Lebanon a fait "Boom?"

And when I also read that they've bombed power stations and television stations, the infrastructure thing sounds pretty credible.
See also the destruction of bridges and the power station in Gaza a few weeks ago. I agree that the launching of missiles from Gaza (or Lebanon) is intolerable and deserves some reaction. But the massive destruction of infrastructure upon which the civilian population relies is a disproportionate and, in the long run, counterproductive response.
