My whole point that began our debate was a response to TheYellowDog, who asserted that if Israel were to lose, Hezbollah would attack the West. I replied that Hezbollah cannot destroy Israel, and will never be able to. I even said that Hezbollah would never be able to invade and secure any portion of Israeli territory.
The rocket attacks are something else entirely, they are terrorist attacks against the civilian population of Israel, but they do not threaten the existence of Israel. They're just a nuisance.
A nuisance that should be adressed ! I'm not calling for inaction here. But you have to put the rocket attacks in perspective (the same applies to 9/11, and to any terrorist attack).
And, BTW, remember that Hezbollah was not raining down its rockets on Israel before the Israeli bombing campaign began... If Israel had used an aerial assault as a last resort solution to the kidnapping crisis, and tried diplomacy first (and diplomacy does not mean appeasement!), things would have, without a doubt, worked out better.
But no, Israel had to overreact and go into BLOW SHIT UP mode, so Hezbollah responded with rockets (I'm not justifying their terrorist actions, just showing the logical, and predictable, course of events), and now solutions are hard to come by.
