Killing of civilians is the real reason for escalation of crisis in the Mid-East

I am very troubled to see the double-standard foreign policy of the US toward Israel and other Mid-East countries. When I see that the US is the only country to veto UN resolution to put a stop to Israel's aggression last Saturday, I realize why there are so many animosities against the US in the Middle East.

The reason for the Israel's attack and killing of not one but hundreds of civilians so far since the crises started is not the retaliation of any killing of its own citizens by Hezbollah. Instead, it is reported that it all started because of the kidnapping of two of its soldiers. Another words, Israel has the right to enter another country with tanks and start bombing bridges, oil reserves, and airports, and kill hundreds of civilians because of the death and kidnapping of its soldiers.

There is no justifying for Hezbollah kidnapping, but when the Israeli's air raid on east of Gaza City mistakenly killed three civilians of the same family on July 9th, the US should have intervene and asked Israel for explanations. Instead, the US did not pressure Israel to slow down its aggressive attacks and violence and now we have a full-blown crisis on our hands that can escalate to other region in the Middle East.

What I fail to see is the reason behind using military force in cities and killing civilians by Israel and the US supporting these obvious killings. How can we justify using aircrafts and tanks against civilians? Justifying the killing of innocent civilians for two kidnapped Israeli soldiers is what makes Israel the real terrorist and our government a hypocrite for supporting them.
