I hope Israel wipes Hizbollah out.
The thing I don't understand is why Israel bombed so much of Lebanon's infrastructure. Now, if they bombed Damascus, that'd be perfectly legitimate, imo, or Tehran.
Lately Israel's gov seems to be under so much pressure they've been driven mad. Driving Israelis from their farms in Gaza, giving them to Hamas, and then destroying Gaza makes no sense whatsoever.
Nor does it make sense to destroy lebanon, imo.

Re: On a Ceasefire
Huh? a "humanitarian ceasefire" eh?
You are ignoring the facts buzz mentionedhere. The ceasefire was proposed after Hizbollah made their attack and were suffering defeat. So it's not just a humanitarian ceasefire, but a ceasefire aiding and helping Hizbollah.

Re: I hope Israel wipes Hizbollah out.
Israel bombded some oil depots creating a massive environmental problem ruining a tourist beach that had nothing to do with Hizbollah.
I understand attacking Hizbollah. I think bowing to international pressure to do something like remove the pest-free farms from Israel and then go back in and blow it all up could be signs the pressure is causing a crack in Israel's gov sanity as far as policy.
My hope is Israel go in and destroy their enemies sufficiently to end this stuff, at least for awhile.
