Incompetence shouldnt be assigned the respect of Intent. If they had Israels capacity, Israel wouldnt exist. Not a man or a woman or a child. Palastine from the river to the sea.
I agree with the incompetence on the part of Israel, but I disagree with Israel's capacity. There is only 1 reason, and that is America's support (both monetary and military).
Do Israeli civilians deserve to have high explosives chucked at the daily? The answer will lie on your perspective of wether they are people , or wether they are dirty zionists from the Soldier in the tank, to the baby in the pram.
Who exactly said this? I can't see anyone in this thread who has. In fact most recognise that some Israeli's are against Israel's policies.
Lets look at the facts now. How many civillians has Israel killed in relation to how many Hezbollah has killed? Now who see's who as dirty? Who has cut off water supplies, kidnapped thousands, shot children on purpose, and tortured for fun? I don't think you can even compare the firing of rockets to Israels human rights record.
And yes, Hezbollah was extatic that they were not beaten, and would have ascribed it firstly to Allahs protection and then to poor jewish fighting spirit. "Ha! See them run? They are not true men! We are LIONS!"
I don't see what this has to do with the argument. If it helps you maintain the stereotype in your head then feel free to think about it but its irrelevant to post here.
The idea that Israel carried out a very limited campaign with great concern for casulties and little regard for their own troops over the Lebanese civilians, then pulled out due to International pressure? This never crosses their minds. Nor that Israel's airforce could have sortied 400 strikes a day day and night and reduced the cities to ash along with everyone in it.:hmm:
They pulled out because of heavy losses, and its not a limited campaign when you outnumber another army by so much.
Again lets look at the facts; Hezbollah purposefully stayed away from populated areas and fought in the open and yet Israel still managed to kill civillians. So much for regard for civillians right? This is coming from a country which has been shown to bomb residential areas, water supplies, and schools on purpose.
Yes, Israel could have bombed the whole country. They could nuke anything they like. How is that an argument though? It just shows they are like a big bully who steals lunch money and then beats up the victim. There are always bigger bullies though and I doubt America would stand by Israel for long if that happened.
