As an Israeli, I ache for all those innocents who died, injured or became refugees on both sides. There are never winners at wars, both parties always lose and suffer.
The Israeli-Arab conflict is older than us all. You can call me pessimistic but i do believe it will still be here after us.
We didn’t choose our wars, we strive for peace with our neighbours like the peace we have with Egypt and Jordan for years now.
The attack on Lebanon is the unavoidable reaction to the impudence terror attacks by the Hizballa that are originated from south Lebanon.
The government in Lebanon has ignored the Hizballa and allowed him to armed with rockets and missiles and prepare its attack on Israel.
The kidnapping of our soldiers was intended to escalate the fighting between Israel and the Hizballa by causing Israeli ground forces to enter Lebanon so Hizballa can fight them as the “protector of Lebanon”.
If the Lebanese are so peaceful, why havn’t they exile the Hizballa out of their country. From my point of view, we are all paying the price on both sides. there are israeli deads, injured and refugees as well.
No one has the right to claim israel is over reacting before living here for a decade and see and experience Israeli life.
Like i have said,
I ache for all the innocent on both sides. Yet, I’ll be delighted if Islamic terror worlwide would extinct in my life time.
