Yes, it all is about two kidnappings only.
And no, enemy fighters crawling over and beside a UN post, abusing it for cover and hpoping to be untouchable, gathering intel ony my troops movement and maybe even firing at my men and killing them, are no reason to take them under fire.
I would love to live int he world some of you guys have on your minds. Must be an extremely reasonable, well-ordered, peaceful and enjoyable place. but it is not the world that I happen to live in, unfortunately. So it goes. but I find it deeply disturbing how willingly some people accept to expect Israelis letting themselves killed at every moment in their own homes and country on and on - and never, ever going after those who attack them. I find it queer and almost perverse that Hezbollah is not allowed to be fought against, because the West and Lebanon and the UN has allowed it to sink that deep into civilian infrastructures - intentionally - that now it cannot be fought against without causing massive civilian damage. I find it disgusting that Israel is blamed, where it is Hezbollah to be blamed for putting civilian lifes at risk intentionaly, in large quantities, just to score a media bonus each time the Israelis fire at Hezbollah. One must be blind, cynical and braindead not to see the qualititave differences in both parties mindsets here.
