Why try defend the indefensible by pointing at the indefensible actions of the other side?

No one here, so far as can see has been trying to say that Hezbollah firing off rockets in the direction of Israel was right. It was terrorism. But the activities of the IDF in escalating a relatively minor border clash into a full scale war also very clearly involved what by most definitions amounted to terrorism - and pretty clearly had the effect of very greatly increasing the firing of Katyusha rockets against Israeli targets.

What we have seen is terrorism by one side leading to terrorism by the other side, leading to more terrorism by the other side...
