How about an actual idea to support your side instead of just "War is bad, STOP IT"

"Israel said it mistakenly destroyed a four-story building near a Hezbollah rocket-launching site"

Funny, when the strike first came out it a convoy of adults, than all of a sudden it becomes children.
Israeli troops pulled back from the border town of Bint Jbeil Saturday after a weeklong battle with Hizbullah as warplanes continued pounding towns and villages in the south.
Also Saturday, Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah threatened in a TV broadcast to attack more cities in central Israel.
Elsewhere, Israeli warplanes demolished houses, killing seven people, including a woman and her five children.
The battle for Bint Jbeil has symbolized Israel's difficulty in pushing fighters back from the border, whether by air bombardment or ground assault. Hizbullah on Friday escalated its cross-border attacks, firing longer-range missiles deeper into Israel than ever before.

Also Saturday, Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah threatened in a TV broadcast to attack more cities in central Israel.
Elsewhere, Israeli warplanes demolished houses, killing seven people, including a woman and her five children.
Lebanese civilians have born the brunt of the Israeli onslaught. The woman and her children were crushed in their home by a strike outside the market town of Nabatiyeh, which also killed a man in a nearby house, Lebanese security officials said. In the border village of Ain Arab in southeast Lebanon, six bodies were dug from the rubble of a house destroyed by a strike Friday, police said.
Thirty-two Lebanese villagers killed in Israeli raids were also laid to rest in a mass grave in the southern port city of Tyre.
With warfare in its 18th day, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice returned to the Middle East to give Lebanese and Israeli leaders a refined U.S. package of proposals aimed at ending the violence.
Washington's proposals appeared to try to take into account some elements from a new peace plan put forward late Thursday by the Lebanese government.
"The most important thing that this does for the process is that it shows a Lebanese government that is functioning as a Lebanese government," Rice told reporters during a refueling stop in Qatar. "That is in and of itself extremely important."
Rice plans to meet first with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert in Jerusalem for talks on Saturday night, said Mark Regev, spokesman for Israel's Foreign Ministry. There was no immediate word on a stop in Beirut, but Rice's visit to Lebanon earlier in the week was announced at the last minute for security reasons.
The U.S. peace plan calls for an international agreement on a U.N.-mandated multinational force to stabilize the region, according to a U.S. official.
It proposes: disarming Hizbullah and integrating the group into the Lebanese army; Hizbullah's return of Israeli prisoners; and a buffer zone in southern Lebanon to put Hizbullah rockets out of range of Israel. It also seeks to address some demands from Lebanon: a commitment to resolve the status of the Shabaa Farms area held by Israel and claimed by Lebanon; and the creation of an international reconstruction plan for Lebanon.
The United States is under increasing pressure to quickly find a way to end fighting that has killed hundreds, driven some 750,000 Lebanese from their homes and caused a humanitarian crisis.
Israeli Cabinet minister Avi Dichter said Saturday that it was unacceptable for Lebanon's government "to hide behind the claim that a terror organization is operating on their ground and they cannot stop it." He told Israeli radio that Israel holds the government fully accountable for what Hizbullah is doing there, and that "Lebanon is paying the full price these days."
More humanitarian aid arrived Saturday by sea and by air, but was piling up in Beirut. Aid convoys fear Israeli bombardment, so only a trickle has reached the war zone in south Lebanon where tens of thousands of people are stranded with dwindling supplies of medicine, food, water.
Israel on Saturday rejected a U.N. request for a three-day cease-fire to get in supplies and allow civilians to leave the war zone. The top U.N. humanitarian coordinator in Lebanon, Mona Hammam, said convoys so far had encountered "no problems" from Hizbullah.
About 90 rockets fired from southern Lebanon landed across northern Israel, police and emergency services said.
The rockets landed on or near a number of districts including the towns of Kiryat Shmona, Safed, Nahariya, Acre and Maalot, police said.
At least seven civilians and three soldiers were wounded, according to the Magen David Adom emergency service, Israel's equivalent of the Red Cross.
"Afula is only the beginning," Nasrallah said in the televised speech, referring to Friday's attacks on the northern Israeli city, the deepest yet inside Israeli territory.
He vowed three days ago to fire rockets "beyond Haifa."
"Many cities in the center will be the target of the 'beyond Haifa' phase, if the aggression continues against our (civilian) people," he said.
An explosives specialist with the Israeli police told AFP that the missile fired at Afula was Syrian-made.
Earlier Saturday, bombardment by Israeli forces and rocket fire from fighters was intense around the Hizbullah stronghold of Bint Jbeil, Lebanese security officials said.
On Friday, the Israeli army said seven of its soldiers were wounded, including one seriously, when Hizbullah fighters attacked a ridge overlooking Bint Jbeil and the nearby village of Maroun al-Ras.
Israeli troops launched their assault on Bint Jbeil on July 23, entering houses inside the town in heavy fighting. The military suffered its worst losses of the entire campaign Wednesday, with nine soldiers killed in ground fighting in and around the strategic town.(AP-AFP) (AP photo shows Adnan Haraki crying after his wife and five children were killed when an Israeli warplane hit their house in the village of Nmairieh, next to the market town of Nabatiyeh)

The way I see it is the more the Israeli's kill now the less they'll have to kill later.
They're not innocent, they hate Israel and America. Those children would have grown up to be terrorists.Originally posted by: nemesismk2

An exaggeration in more ways than one.

So Israel says it is a mistake.. How many mistakes are they allowed to make in a war? How many civilians have they killed? 90% of the casualities?

Why don't you help out the Israelies and the civilians by going to Lebanon and show the Israelies where all the bad guys are?

What is your point? That's right, you don't have any!
Where there is a rocket launched, the IDF has said they would level the entire village or town.
http://www.ariga.com/2006-07-27.shtml
"The heavy casualties suffered yesterday by the IDF in a battle at Bint Jebayel -- eight soldiers killed and more than 20 wounded -- has sparked strident calls in the press for Israel to use all the firepower at its disposal to ?level? any place in Lebanon from which Hizbollah launches rockets, whether a village in south Lebanon or a neighborhood in Tyre. Indeed, the main headline in Yedioth Aharonoth this morning was a quote from a ?senior officer? saying that was the army?s new recommendation to the government."
http://www.thestar.com/NASApp/cs/Conten...l_pageid=968256290204&col=968350116795
"Last week, Israeli Justice Minister Haim Ramon said that civilians have had plenty of time to leave the villages of southern Lebanon, and that Israel should now flatten these villages. "All those now in south Lebanon are terrorists who are related in some way to Hezbollah," Ramon said.
In fact, the situation in southern Lebanon is so dangerous that it is almost impossible for civilians ? including Canadians trapped there ? to get out. A number of civilians attempting to flee, as well as ambulance workers and UN peacekeepers, have been killed and wounded by Israeli bombs."

The same people who support Israel would support Israel even if they captured all the children in the M.E and burned them alive. They'd come up with some kind of excuse.
The same people who support the Arabs and nag about Israel's actions will always blame Israel for everything. They never talk about all the innocent people dying in Israel yet they will love to talk about the innocent people dying on the Arab side.
