MAJOR ESCALATION
My worst fears are slowly coming true. What started out as a seemingly simple mission to rescue one caputured soldier has turned into an "act of war" stated by all sides. Israel is using its warplanes, and guerilla warfare is erupting from the Palestian and Lebanon.
I'd like to know your opinions on the "war". Not just updates in the news, but also if you think it was justified for the Israeli military to go into Palestine. Any thoughts? What will the United States do? Do you forsee more countries get involved?

JERUSALEM (CNN) -- Israeli warplanes early Friday bombed southern Beirut, home to the offices of Hezbollah and the group's leader, as the Israeli-Lebanese violence that has killed dozens of Lebanese civilians and 10 Israelis entered its third day.
Lebanese police said the planes hit the airport road, which crosses through the southern district considered a Hezbollah stronghold.
A Lebanese army official said bombs also hit two bridges in the southern suburbs of the capital and a stadium.
Earlier, Israel had dropped leaflets warning residents to stay away from the Hezbollah offices in southern Beirut, where Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah is thought to live. Read the full story here.
