good reasons listed above,

If you want to see a reason why Europe is in trouble just watch the sky news video clip vie the link above (the 30th answer or last on the first page is where the link is). That guy is joke and has no clue how little he has in common with the violent Muslim's he supports. But I do have to admit he crushed that fumbling news anchor like a bug.

Answer 4

israel isn't fighting lebanon... they're fighting Hizbollah

israel is trying to weaken hizbollah by destroying the infrastructure of Lebanon.

and Israel knows that the US will pick up the tab to reconstruct Lebanon 'cause the US govt lets Israel do whatever and will blindly support them.

Answer 5

This is a very tough choice. I wholeheartedly support Israel for wanting to defend itself against terrorists and everyone has to admit that Lebanon hasn't done enough to reign in Hezbollah. But at the same time, I think that the Israeli offensive has gone overboard and is plummetting quickly out of everybody's control. This violence will only breed more terrrorists. I guess it's a no-win situation...

Answer 6

Lebanon

Answer 7

Israel,I feel bad for some of the Innocent people on Lebanon,but they knew what could happen by turning a blind eye to having a terrorist group set up camp in their country.

Answer 8

Lebanon should never have provoqued Israel but what Israel is doing is just cruel. They shouldnt be killing innocent people for no reason.

I side with Lebanon

Answer 9

Israel all the way Lebanon shouldn't have effed with Israel.

Answer 10

Neither.
Israel and Lebanon should discuss how to make peace together... not war. But it seems Israel already buyed USA to help she, isn´t it?

Answer 11

Israel who is doing what the UN has not by disbanding hezbollah terrorists in lebanon
