As yo your last sentence, purely confected as a sentiment. The numbers may be true. The consequences of war. Anti-Israeli is your obvious stance.
Not anti anyone. I just look at the actions of countries and judge accordingly. You can choose to support Israel like others support a football team, that's not my style, I'm more objective.

No one is arguing against Israel's right to defend itself; simply that some of its actions in Lebanon eg killing over 300 people last night for example is disproportionate. And it's daft to ignore the fact that there is a strong incentive for Netanyahu to keep the wars going so as to delay the election given that a loss will see him jailed.

None of this is made up - have a view of The Newsagents for example.
