jerusalem - Israeli commentators are divided on whether Israel is being too harsh or not harsh enough in its attacks on Hezbollah in Lebanon.

The Jerusalem Post argues that it was 'high time' to take action against Hezbollah, citing a history of aggression and rocket attacks on Israeli cities. The paper claims that Israel's only option is to fight to survive, regardless of international criticism.

Meanwhile, users on the Israeli section of Reddit overwhelmingly support the airstrikes on Hezbollah, citing the ongoing rocket attacks on Israel since October last year. There is empathy for Lebanese civilians caught in the crossfire, with hopes that they will eventually rid themselves of Hezbollah and Iranian influence.

Yedioth Ahronoth criticizes the current attacks for being only 'symbolic' and allowing Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah to dictate the escalation of the conflict. The paper emphasizes the need to respond decisively to threats.

Haaretz, on the other hand, criticizes Israel for being too harsh. Some commentators even label the airstrikes as 'state terrorism' and question the strategic efficacy of Israel's military actions.

Michael Ignatius of The Washington Post warns that Israel must not repeat past mistakes, such as the 1982 invasion of Lebanon. Ignatius cautions against underestimating the potential consequences of war and highlights the unintended consequences that led to the rise of Hezbollah.

According to Lebanese publicist Kassem Kassir, Hezbollah's strategy may be to prolong the conflict and wear down Israel, rather than seeking a quick victory. The organization's ties to Iran further complicate the dynamics of the situation.
