Tell us what you would have done ted.

Btw, it's not "indiscriminate bombing"...

Hezbollah, a militant org. from Syria, took two Israeli soldiers. You think that warrants bombing the hell out of Beirut and Tripoli??? That's not fighting back; its being stupid and sets back your president's goal of democracy for Lebanon.

The existence of Hezbollah sets back the goal of democracy in Lebanon as well. Evidently Hezbollah is better armed than the Lebanese army. Israel's destruction of Hezbollah's military capability could be a good thing for Lebanese democracy.

I do not condone Israel's indiscriminate bombing of Lebanon. Lebanon has asked for a ceasefire and should be given one.

Can the Lebanese government enforce its side of a cease fire and prevent Hezbollah from attacking? If not, what good is a ceasefire with the Lebanese government? It was Hezbollah, an armed illegal militia, that attacked Israel and responded to Israel's attacks on it.
