So, are you saying that Hizbullah, by DELIBERATELY TARGETING Israeli civilians with their Katyushas are guilty of war crimes? "Trying to civilize the conduct of war is like trying to civilize rape, or murder. It just can't be done. Once you unleash the "dogs of war", they don't go back in their cage easily and they generally leave a lot of "deposits" in their wake. So don't be naive. War is a mean and "ugly b*tch" and no amount of "charm school" or make-up is going to make her more attractive. Nor should anyone ever try."

So, are you saying that Hizbullah, by DELIBERATELY TARGETING Israeli civilians with their Katyushas are guilty of war crimes? Progressives know that those rockets hit empty buildings, so they don't count. If the Israelis like Hizbollah had not built bomb shelters and not evacuated 2 million people, then Hizbollah would be guilty of war crimes, but since those rotten Israelis moved their citizens and protected them Israel is guilty. Now Hizbollah left their disposable population, right where they were, so that in order to kill 500 Hizbollah fighters Israel had to kill 1300 people.... That is israels fault too. The only time Israel isn't guilty, is when two Muslims kill each other, and they were probably fighting on how to fight Israel so that is Israel's fault too.
