Kevin,
I’m not arguing that Israel did not bomb Southern Lebanon until the rubble bounced. I’m calling on you to make a persuasive case that their ‘obvious goal’ was to demonstrate a credible military deterrent and show of force. I’m still patiently waiting for the answer. Let me tell you a true story.
When I was at Art School back in the 70’s, I had a phone call from my father who rang to let me know my mother was well enough for me to visit her at Westminster Hospital. Someone, I don’t know his name, had cut her throat while she was sleeping. She was in intensive care for six weeks but thankfully she’s a tough old bird and pulled through.
