We justify the attacks by making it clear that in a war one kills the enemy. What exactly is there to "negotiate" with the Hezbollah? A Lebanese Shiite militia thinks it has a right to destroy the Jewish nation so that is something we should negotiate? After the 2006 war against Hamas the UN authorized a border commission to define and delineate once and for all the international border between Lebanon and Israel. Israel accepted, totally and without qualification the findings of that commission. Yet the Hezbollah, which is NOT the government of Lebanon, doesn't. What is there to negotiate? Furthermore I think your claim that Israel should avoid killing the Hezbollah leaders disingenuous at best, out of courtesy I don't use a stronger word. In what world do you not attack and if possible kill the commanders of an entity making war on you? Regarding Gaza, I certainly wish that Hamas had not turned Gaza into an fortified city making the Maginot Line look amateurish, but they did. Moreover, if the Hamas had not brutally attacked Israel, destroyed entire communities, murdered over a thousand citizens (incl. 400 at a music festival), kidnapped over 250 people of which over 100 are still hostages, Israel wouldn't be bombing and bulldozing ANYTHING in Gaza. Finally, you parallel of Jewish settler children being indoctrinated just like Hezbollah children is absurd, mendacious, and fantastical.
