There's a way to make a point and there's a way to make a point. When you throw in and compare the IDF to the Wehrmacht in Russia and Europe, you've just gone too far.
And they are showing maximum restraint.
A week's worth of missions. 250 max civilian dead. That's nothing.
It's also hard to show restraint when Hezbollah infrastructure and Lebanese infrastructure are the same thing. Hezbollah is part of the Lebanese govt we want to prop up. They're a major part of it. They own Lebanon south of Beirut.
It's like love and marriage. You can't have one without the other.
Then he syas that the IDF should nuke Damascus and Tehran instead. What happened to restraint?

I bet the Major does not have business interests in Syria or Iran.
...because he loves the Lebanese, not the Syrians or Lebanese.....and he hates the military wing of Hezbollah much more then the political wing....before you start, even Newt Gingrinch said he has no problem if Hezzie wants to spount politics...just disarm and get rid of the military part.....but yes...I agree...probably impossible to do both to that ultra hate group......
You just might have a different opinion if one of the 250 dead was your mother, father, brother, sister, cousin, friend, neighbor, associate, etc. You would probably be upset, unless you do not possess the normal range of human emotion. You might just blame Israel, the folks that dropped the bombs. And if you had no way to vent your frustration you might just find a way to get back....thus, the circle of violence in the MidEast.
