In contrast to Israel’s statement that they would not have bombed the building in Qana if they knew civilians were there, Hizballah launched about 100 rockets into Israel today, deliberately killing eight civilians.
And they gloat over it.
BEIRUT (Reuters) - Hizbollah guerrillas killed eight people in a rocket barrage on Israel and four Israeli soldiers in clashes in Lebanon on Thursday, the deadliest day of the war for Israel in 23 days of fighting.
In a televised speech, Hizbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said the group would target Tel Aviv if Israel attacked central Beirut. Israeli television quoted a senior military source as saying Israel would destroy Lebanon’s infrastructure if that threat was carried out.
“If you strike Beirut, the Islamic Resistance will strike Tel Aviv and it is able to do so,” Nasrallah said, in the first apparent confirmation that Hizbollah has longer-range missiles capable of hitting the city 130 km (80 miles) from the border.

And you won’t see Israeli rescue workers putting on the sort of ghoulish media show we saw in Qana, either.
