It's not the response, but the degree of response. If you have a doctor who cures patients, he's a good doctor. If he kills the patient and then declares the disease eliminated, he's a quack.
I'm not saying Israel has gone too far - it's really too soon for that sort of statement to be made objectively. But I am concerned there is a fine line to tread between self-defense and a full-out offensive.

If it stops there, at taking out Hezbollah with minimal losses to the whole of Lebanon, then great!
