And BTW, it was Israel that started this battle (just as they always do) by having their patrol go into Lebanon. where Hezbollah engaged them and captured them.

Wrong.

Again.

All I keep reading about Hezbollah is how they killed yet more IDF soldiers.


When they kill an Israeli soldier its news. If it was so common you wouldn't hear as much about it. When Israel fought Egypt you didn't have news items every time a half dozen Israeli soldiers where killed, at least not international news items.

And all I keep reading about the Israelis is how they killed yet more civilians.

When a relatively advanced an prosperous country, kills civilians, and there are pictures of it. It becomes big news. Israel is being held to a higher standard here. If it was Syria doing the killing you wouldn't here quite as much about it.

it was Israel that started this battle (just as they always do) by having their patrol go into Lebanon.

And is your proof the fact that you can produce some number of google hits, or do you have some link to information put out by Hezbollah?
