"What does that accomplish?"
What did fire bombing Dresden and Tokyo accomplish, besides undermining the moral of the civilians who support the military?
"What I am just pounding the keyboard."
What does that mean in English?

I don't favor mass civilian slaughter as an attempt to reduce morale, and in fact it does not work; it enhances morale. It is also immoral. Count me out. I don't favor Israel sinking to the moral level of the criminal gangs who seek to destroy it.

It's only about 40% of the population that backs Hezbollah. You want to punish 60% of the population for the actions of the other 40%?
