Israel will rue the day they left a single twig standing in Lebanon.

evil begets evil, and terrorists are like the mythology hydra, a monstrous serpent with nine heads, and would rise up and terrorize the countryside with poisonous venom. p>

For the first time, Israel's inept government has invited more war by losing this battle. And the next one better be a win for Israel or they are in serious trouble.

I also believe they have caused us great harm in Iraq by giving terrorists across the middle east reason to fight on and refine further their tactics.

The scheme of Hizb'Allah and Hamas is very obvious now. 
To launch Katyushas at Israel then when the IDF comes in, to use anti tank missiles on Israeli tanks and Israeli positions. To lure the IDF into traps and ambushes. Hizb'Allah used anti tank missiles very extensively. Used them like RPGs.

It's very hard to counteract these anti tank missiles. So here is my solution. Israel starts manufacturing Katyushas, superior ones of course. Israel should make ten thousand and more of them. Then when Hamas and Hizb'Allah let loose on Israeli civilians, Israel answers in kind. Just fires Katyushas back at them and where they fall is up to fate. Israel should make enough Katyushas to send 5 to the Muslims for each one sent to Israel. 

Israel also selectively uses it's airpower to neutralize Hamas and Hizb'Allah. But for the most part it's a missile/rocket war. But with Israel launching a lot more of them and at Muslim civilians same as the Muslim launch on Israeli ones

It's not a defeat for Israel. Iran lost a deterrent against an Israeli (or, fill in the blank) air-strike on their nuke sites.

Hezbollah blew Iran's wad.

Hamas should adopt the tactic of firing rockets from apartment houses. A few rockets fired from dispersed apartment houses should be a very effective battle tactic.

Another good tactic would be to fire rockets from buildings near the beach.

These tried and true Hezbollah tactics will assure a Hamas victory.
