Just continuing to post some news -
10 Israelis were killed in rocket attacks and 13 seriously wounded today, coming on the heels of the deaths of a mother and her three daughters yesterday. Now for the requisite disclaimers: I am not discussing Israeli tactics here nor defending them. I am posting this because the attacks of Hezbollah are under-represented and certainly under-condemned on this board.
I post this with trepidation, as my last post had countless commenters justifying Hezzbolah rocket attacks, while others continued to mix up Hezzbolah and the Lebanese army and nation, which they are not. But most understood it is possible to simply condemn Hezbollah without it equaling a defense of Israel. UPDATE BELOW
As always, I pray for peace and an immediate cease fire and an end to the innocent deaths of Israelis and Lebanese. Every single innocent death is a family and a circle of loved ones heartbroken forever, and each is a tragedy. My cousin was called up on reservist duty and sent north in Israel and I am just holding my breath.
UPDATE: A Hezbollah rocket blast also injured three Chinese peacekeepers on Sunday, the Chinese state media reported, citing a Chinese officer.
I'm sure there will be a rush on Dailykos to condemn this "apparently deliberate" attack on UN peacekeepers by Hezbollah.
