Because Israel does not have B-52s, and their direct acquisition might have been sticky.

Just as sticky as their acquiring our F15s and F16s. They do not need heavy long range bombers.

The Israeli military is not stupid.

Does that mean Geneva's is not an issue anymore?

B52 is a strategic heavy bomber. Strategic assets [like Trident subs] are not easily acquireable - Tridents are for the Brits only, so it could have become sticky. In view of Iraq/Osirac and now Iran they do need heavy bombers with significant range, for working at the extreme range limit is no fun. And as for them being not stupid - sometimes they do look that way, like in this case.

Cowardly placing their rockets smack dab in the middle of Arab civlian populations and sending countless suicide/homicide bombers to murder Israeli citizens, Hezbollah (and other Islamist terrorist orgs) long ago reached the "no limits" level. .....no limits to their inhumanity.

Actually, I have no doubt that with the support of Syria and Iran (and to a lesser extent, North Korea), Hizbolla has thourougly mined every road and field in southern lebanon, so that when tanks roll in, they'll be knocked out of commission or destroyed. I have no doubt that they've also got chemical and biological weapons, and may very well use them, although it would be suicidal for Syria or Iran to allow their use. On the other hand, the Iranian lunatic did say that losing a few million muslims would be worth the destruction of Israel.

What they could use are 40 or 50 MLRS systems! While they don't have quite the "impact" of a squadron of heavy bombers, they can pummel the heck out of a rather large area.

"As long as the enemy has no limits, we will have no limits."

Haven't nuked your sorry a$$es yet have they? If not, then they've imposed limits on themselves.

Oh for cripes sake. If America had suffered proportionally them same kind of attacks, we would have nuked 3 countries and not left a single mosque standing in our borders.

Is this article accurate? Did the US really "demand an end to Israeli military operations"? I read quite the opposite earlier and I have also noticed that the MSM are lying a lot as usual. I'm not buying this.
