Voted : Israeli army
Ofcourse Israel killed more civilians however to make the Israeli army morally equivalent with Hezbollah is nonsense.Israel does not intentionaly target civilians like Hezbollah does and that's what makes them morally superior.Intent matters, it is what seperates murderers from those who kill accidentally.
Who killed more children in World War 2? Japan or America? The victor is almost always going to kill more civilians. There isn't a moral equivalence here.
I am constantly amazed by humans' ability to rationalize pretty much anything.
More civilians were killed in Afghanistan by Allied forces than by Al Queda's 9/11 attacks. I guess Al Queda has the moral high ground.
...And if Hezbollah had possession of more destructive weapons?
Voted : Israeli army
The Israeli Army killed more civilians than Hezbollah for a couple of reasons. First, they carried out their attacks against weapons emplacements by Hezbollah within civilian populations, and second, the Israeli weapons and delivery systems were just better than Hezbollah's. In most wars (WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Gulf War I, Gulf War II and others), the winning side kills more civilians than the losers. It's ugly, painful, and just evil, but war is hell and killing people is part of that hell.
^Vietnam doesn't really work in this analogy. They were the victors and had the majority civilians killed.
in response to ClosetIguana: last I checked, civilians in Afganistan doesn't have anything to do with Al Qaeda or 9/11. justifying killing civilans in Afganistan because of Osama is like justifying 9/11 because America gave weapons to Israel. comeon now, why do you "hate our freedom"?

Korea had no victor because technically the war hasn't "ended", and again, mostly Korean civilans died.
{Ofcourse Israel killed more civilians however to make the Israeli army morally equivalent with Hezbollah is nonsense... by Corrupt on Fri Aug 25, 06 10:22am} You're right. Israel is WORSE by a long way.
{In most wars (WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Gulf War I, Gulf War II and others), the winning side kills more civilians than the losers. by margaret123 on Fri Aug 25, 06 10:38am} Can you back that claim with any cited evidence?
interesting. Hitler was better armed in Czechoslovakia, france, and other allied countries in europe. does that make it okay for the more heavily armed nations to ride roughshod over the weak ones? should we just accept that as how the world works? in that case why the heck did US interfere with Hitler's plans?

LCD Civilians never have "anything to do" with why wars start.
Hezbollah fired nearly 4000 rockets indiscriminately into Israeli cities and civilian neighborhoods. Why were these rockets packed with thousands of steel ball-bearings? Was it so the Israeli children could have marbles to play with?
"..why the heck did US interfere with Hitler's plans?" by LCD Actually, the US avoided sending its military forces to fight in WWII (1939-1945) Europe for two full years. Their armed forces entered Europe in late 1941-early 1942. Why you have no criticsim of the US forces ignoring the defending of the death and destruction of so many innocent people for so long?

I didn't know there was a competition. But when it comes down to it, Hezbollah is responsible for all the civilian deaths. All the blood is on the hands of Hezbollah's foolish behavior.
"But when it comes down to it, Hezbollah is responsible for all the civilian deaths. All the blood is on the hands of Hezbollah's foolish behavior." Hezbollah may have started this conflict, but it hardly has all the blood on its hands. Israel could have been and should have been more cautious of civilian casualties. That said, Hezbollah's tactics weren't exactly the most civilian-friendly either.
Or an even better question, who initiated the conflict?
^The Zionists who stole the Palestinian's land back in the 20th Century.
" The Zionists who stole the Palestinian's land back in the 20th Century. " The Zionists began DEFENDING themselves about 10 years after the Arabs started initiating attacks on Jewish targets (1920).

LCD Do you think the fact that hezbollah hides amongst civilians should be taken into consideration? Yes or No?
Sorry Cranky, but there was no stolen land.

Voted : Hezbollah
Hezbolly and his terrorist group have and even killed his own civilians too. He want to take over the country of Israel.
Hezbollah is not officially listed as a terrorist organisation except by six countries around the UK, Israel, USA axis
Israeli military by a long way killed far more civilians, and the vote rigging fool who just bumped the votes isn't going to convince anyone of his lies.
Isn't it sad how some zionists try to rig the ballots by obviously vote stuffing
