Hezbollah is a dangerous terrorist organisation which must be dismantled. Their rocket attacks on Israel were unquestionably an act of aggression, and Israel had every right to defend itself. But I don't believe that defence entails destruction of Lebanon's - not Hezbollah's, LEBANON's - infrastructure and the taking of innocent lives - especially when there were more effective options available. Would not a covert military operation against Hezbollah's leaders have been more effective than a full-scale invasion of Lebanon? Do correct me if I'm wrong in this perception, I don't know much about military strategy :o.

What I do know is that war is hell. Nobody "wins" a war. I agree with Holly - if you want to take sides and damn somebody, damn war itself.
