1)Who has the navy, tanks, and jet fighters?
2)Who occupied a large part of whom for 18 years (and still occupies a little land)?
3)Who has nuclear weapons?
4)Who is being bankrolled by the only superpower in the world?
5)Why does it have about 15,000 Lebanese people in jail (from the last time they were even deeper in Lebanon) yet they faint over two soldiers?
Yes, I know. Rocket attacks into Israel. Where are those attacks going? Into the places where Israel still occupies Lebanese land.

Absolutely correct.
Someone pleaseee tell me how killing hundreds of people and displacing three million Lebanese people justifies the kidnapping of two Israeli soldiers? What were those two Israeli soldiers doing in Lebanon anyway?
To the first person, Israel has nearly demolished Lebanon. Civilian areas (such as airports, roads, and hospitals) have been targerted. All the transportation have been destroyed. The majority of rockets have hit civilian areas. The majority of people killed in Lebanon have been CIVILIANS, not soldiers or Hezbollah officials. So please, rethink what you write.
The Lebanese prime minister has cried for the fighting to stop. Has Israel done that? It looks like Israel wants to keep the war going...after all they are the ones who started it.

She is in Syria-controlled Lebanon because that is where Syria-sponsored Hezbollah is located.
1. Israel
2. Israel, who *left* Lebanon, all of Lebanon, in 2000. What possible reason would Hezbollah have for attacking Israel.
3. Israel, and have you noticed that the Arab fascist dictatorships haven't invaded Israel since she went nuclear?
4. Israel, and BTW, the EU and UN have "bankrolled" the Arab terrorists for decades.
5. She doesn't.
Haifa is part of Lebanon? That's news to me.
If you pick a fight with someone bigger than you, and they kick your ***, you have no right to cry uncle.

Very good question. And the first answerer's answer is pretty funny as he wrote "that is where Hezbollah is hiding" so Hezbollah is hiding ... in its own country?! Since when is it a crime? I am neither pro-Israel or pro-Arab but people in some countries, including the US, only see one side of the story, the side they are "taught" to see or hear.
It is much deeper than it looks ...

because of the fact - like many different western democracies - israel believes in freedom of religion... there are rules and regulations on the preaching, harrassment and purpose of jews for conversion nevertheless... and to be truthful .. any christian that is going out onto any israeli highway together with his bible and starts speaking approximately jesus is taking his life in his very own arms any way jews and distinctly israelis dont take kindly in any respect to conversion methods of their very own back backyard.. human beings in israel are unfastened to have faith what they decide on yet israel continues to be a rustic in step with judaism and ive seen israelis get greater advantageous than a sprint indignant whilst confronted with conversion methods :)

Because Hezbollahh is in Lebanon sending the rockets across into Israel. Who would sit by and let their country have rockets fall on them. I doubt if they send an invitation to Hezbolla they would come into Israel.

Because that's where Hezbollah is hiding.
Where are those attacks going? Into Israeli villiages and town and cities. Including Haifa which is nowhere near Lebanese soil.
Or are you seriously trying to argue that terrorist attack on civilian populations are justified becuase the terrorists are mad at Israel.

Israel is an aggressive country that is terrorizing the Palestinians and its neighbors. They are anything but the victims.

Anyone dumb enough to kidnap Israel's soldiers is asking for trouble. Everyone knows they always retaliate. I think the terrorist were just trying to instigate war between Israel and their neighbors.

Because they are hypocrites. They said they are victims but they dont see that kill 1000 people, because they kidnapped only 2 soldiers.
500 civil and innocents lives per each israeli soldier. Unfair, huh?
