...then neither Israel nor Hezbollah ever lost 20,000 troops in a single day.

Neither Israel nor Hezbollah ever had 25,000 people killed in a single air raid.

Neither Israel nor Hezbollah ever expended a million troops to hold a city.

Every single death is a real human tragedy in this pissy, crappy little war.

But don't start pretending that it's anything other than a pissy, crappy little war.

And when you've won (or lost), what exactly is it you've won (or lost)?

A few square miles of fuck-all, that's what.

Idiots, the lot of you.

"So don't pay attention to the approval ratings that say 68% of Americans disapprove of the job this man is doing. I ask you this, does that not also logically mean that 68% approve of the job he's not doing? Think about it. I haven't."
