I have a membership card that says that. This isn't to just you but everyone that is criticizing Israel's actions:
1) I agree that the bombing of purely civilian targets is not a good idea (if that happened - with this stuff it is always hard to know what was intentional - or just a mistake, what was faked and what really happened)
2) The bombing of Lebanon will just piss off the entire Lebanese population and make them all hate Israel and sympathies with Hezbollah. In other words Israel’s action will make the entire Lebanese population hate Israel even more.
3) These actions may destablize the current moderate government so it is replaced by a more radical government. And if the moderate government stays it will definitely be more hostile to Israel.
4) But isn't the first priority of the Israeli government is to protect its citizens? How else is it going to stop the bombing of Northern Israel and the kidnapping of its soldiers without massive retaliation?
