Subject: RE: BS: An interesting viewpoint on Lebanon
"WHY IS ISRAEL USING THE KIDNAPPING OF TWO SOLDIERS TO EXPAND ITS BORDERS INTO ANOTHER COUNTRY?"

And who says Israel is expanding its borders? Israel states it will withdraw when UNR 1559 is implemented.


"humanitarian law requires a DISTINCTION BETWEEN CIVILIAN AND MILITARY TARGETS."

Which Israel has done, and Hezbollah has NOT.


"More than 1,000 Lebanese, most of them civilians, have been killed and 123 Israelis, most of them soldiers, have also been killed. (BBC online) THAT is the crime."

AGREED. The difference is YOU blame Israel for defending itself, and I blame Hezbollah for its war crimes.
