The value of deterrence

[LebanesePride]

I dont think itd be suicidal for hezballah not to retaliate.

Not like its supporters are gonna wake up tomorrow and say "hey we didnt retaliate for mughniyyeh, im leaving hezballa".

Katyusha hits Galilee community; 3 lightly hurt

Rocket fired from Lebanon lands near home in northern community, lightly injuring three members of the same family ; sources say second Katyusha landed in Lebanese territory, launching may be result of weather-related malfunction; IDF returns fire; Hizbullah denies involvement

Here is something strange.

On one hand Hezbollah claims to have South under complete control, on other hand somebody who is not Hezbollah is firing rockets into Israel.

Must we conclude that either shooting rockets is done with HA blessing or HA does not control South? Which is it?

But most importantly, how long do you think Israel will tolerate this before all hell brakes loose?

Lebanon just started to rebuild. It would be shame to see all your efforts go down the drain ... again.

I would say that it's far easier to stop a suicide bomber from penetrating Israel from the West Bank than it is to prevent somebody from launching a missile from the Middle of nowhere. It's obvious that you've never seen South Lebanon. Its terrain is mountainous and there are many wooded areas. My grandmother could probably set up a missile and fire it off if she wanted.

And you're acting as if Israel doesn't have as much to lose from a military engagement with Lebanon as the Lebanese do.

BTW, healthy sense of fear never hurt anybody. I hope Israel is smart enough to fear you.

This is probably the stupidest thing I've ever read. You need to stop lying to yourself because it's getting pretty annoying. I was thinking you'd eventually have your views whittled down by all of the logic being thrown at you, but it seems that you're either so dense or fanatical that it won't happen.

Israel spends a lot of time and effort on psychological warfare, you tool. How many propaganda leaflets has it dropped in Gaza and South Lebanon over the years? What about phone calls to peoples' homes during the war telling them to stop their support of Hezbollah? What was the 2009 terror operation against Gaza for? To stop rockets? No, tool, it was to try to strike fear in the hearts of Palestinians. That obviously failed.

If they wanted an equal partner, they would never have had aspirations for a Jewish-only state. That's not equality, tool. That's called discrimination. Israeli Arabs are discriminated against within Israel, tool. The Israelis don't even have equal partners within their own boundaries.

Look, when you finally decide to be a man, that is, be honest with yourself and with me instead of regurgitating propaganda lines, then you'll start getting serious responses. If you want to be a child, keep acting like you do.

So far,we have tolerated Israeli's measured responses,because we are fair and patient people.

But do not fool yourself.We are watching you very closely and we have you and we also have each millimeter of the occupied lands, right under our sight and our range of fire.

If Israel even thinks of widening its responses, or even thinks of responding in a non measured fashion,believe me when i tell you that hell will brake loose on the Zionist state and you will have nobody to blame for its destruction and the loss of many Jewish lives,but the Zionist government that would have taken the last stupid mistake in your brief history.

But i'm sure you know that very well.So do yourselves a favor and be smart...for once.

Or suffer the consequences.

I think we should agree on one thing.

Israel cannot control the manner in which it is going to be attacked by you and you cannot control the manner in which Israel will respond to your attacks.

Call me crazy but considering the above the best solution for you would be not to buck for another divine victory.
