Does it make a difference? A democratic functioning Lebanon is in Israel's interest. Israeli's unrestrained attacks are threatening to destroy the fledging democratic government.
The Maronite Christians were once close allies with the Israelis. What good does it do Israel to bomb Maronite Christian neighborhoods in Beruit, as it did yesterday? 30-40% of Lebanese are Christians.
The Israelis are demanding that the Lebanese army stop Hezbollah. Yet the Israelis have been bombing Lebanese Army barracks, killing Lebanese soldiers.
How is this anthing but stupid as well as brutal?
