Rockets did fall before Israel launched the campaign.
They fired rockets on kiryat shmona while the kidnapping was going on—to create a distraction—damaging houses and causing trauma. But when rockets fall on Jews I guess it's not a big deal for the media.
So Israel fires back—Israel has better weapons. If you hit someone—they might hit you back.
Hizb'alla are not an official army, yet they are operating from within a state. The Palestinian prisoners are not their business, just an excuse—Hizb'allah are the imperialistic arm of Iran. I'm upset about the way the French and Spanish treat the Basques (some of them are in jail, as well)—You don't see me bombing Strassburg.
One of the soldiers in that UN post wrote two days earlier to his commander, warning him that the terrorists are acting from within their camp and he feared for his life when Israel retaliates.
Besides, the UN soldiers were there to prevent the arming and fortifaction of the Hizb'allah (in accord with the UN resolution)—If they would have done their job, this conflict would have never started.
I am an Israeli and I don't consider myself blood thirsty. However, listen to Iran's president.
While I agree with a lot of the criticism about Israel's policies in the occupied territorries, I think some of the reactions in the world are automatic.
Israel cannot agree to live with constant threat from the North, without being able to retaliate just because it's not the Lebanese army targeting Israel, but the Iranian sponsored militias that overtook that part of the country.
