[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From the Washington Post…unfortunately the headline selectively reads the strike was on a Hezbollah leader but it’s clear with 4-6 buildings destroyed this is not selective targeting.

Since it began Monday with a ferocious aerial barrage, Israel’s military operation against Hezbollah has killed more than 700 people in Lebanon and set off a spiraling humanitarian crisis.

It was too early to tell the real toll of Friday’s strike, said Firass Abiad, Lebanon’s health minister. Four to six buildings were “completely demolished,” he added. “We expect fatalities to be high if there were people inside their apartments.[/quote]

The civilian death toll would be minimal if Hezbollah was not intentionally planting their weapons and leadership into civilian areas.

Is it justifiable to kill hundreds of civilians to decimate the leadership of the Hezbollah? Is it justifiable to potentially kill hundreds of civilians to save tens of thousands?

"War is cruelty, and you cannot refine it."

Be thankful you are not in a position where you must make these decisions. [/quote]
