Yes Karen, and Israel is bombing Christian areas of Lebanon now, according to CNN this morning. How are they "terrorists" - an interesting word that now applies to anyone that does not agree with the US or Israel. As a long-time supporter of Israel, is is clear that they are the aggressor and bully now. We will obviously do nothing to stop them. Will the rest of the world? The Arab League? I am amazed that nothing is being done to help Lebanon now. Many of the people there are against terrorism, yet are still being bombed - and their country's infrastructure is being destroyed - ports, roads, a lighthouse today - this is evil collective punishment - and is as bad as any bomb in a Tel Aviv cafe, IMHO. They killed 15 people in a minibus in Lebanon. The world must condemn the Israeli actions, and finally give them an ultimatum to stop, or face the consequences. I'm sure the US will not do it - but a resolution in Congress giving them a deadline to stop attacks, or face immediate cut off of our UN veto, all economic and military aid - might do the trick. Pressure from the Arab countries could also do something. We have a situation now with a bully that was hurt, now running amok and slaughtering innocents, and destroying billions in infrastructure that will take many years if not decades to rebuild. This is not acceptable, as you have said.
