Tell you what. As far as we all REALLY know, Hezbollah has committed NO acts of terror. Why dont you try and go write history on them and do some reporting from inside the group. When you and others in this free and open moral society report back on atrocities... I somehow doubt you will be reporting back. Maybe you can act as liason for leaflet writing when they fire their rockets.
Do you really think Israel has ordered its military to purposely TARGET INNOCENT men, women and children? Where is your evidence, and what purpose would this serve? The Israeli Press as well as any Western News organizations would absolutely love to get a hold of this evidence. Im sure the Hezbollah Press would ...

Well, some people would say the Qana bombing was fairly much an attack on civilians. Also the recent bombing and obliteration of a dairy farm (a dairy farm??) is evidence Israel is trying to bring economic poverty to Lebanon. There are also dozens of incidents of the Israelis targeting civilian infrastructure sites in Gaza, including the decimation of a power station supplying about 2/3 of all electrical power to Gaza.
There have been dozens of UN Sec Council resolutions condemning Israel's military actions against civilians, mostly in Gaza. They always recieve a 13-1 vote (The U.S. is the 1) against Israel.
Many folks believe "Collective Punishment" is a standard part of Israeli military strategy. Who's to say they are right or wrong?
