I don’t trust Bibi for all the reasons you mention but Hezbollah has been attacking northern Israel so that the residents have been evacuated for almost a year. What should they do to protect their own citizens from people who want all Israelis ( and probably all Jews) dead? Accept the attacks because Israel should not exist and have been persecuting Palestinians since time immemorial? It’s complicated. Why don’t you you see Hezbollah and Hamas as rogue leaders of their countries?

I do take exception to having civilians living above terrorist infrastructure. To me that's really shitty and those civilians are put in grave danger thusly. It sucks.

That's an amazing conclusion to make. A foreign country commits an act of war on another country and you find that ok? Because of the on going conflict in Israel? Did I mention Israel? No. Did I, in anyway, mention admiration for Hamas? No. Was the attack on another sovereign nation an act of war carried out by wholly sanctioned terrorist agency of neighboring state? Were thousands of innocent people injured? Yes. Your point in no way acknowledges the civilians who were harmed. The logical conclusion you seem to be backing is that, even if we don't like the politics of Lebanon, we have the right to react violently in their internal affairs. In Israel's jubilantly doing this? They are no better than Hezbollah and Hamas.
