Well, we could find a method of turning Hamaas against Hesbollah and let them "go at it." Then, with what remains, we go in and mop up.
On a serious note: So the world hates us, big deal. We never entered a popularity contest. Every country does what it believes is in its best interest. If we ruffled some feathers, tough!
The radical Islamists hate damn near everyone and the US and Israel are on the top of the list...ever stop to think why? Both countries are very similar in government (a democratic form) and are allies (with the occasional spying on each other - never said we were perfect). Of course, the Muslims think the lands inhabited by the Jews really belong to Islam (promised by Muhammed) as do the Jews (promised to them by God).
How do we settle all this? Well, as I write this, Israel may be making the beginning steps - Beruit is becoming a pile of rubble and the ground offensive is beginning. Iran will channel more weapons to Hesbollah thru Syria, and the USA will covertly ship BIGGER weapons to Israel.
Has anyone noticed how Leabanon has become the battleground for all these folks? When in doubt, bomb/occupy Lebanon (pick one, or both).
The USA will not apologize for past mistakes, nor will it ever pay reparations - we will continue to TRY to be the policemen of the world. You better hope we do a good job, 'cause if we don't, Canada will be in the crosshairs of the next terrorist threat.
So quit yer bitchin' and cut us some slack - give some constructive help, and quit whining about all the ways we have screwed up. We are doing the best we can down here. Just be glad that Canada and the USA are sharing a border, and not Canada and Pakistan, Afghanistan, or some other "...stan."
