Look for the war to start back up in round two. As soon as Israel sees the supply trucks coming from Syria into Lebanon, the gloves come off. You will also see planned assassinations and bombings of public and government Lebanese officials who didn't tow the line with Hizbollah. Nasrallah will also become a Weight Watchers spokesman and film a commercial dressed in yellow leotards while doing jumping jacks on a painted Israeli flag. The expedited shipment of those friendly "whack a mole cluster bomblets" from the U.S., should be in use very, very soon.
I generally resist the urge to argue over opinions about middle eastern conflicts, but, I need to correct one piece of serious misinformation you state above: The Hiroshima bomb, "Little Boy," yielded approximately 15 Kilotons of TNT (15,000 X 2,000 lbs. = 30 million lbs.). Three times this amount would be 90 million lbs of TNT. The largest conventional weapon in the U.S. military arsenal is the "daisy cutter," which is a 15,000 lb. bomb, that can only be delivered from the back of a military transport plane, because it's too heavy to sit on any assault aircraft bomb rack. What this means, is that for your assertion about the amount of munitions used by Israel during the 1982 Beirut war to be true, Israel would have had to drop the equivalent of 6,000 daisy cutters on Beirut. Had such an attack happened, there would have been no Beirut. The estimated casualties in the Beirut War were around 9,000. In contrast, approximately 70,000 Japanese died as a direct result of the initial Hiroshima blast wave and another 130,000 from radiation poisoning. Thus, if your assertion were correct, we could reasonably have expected at least 210,000 immediate and 600,000 total deaths to Lebanese alone, during the 1982 War with Israel. That didn't happen, and your asserting this magnitude of destruction is dangerously incorrect, because it serves to discount the actual destructive capability of a nuclear detonation. One Trident II missile, launched from an Ohio-class U.S. submarine, carries eight W88 MIRV warheads with a yield of 3,800 kilotons. That is the equivalent of over 250 Hiroshima bombs. With respect to your beliefs about who is right or wrong in the current confrontations between Arab and Israeli, you are entitled to your opinion. But, when you spread misinformation about the sort of war that could be unleased by an sufficiently annoyed United States government, you are disserving yourself and your own people. Because, if the average Israeli politician were to believe that a present day nuclear strike would be only 1/3rd of the destructive capacity of all the military ordinance used by Israel during the 1982 siege of Beirut, you might find that your misinformation will have facilitated the complete and total incineration of Lebanon. Make no mistake about it -- nothing that you (or I, or anyone else) can possibly imagine, is anything like the death and destructive capacity of a modern nuclear weapon. If the U.S. or Israel actually determines that it is necessary to attack the Arab world with nuclear weapons, there will be no more Arab world to respond to the attack. No one should misunderstand this fact and what it would mean -- no one.
"The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap ... And behold at eveningtide trouble; and before the morning he is not. This is the portion of them that spoil us, and the lot of them that rob us." Isaiah 17:1,14
