British Prime Minister Tony Blair’s website notes, ”Over 1,600 rockets and mortars have fallen on Northern Israel, in an arc from Haifa to Tiberias, deliberately targeting civilians.”

Yes, Israel has killed civilians. This is what happens in war, even as practiced by a country that strives to follow the civilized rules. And it necessarily has to happen in a war involving a terrorist organization which intentionally attacks from, and hides among, civilian population centers. But Israel is trying to hit military targets (and often undermines its military mission by providing humanitarian warnings to civilians before it attacks, which of course let the bad guys know it’s time to scatter).

Hezbollah, on the other hand, is TARGETING CIVILIANS, with no warnings. And with SIXTEEN HUNDRED ATTACKS.

Does Hezbollah somehow get “proportionality” points under the laws of war because they haven’t managed to kill the civilians they are intenationally targeting?
