Just read this on Yahoo:

"Israeli warplanes attack Beirut airport
AP - 1 hour, 24 minutes ago
BEIRUT, Lebanon - Israel intensified its attacks Thursday against Lebanon, blasting Beirut's airport and a Lebanese army air base near the Syrian border, and imposing a naval blockade. More than 50 people have died in violence following the capture of two Israeli soldiers by Hezbollah militants. Warplanes punched holes in the runways of Beirut's international airport and Lebanon's main military air base 30 miles to the east, an attack that could draw the Lebanese army into the conflict."

Now, if we were to attack a civilian airport to try and gain the return of two of our missing soldiers captured by an organization not directly affiliated with the country we are attacking, how much flak do you think we would catch? The Israelis have killed at least 50 people trying to gain the return of their two soldiers. This is going to get ugly. The only thing that could be worse is if the Chinese ally themselves with the Arabs in exchange for oil for their booming economy. Then we will have one heck of a war and possibly a World War where the US, Israel, and China will have nukes.
