OK lets all take this in to perspective on the innocent. I am an ex US Marine. I was in 1st Battalion 8th Marines in Beruit in October 1983. I was there to watch Hezballah blow up the HQ's Facility. 241 Marines and hospital personel, men and women alike died for being there to help. What about all those innocent sons and daughters of parents in the U.S. Remember we were there for a Peace Keeping mission. I lost some good friends that day!!!! Isreal has a right to defend against these terrorists. They have been getting bombed for years and just taking it. All the civilians were worned with leaflets dropped in the areas that were going to be invaded. Perhaps the ones that didn't flee to the refugee camps were Hazbollah followers. Its a shame these people didn't protect thier families and leave! Not trying to upset anyone with my personal thoughts but they are what they are. Semper Fi
