The nation of Israel is going berserk, ladies and gentlemen.

I feel like I'm living in the '70s again.

And they're going after Lebanon, a nation that (as anyone with any interest in history, or even the news, knows) has as much control over random terrorist groups operating inside its borders (or anything else, for that matter) as a goldfish would have over a river. Half the nation is (and has been) occupied, if not outright ruled, by Syria for decades, and oh, by the way, Israel itself only recently stopped occupying southern Lebanon back in 2000.

I don't have any sympathy for Hamas and Hezbollah, either (they were asking to get their asses kicked, doing what they did), but it seems like the Israeli government is in the middle of some sort of "postal" episode, and we may end up seeing a full-scale war between Israel and several other Middle Eastern nations by the time everything is finished.
