Hezbolla has been operating out of Lebanon with the full consent and support of the government and a large part of the population. Hezbollah (and therefore Lebanese) attacks on Israel in the past few years have killed far more civilians than the current Israeli attacks on Lebanon.
Unsubstantiated.
Speculation.
Assumption.
Hezbolah does not speak for Lebanon any more than the KKK speaks for America.
Has Lebanon made any significant attempt to remove Hezbollah from their midst? That is really the main question for me if this war from Israel is justified. But I'm not sure why I'm even talking about this with a Burger King employee that is apparently having emotional issues.
Gee I guess it's rather hard to remove an armed group like Hezbollah when your government has been restricted by the policies of Israel and US. Funny how convenient that is, isn't it? Don't let Lebanon build up any substantial police or army force and then complain when they are ineffective at stopping a sophisticated armed guerilla group within their country.
It's like the argument Israel makes to Palestinian government not doing anything to take care of the terrorists there after Israel demolishes the police stations and rolls over the police cars with their tanks.
