Do you think that when a someones love one is accidental killed by an Israeli air strike , they stop and think "oh gee why did they kill my family, was it because of Hezbollah!" no!
No one should be expected to think rationally when their country is attacked, we didn't
When 9/11 happened did We care why we were attacked?
No!
We only cared who was attacking us and how to get back at them.
I'm not condoning Hezbollah
I just think its pretty stupid that people think, that anyone would think rationally when their love ones are killed.

Most people I know don't think rationally on a daily basis.

Noone was "accidentally killed". Cluster bombs were used with the intent of killing everyone in the vicinity. How is that accidental? Israel has percise weaponry, but chose not to use them, instead using these weapons that do not discriminate. Even if they were thinking rationally I hardly doubt they would blame Hezbollah for the lives lost. You see, people seem to think that Hezbollah kidnapped soldiers in Israel, when in fact they were kidnapped more than 6 miles over the border in Lebanon. Our media condones Israeli lies. If the capture of two Israeli soldiers was reason enough for Israel to kill innocent people in Lebanon, then Lebanon should have all our bombed Israel decades ago since they take political prisoners and soldiers all of the time. This war is all about a land grab by the Israelis and a preemptive war for the larger scale war which is to come with Iran. The people of Lebanon are no strangers to Israeli violence. In 1982, the Israelis feared an alliance between the Lebanese Muslims, the Palestine refugees, and Syria. Between August 1981 and May 1982, the PLO maintained a truce, sponsored by the United States and Saudi Arabia, on Lebanon's southern border. Israel violated the truce 2,777 times. The Israelis pulled a sneak attack on Syria's air defense batteries in the Bekaa valley. Syria fought back and lost 40 planes.

The Lebanese army did nothing, the PLO was light resistance, and the Syrians fought a couple of battles, but signed a truce on June 11th.

By June 13th, Israel and Bashir Gemayel's Christian Maronites had Beirut surrounded.

In the most brutal siege in modern history, Israel kills 30,000 civilians, in a massacre using army, naval and air power, to bomb schools, orphanages, and hospitals.

In 67 days, Israel, using ground, naval, and air forces, as well as anti-personnel shells, butchered over 30,000 civilians, maimed 40,000, chased 500,000 out of Beirut, and destroyed the city.

So if you really think they are going to blame a group who vows to protect them to the best of their capabilities from the evil Israeli government, you have to rethink your opinion. The Lebanese Army isn't doing much to protect their people. I'm sure they are thanking Hezbollah for their attempt in protecting and standing up for them.

We didn't care "why" we didn't care "who" we didn't care that our president had a memo on his desk about the whole deal. We were still not thinking rationally when several months later we went into Iraq who had attacked us a grand total of NEVER.

Israel does tend to get a little heavy handed in response, but they are surrounded by people who want to rid the earth of them. They have a larger budget for collateral damage than we would.

I honestly DON'T think that any Muslim thinks rationally. How can you trust a book that was written by a guy who condones beheading of anyone who will not convert or pay a non-Muslim tax. It's clear this guy was out for money and power. He had no interest in improving peoples lives.

No, most people do not have the self-control to put their anger and grief on hold and think rationally.

But it is a learnable skill.
