like i said before, if the terrorists are cowardly enough to hide themselves behind their own civilians and make them targets, then the only ones to blame for the colatoral damage are the cowardly terrorists themselves, who obviously do not give a fuck about who they kill.

So everytime Israel blows up civilian buildings and misses Hezbollah, or gets one or two terrorists for every 50 or so civilians they kill, and AMERICAN media portrays this....It's solely just Hezbollah, and their 'human shields?'

That makes no sense.

Yeah. Hezbollah do HEAPS of news reporting. I've seen plenty of footage filmed by them. You're fucking ridiculous.

So as an analogy, Its solely the criminals fault when the police department just decide to blow the fucking building up killing all the hostages inside....?

Considerable collateral damage in this case is avoidable. If Israel just reevaluated the way they fought this war then they'd have the total support of everyone....But instead they show that innocent lives don't mean shit to them unless they're israelites.

Lebanon isn't a nation at war as much as it is a nation taken hostage by criminals.
