Katyusha rockets are not precise. It's like aiming at the general direction and watching the rocket go as far as possible with ball bearing and nails capped in the head so that when it lands it does maximum human damage to anyone nearby. They also use Iranian and Russian rockets which are much more precise and pretty much on par with what a lot of armies in the middle east have if not better. When was the last time you heard of a terrorist organization using satellite guided missiles? It's not often.
You know I don't know if you know this or not. A lot of the victims in Israel are Arab and Muslim. When those rockets rain down on them, there are lots of children dying. And Israel has sent Jewish soldiers into Lebanon and sacrificed their lives to protect its citizens, regardless of race or religion.
Israel has flown several thousand sorties over Lebanon this time. They attacked roads and airports to prevent new weapons from coming in, hezbollah buildings to stop hezbollah from communicating, and trucks that they worried would carry new bombs. They dropped leaflets all over Southern Beirut asking civilians to leave. Only a couple hundred victims have died from this. And a lot of what's labeled as civilian simply is not. I'm not talking about children but people who keep bombs under their beds.
And you know what else Opi? Israeli soldiers have died from friendly fire. It's bound to happen. And it gets investigated. Much the same way, 4 UN soldiers died. Israel will investigate. Hezbollah has shot up UN personnel but nobody is investigating.
It's funny. How many Iraqi children die from Muslims killing Muslims? How about when Assad murdered 30,000 Syrians himself? But those are not considered atrocities. And when Arabs kill Israelis, it's considered heroic. It's only when Israel tries to fight back and a few civilians die in the process that Arabs consider it an atrocity.

--And again, Hezbollah and Hamas can release the prisoners and stop attacking Israel for no reason other than the fact they want it destroyed and this will all stop.

Unless of course, you consider a mosque (under construction and obviously unoccupied) are precise targetting. Or how about the hospitals under attack? the infrastructure of lebano. How about the targetting of fleeing families (trying to evacuate)? Sorry, it is NOT precise enough. Maybe the missiles the US is sending could help them out a bit.
Civilians are necessary collateral damage? Does that include Israeli civilian lives as well, or just lebanese? Does it include children, babies, fleeing families, foreigners (UN)?
Listen, bombs (whether from Israel or Hizbullah) are indiscriminate. Except, its Israel who are saying they are being "careful" not to target civilians when they obviously are. Again, who is suffering most of the loss here? Let's get this straight, Lebanon DID not start this war. Hizbullah did (and no under governmental orders either).
Propoganda is perpetrated by both sides (IDF and Hizbullah).
Did I address all your points?
