Do you think that Israel is really responding dispproportionately ?

Heck NO! Look, if you are a bully (Hezbollah) but you are only 4 feet tall, and you pick a fight with the football team (Israel)...

Ah, Duh, you get what you deserve. Even worse when you pick on that football team, and then hide behind your grandmother when you know the football team is running full steam ahead at you. Granny is gonna get hurt too, and it's all your fault.

Israel has every right to defend herself! We shouldn't have to sit quietly while our country is being attacked in every which way!

What kind of creatures get on a crowded bus, trying to kill as many as possible? What kind of monsters run into a pizza shop with the intention of m.urdering any women, children or anyone else around? Who kidnaps civilians and soldiers on a regular basis?

Why must our children live in fear?

Israelis are hard, stubborn and rude people because that's the only way we can survive this daily routine of experiencing d.eath close up; attending funerals of so many loved ones; surviving an attack by a s.uicide b.omber.

We kicked out THOUSANDS of families from their homes, some have been living in TENTS for the better part of a year now, just to quiet the arabs. What do we get for it? Rockets and missiles fired from that same land we gave them, deeper into Israel than ever before.

Everywhere you go in this country you see plaques in memory of the peopler who were m.urdered in that very spot. Enough is enough. We can't stay quiet any longer.

I don't expect everyone to understand, but if you just live in Israel for a little while, I'm sure you too will experience the same anxiety we do every time we see someone carrying a big black bag on the bus. You might feel the same way we do when we turn on the radio in the morning, just knowing something terrible has happened; just waiting to hear the names of those who were killed.

Just some more food for thought:

Yes. For an example, When the IRA were bombing Northern Ireland and England, Did the British government blow the hell out of Southern Ireland.NO, because innocent people would have died. Instead they opened peace talks and things are starting to get sorted.

some real winners here... let me try to imitate them...

of course not, you're a cabbage patch doll[His-bowler] and you go upto a rotweiler[Izzy-Raoul] what yer expectn to happen? then you try to run and hide beside a briar patch and you soil your knickers that grammy sewed for ya. now, grammy gonna cry.

i think the brilliance of dog mama shines.

Israel should kill as many children as possible. it makes them appear cool and Old School Testament-like but like that, like germanically modified with Lawrence Taylor. mmmm, germanically modified organisms...

Hey, Dog Mama, I like your response! {:>) Thanks! No, we are not responding disproportionally. As was mentioned, Hezbullah hides themselves in residential neighborhoods and puts their rocket launchers even inside homes. The IDF drops leaflets and even calls people to tell them that they have a rocket launcher in their home and they have the choice of getting rid of it or leaving it there. If they choose to leave it there....Hezbullah does not have the interest of the Lebanese at heart. Lebanon is being held captive by them!

Only if you're anti-Israel & pro-Islam.
