Because they started this war, which, in and of itself, is a war crime.

Who started the war in Grenada?

So instead of condemning the actions of the intransigent aggressors, you attack those who act in self-defense.

BTW, Israel violated Lebanese air-space [an act of war] some 11,000 times between when Israel pulled out of Lebanon and before Hizbollah crossed into Israel on 12 July.

<when Israel retaliates against DELIBERATE WAR CRIMES being perpetrated AGAINST THEM, they are dealing out their OWN punishment to the aggressors>

Israel has no special right to commit war crimes in response to Hizbollah. Israel is responsible for its own criminal behavior.

As for appeasement, that is the reddest of red herrings and you have no basis whatsoever for trying to pull that old worn old gambit.
