No more Mr. Nice guy. Flatten them with carpet bombing from the sky. Every building, any structure, all roads. There should be nothing but empty, barren, terrain. Anything that moves should be shot at.

No journalists should be allowed to photograph. All communications jammed. This is all out war. They all must die.

It is time to stop proportional response. You win wars by killing so many of your enemy they beg you to stop. Ask the Germans and Japanese if it was viable for them to continue their "heroic" resistance. It is time to hold the civilian populations that support, aid, comfort, arm, and reproduce terrorist responsible for there actions. No more surgical strikes. No more leadership decapitation efforts. TOTAL WAR. Destroy the Muslim war like Rome destroyed Carthage. Tear down their cities, throw them in the seas. Salt the fields. Demand unconditional surrender.

It may come to a flat out war soon, full killing zones and all. I think things are going to get very nasty, sooner than later.

True. Short / concise.....Its' Them or Us

Normally one concentrates the artillery barrage with the tank-infantry assault in space and time.

A series of short sharp attacks delivered at different locations would nibble up the Hezbollah operating space.

The Hezbollah would be forced to counterattack, which brings them out of their holes.

The problem: what do the Israelis do with the women and children that are captured by the offensives? Of course Israel doesn't make war on women and children, and would load them onto busses and evacuate them, thus inflaming the "Arab Street" which would murder Jewish women and children out of hand. Of course Hezbollah would try to ambush the busses on their way out of the combat zone.

There is nothing like taking ground to convince an enemy that he has lost. Nothing like shooting him down by thousands as he counterattacks to reduce the population of his fighters.

You have a better chance seeing a Democrat pledge allegiance to our Flag than realizing your proposal.

I like your idea, but I would like to add to it, please: " Anything that moves should be shot at"---AND KILLED!

I think most people would go along with that, I think that someone screwed up with this war, if the Israeli's had of done as you suggest in the first week, the news, world, would have forgotten it all by now,( old news, no news ) Iran would be a place hard to find on the map as they would be trying to be as inconspicuous as possible and Lebanon, it would just be a reminder to the rest of these crackpots that you don't mess with the good guys.
