WHOSE WAR?

Turned on the TV3 news to see the caption 'Lebanese War' on the screen. I note that the Vietnamese named the so-called 'Vietnam War', the 'American War'. So why isn't this latest disproportionate use of force by the Israelis called the 'Israeli war' or the 'Israeli-American war' or the 'Hezbollah War' if you want that westernese 'balance'? What price the 'Syrian-Israeli war' or the 'Muslim-Jewish war' or 'The War on Lebanon'?

DJ /Rupture's Gold Teeth Thief mix just doesn't date. For those who want to give shape to their current distress, disaffection, anger and muddled thoughts about the interstate we're in.
