Actually, few Israeli civilians have died. The majority deaths are soldiers. More Lebanese than Israeli civilians have died.

So what now, Opi? Why do you ignore this, simply because you read about a Mosque falling? Why do you ignore what you read about rockets fired into towns, into civilian dwellings, on the Israeli side of the border?
I don't care about a mosque (under construction) falling, but that Israel govt kept telling the world there was a bunker in there. CNN went in there. No bunker, no bombs.

I don't ignore Israeli civilians. First, their government should really try to get them to evacuate. two, they have bomb shelters. Lebanese civilians do not.

I agree, but you didn't address my point about propaganda - namely, that Hezbollah has attempted to needlessly DRIVE UP the number of Lebanese civilian casualties by placing strategic encampments or targets within civilian locations. This is a de facto use of the 'human shield', and has been the modus operendi of terror groups in the area for decades.

.
During times of wars, both sides purport propoganda. This is the point I am addressing with you. You want me to say any other news agency in the world except for American ones are sources of propoganda. I will disagree with you on that. Actually, I don't need a news media or hizbullah or the IDF to tell me that the actual numbers of Lebanese deaths are not nearly as high as it should.

How about this for propoganda, why do we know the age of the Israeli girl that died today, but we don't know the ages (yes more than 1 child) of the children in Lebanon that died today. Hizbullah propoganda?
