Do you think...?

Question

do you think the war in lebanon a year ago was necessary?
do you think that israel was acting out of self defense?
i was there, i know what happened. israel was on lebanese territory, so hezbollah took advantage of that. both were wrong, but was it necessary for israel to come in and bomb innocent civilians? the apartment where i was staying was bombed. that's not self defense, that's just random bombing!!! what do you think?

Answer 1

i agree
i observe that israel conducts themselves in matters of war/conflict pretty much like the u.s. by expecting to be able to do whatever they want at any given time, justified or not, and have everyone else accept whatever they do or say! i've noticed that both countries have the idea that it is o.k. for them to decide who are the good guys and who aren't....and it seems to me that the 'bad' guys are always the ones who don't agree with their agendas! both have very arrogant styles of politics and inter-actions with other peoples of the world and i think it will all come back on them eventually, natural karma, or, what goes around comes around....

Answer 2

First be honest and fair about it . It wasn't 'random bombing' . Next , I know it's not fair but if you've got 10 or 15 thousand terrorists responsible for countless acts of terror on the people of Israel , you can't blame Israel for striking back . I would suggest that the people living near Hezbollah should stand-up and do something about it , or if you think it's too dangerous or too late to do anything , then you and the others should leave and allow the necessary work to be done . Wherever Hezbollah is , there's devastation . So leave the devastation for awhile until it can be cleaned-up and made safe again for you and everyone else .

Answer 3

Well, Hezbollah is one of the most dangerous enemies for Israel basically. I think Israel made right decision to attack Hezbollah. Most people normally think that Hezbollah is a terrorist organization because they frequently use suicide bombing method to assault other people and Hezbollah is not good for both of Lebanese and international people. As you said, Israel bombed to civilian residences, that story pretty scared the world. However, most Israeli authorities said Hezbollah was hidden and shielded in civilian residences to attack Israeli soldiers. Finally, I just wanna say "War is bad for everybody".

Answer 4

Although Israel did what ever was against the humanity and simple principles of man kind but I think Hezbollah shouldn’t have excited them to start war. biting is the nature of Israel so you shouldn’t make it to bite! In the new world, violence has no place, so governments try to justify it, thereby others should be clever and don’t do any thing that helps them to do that.

Answer 5

Honestly, Israel gets a bad reputation because they have to be bad asses. But reality is they have big weapons, and they can't tell their enemies from their friends because their enemies hide behind civillians. Israel is to blame, but so are those that support Hezbollah and the other enemies, you leave israel no choice but to bomb innocents when you let the enemies hide behind you.

Answer 6

I agree with you... if Israel were not supported by the United States then Israel woul have faced serious sanctions from the UN. Israel was seriously and roundly condemned from the international community for that action in 2006.

Answer 7

in the isreali and muslim religon an eye for an eye goes i guess a civilian for a civilian is ok

Answer 8

They fight each other b/c their religions tell them to. they fight b/c as long as the other exists they can't stand each other. i say it is completely unnecessary. The Hezbollah find anny excuse to kill more ppl that are not in their religion. its sick.

Answer 9

I think you are right!
