The colonial mindset is "terrorize the natives and they will fall before you." In reality no war has a 100% kill rate of an enemy. What Israel is doing is creating scores of enemies out of everyone who loses someone.

And just suppose Israel does succeed in wiping out Hezbollah in Lebanon down to the last fighter? There's still Iran.

I'm with you, ,ndo. Israel has gone mad and the US props up the warmaking. It's not a lot different in many ways from our campaign on Russia.
