Israel, your reaction agaist Lebanon resembles Zidane’s headbutt at the World Cup. As conflicts continue in the Middle East I view you with increasing distrust and diminishing respect.
Ever since Theodor Herzl’s conception of “the Jewish State”(1986) you were maneuvered into existence, deliberately choosing to place yourself between the fire and the frying pan of the Arab world where with over 4000 years of historical hostilities your “Right to Exist” will forever be disputed.
Doubtfully will a universal “Right to Exist” be secured by military force. Persistent belligerence, aggressiveness, colonial dominance, moral and physical dispossession of existing tenants has, and will backfire.
Hizbollah, may be neutralized for awhile but not forever. It, Hamas or other “terrorist organizations” will rise in opposition… a never ending cycle never ending in peaceful co-existence. Like in the old days, fighting Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Philistines…
Take a break, this is the 21st century! With poverty, famine, tsunamis, earthquakes, floods, disease, crime and all the other woes of humanity, with the exception of merchants of weapons who needs wanton damage, destruction and disruption when and where we all crave for a bit of peaceful sunshine?
