Again and again I've tried to make the same point by asking the regular participants on this thread if they accept that Israel has the right to any borders, any borders at all, and a parallel right to defend those borders. There is a four way split I have observed in the responses:

1) Outright rejection of Israel with any borders, in effect, a rejection of Israel's right to exist.

2) Verbal agreement that Israel has the right to borders, but diffidence in allowing Israel to respond to Hezbollah, which we can all agree is in category 1).

3) Agreement that Israel has the right to borders, but difficulty in accepting the level of response, at least on the part of Israel, in the recent conflict.

4) Agreement that Israel has the right to borders, and acceptance for the most part in Israel's level of response under the Hezbollah attacks.

I do not think comparisons with the Nazis are germaine to the discussion, but they do serve to shed more heat than light and maybe that's what some of y'all are goin' for.
