I just want to talk about our position on the Israel-Hezbollah conflict and the conflict itself. The United States is constantly being criticized for not demanding for an immediate cease-fire. Why are we being criticized? Yes we are homeboys with Israel but we're not their daddy; they can make their own decisions. For the first time we're actually standing on the sidelines and now we're not doing enough. It just seems like we can't win these days.
I have mixed feelings about Israel's role in this conflict. On one hand I hate that they're killing so many civilians such as the other day in Qanna (I can't remember the city). On the other hand what is Israel supposed to do? They have constantly warned (as they say at least) the people of these citizens to evacuate unless they want to take the risk of being stuck in the middle of battle. They are fighting people who launch rockets from civilian neighborhoods. Is Israel just supposed to keep taking these hits when rockets are launched from these areas?
This isn't the first time we "stood on the sidelines" in this conflict, it's just the first time recently. In the first few Arab-Israeli wars, we stood on the sidelines. And we are still selling them weapons, which is not exactly a neutral act.
