disproportionate
But if the Lebanese will not or cannot keep them leashed then they have no cause for complaint.

There is no such thing as a disproportianate response when your goal is to rescue and protect your own citizens.
​
So if it was two million Lebanese civillians that had been killed, that still wouldn't be disproportionate?

Re: disproportionate
I found myself believing that one of mine is worth more than all of theirs combined
​
Who are 'they'? I thought 'they' were Hezbollah, but is it the case that 'they' include innocent civillians who are worth basically nothing compared with one of your soldiers?
​
Does that mean its OK for American civillians to be killed because of Guantanamo bay? After all, the US government has it in their power to return the insurgents and get out of the Middle East whenever they like.
