Before the attack, Hezbollah had sent diversionary attacks to military posts in border villages, blatantly suggesting that it was a planned attack. Hezbollah were the only belligerents here.

I rather be ignorant as you say, but "thanks" to the profit USA gunmakers are making selling assault weapons to the drug dealing mafia
I can tell you this out of personal experience, when the army is going into an area where they expect to clash with well equipped enemies (a bunch of kids with stick and stones is not what I mean) they go in two or three non-armored vehicles with 4-6 soldiers in the back (plus the driver and anyone besides him). If they sent two soldiers in one vehicle to a zone where they knew they would find hezbollah guerrillas, let me tell you they were sent there to be killed and/or captured to have an excuse to attack lebanon, no if, ands or buts.

There's no backtracking. Gaza hasn't been reoccupied and the PNA and the police haven't been disbanded. It's simply been stalled. To conclude that they are directly disobeying UN resolutions is a stretch based on purely subjective interpretation.

Your logic makes no sense, if stalling is not disobeying Nazi germany could simply had waved their right to stall the retirement from occupied europe before wwII.

That's a very poor excuse to call for the destruction of Israel...

The actual comment was something closer to "the occupation regime over Jerusalem should vanish from the page of time" or simply "end that regime" without notion of using military intervention or military threat toward the state / people of Israel

I'm not denying Israel should get no blame whatsoever but to claim that Israel are somehow equivalently at fault is just BS. At the end of the day, Iran is one being belligerent towards Israel.

Let me see, an worldwide economic crisis, an electorate weary from the war, a democrat president, a group of naval vessels placed within range from the enemy without the proper defensive measures, hmmm,
