We were siding with Israel over Lebanon (the issue, not the adversary) in the sense that we were opposed to a quick cease fire in order to permit Israel more time to try to accomplish its military objectives. The rest of the world noticed that Lebanon (generally) absorbed much the punishment, however meant for Hezbollah specifically.

2) This foiled airline plot was planned months before these recent events in Lebanon and Gaza, so I wish you and others would stop lumping it in as some precursor.

I don't believe I said that it was a precursor. To observe that our Middle East policies stirs up animus against us is not to suggest that we are the cause of all unhappiness and/or terrorism.
