This war that Israel is in is a teaching lesson to the rest of the world that not only civilization is in a new world war but one in which it must win. Israel is showing that jihadi terrorism and terrorists must be stood up to and soundly defeated. Even the Lebanesse have had enough of Hezbollah, which under the rule of Syria has ruined that country and are supportive of Israel's action to rid southern Lebanon of Hezbollah.
