A few years ago, the Israeli army fought its way into a fortified bomb-factory in Jenin, a city in the West Bank, ultimately killing several dozen people (mostly armed combatants, according to Human Rights Watch) and leveling several city blocks. Israel was voiciferously condemned by all and sundry for this apalling massacre.
Now the Lebanese government does the exact same thing, to resounding Arab approval.
Things that make you go hmm.
