When you are celebrating the death of 1200 Lebanese and billions of dollars in property damage, well, that speaks for itself.
You fail to understand that Hizbollocks unilaterally chose to wage an act of war against Israel. As Hizbollocks held seats in the Lebanese Parliament, they hold responsibility for the results of their act of war.
Hizbollocks, as is typical for Islamic terrorist cowards, chose not to wage war as a uniformed military but performed in the usual, cowardly Islamic fashion and waged war from civilian areas.
Ultimately, there was no standstill. Israel dismantled the majority of the Islamic terrorists and chose not to continue a month long air campaign followed by a ground invasion to thoroughly trash Lebanon in the program of rooting out your terrorist heroes.
Bu honestly, who cares about 1200 dead Lebanese when the the Iranian Mullocrats can send in their Hizbollocks stooges to pin prick Israel.
Blah, blah. Standard hasbara excuses to cover up the IDF's humiliation. Even your Winograd commission reported, "Israel initiated a long war, which ended without a defined military victory...a semi-military organization of a few thousand men resisted, for a few weeks, the strongest army in the Middle East, which enjoyed full air superiority and size and technology advantages."
"Blah blah". I am, of course, impressed by such a stunningly concise argument. Additionally, your use of the " hasbara" slogan is standard islamo-weasel for a failed argument.
Next time, I'll expect to see
The Zionists™ peppering your posts.
But all seriousness aside, I just find it curious that you never addressed the unilateral actions of hizbollocks in connection with their war-like actions and the resulting death and destruction suffered by the Lebanese.
And let's be honest, had Israel chosen to let loose with an unlimited war, they could have caused far greater mayhem than what Lebanon suffered. Had that occurred, you and others would be in a perpetual whine-fest about Israel "not playing fair" by using the options available in their arsenal.
You're disappointed that more death and destruction wasn't railed on Lebanon so that you can buttress your insensate Joooooooo hatreds. You want to excuse the actions of your hero Iranian mullocrats for unleashing their hizbollocks dogs as it calms an emotional requirement to dismiss the Lebanese dead as something other than the wages of Islamic terrorism.
Oh, please. Crocodile tears for the victims of
Zionist™aggression really doesn't cut it. The
Zionists™had smart weapons in 2006 along with bunker busters; they could have taken out Hezbullah with minimum civillian casualties amongst the Lebanese. Instead the IDF launched a policy of collective punishment (war crime) against the Lebanese civillian population, with remarkable similarity to that used by the Nazis in WW2:
High-ranking officer: Halutz ordered retaliation policy
Crocodile tears are in order for your misrepresentation.
There was no aggression by
The Zionists™. You're hoping to sidestep the acts of the hizbollocks stooges. They were the aggressors and instigators.
Additionally, your silly reference to bunker busters is nonsensical. They are not used against terrorists in an urban environment. Similarly, smart weapons can be useful against Islamic terrorists waging war from civilian areas, but there are always civilian casualties when cowardly Islamic terrorists were from from populated cities.
Hizbollocks chose to unilaterally wage war even though they held seats in the Lebanese parliament thus acting with disregard to the safety and welfare of the Lebanese people they represented.
But yeah, ultimately hizbollocks and their Iranian mullocrats caused just another pile of dead Arabs. That pin prick to Israel was orgasmic for you and those like you.
Crocodile tears are in order for your misrepresentation.
You are the one misrepresenting the facts, but that's only to be expected from a Hasbara troll. Even the
Zionists™disagree with you:
Winograd commission reported, "Israel initiated a long war, which ended without a defined military victory...a semi-military organization of a few thousand men resisted, for a few weeks, the strongest army in the Middle East, which enjoyed full air superiority and size and technology advantages."
Winograd commission, aka "The commission of inquiry into the events of military engagement in Lebanon 2006" was damning in it's assessmet of Zionist Israeli incompetence at all levels,
"The report categorised the 2nd Lebanon war as a serious missed opportunity. The war had ended without clear military victory, a much smaller para-military organization successfully resisted against a much larger force which had complete air superiority among other technological advantages. Lebanese rockets aimed at Israel's civilian population continued throughout the war which Israel could not effectively stop. Life in the affected regions of Israel was seriously disrupted, with many civilians either leaving their homes temporarily or spending time in shelters. When Israel initiated a large scale ground offensive the offensive did not result in military gains and was not completed.
Some of the troubling findings revealed that there were serious failings and shortcomings in the decision-making processes at both the political and military levels, in preparedness, decision-making and performance in the IDF, particularly the army, in strategic thinking and planning, in both the political and the military echelons, and in the defence of the civilian population and in coping with rockets.
The decision to react immediately to the kidnapping limited Israel's range of options to only two, a stand-off war or an invasion. Israel went to war before it had decided which option to use and military and political echelons failed to have a serious discussion of the options or decide between them. Even so, until the first week of August, Israel was unprepared to launch a large-scale ground operation.
As a result, Israel was 'dragged' into a ground operation too late. Despite the fact that it was a limited war initiated by Israel itself, Israel did not use its military force well and effectively. Israel did not gain a political achievement because of military successes.
In the end, the IDF failed to provide an effective military response to the challenges posed. This conclusion must not take away the great willingness of the soldiers, especially reserve soldiers, to serve and fight in the war. There were many instances of heroism, courage, self-sacrifice and devotion of many commanders and soldiers. The air force in particular was superb, however they alone could not prove decisive as the air force was necessarily limited, due to the weaknesses in the overall performance of the IDF."
