You don't understand, here on FR you must agree with everything Israel does or you will immediately be marginalized. If Israel carpet bombed fleeing women and children in Lebanon and George Bush asked them to show restraint he would be criticized. The other day eight innocent Canadians were killed in an Israeli bombing raid in Lebanon and the general response here on FR was that they weren't "real Canadians" and therefore they deserved to die. Absolutely no sympathy for the fact that innocent people were being slaughtered. Major Bob has served his country (that would be the USA) honorably, but now that he has spoken out against Israel he will be trashed. Israel first here.
Well, I would be alright with the carpet bombing part. I think it's thirty years overdue.
But I'm trying to give a veteran the benefit of the doubt. They deserve it one time at least.

Israel was attacked by Hezbollah, not the other way around. Israel withdrew from Lebanon SIX YEARS AGO. There is no occuption by Jews of Lebanon. Hezbollah, probably at the instructions of Iran and/or Syria, attacked without provocation, killed Israeli soldiers, and kidnapped two of them after invading Israeli territory to do their dastardly deed. Now, if you can't figure out who's at fault here, your complete political ignorance is showing bigtime. And perhaps you, like Major Bob, don't like Jews that much, do you. Trying to mask it like Buchanan does. But the majority of Freepers will see through you, I suspect. I do.
