Why are the Israelis bombing strategic targets north of Beirut and in the Bekaa Valley. If your guess isn't on the Poll list please give an essay answer. I just want ideas and opinions:

They want to cut off Hezbollah's supply chain from Syria   15 votes - 19 %
They want to cut off Hezbollah's exit rout from the south   3 votes - 3 %
They want to accomplish both because they intend to keep the invasion up until all of S. Lebanon is sterilized of Hezbollah   22 votes - 28 %
They want to pull Syria into a greater war   11 votes - 14 %
They see Hezbollah's actions as an opening volley in an Iranian/Syrian masterplan that will culminate in a full shooting war for the lasting destruction of Israel that will embroil the entire Muslim world   4 votes - 5 %
They believe that the end time prophecy is upon them and that victory over their enemies is assured   5 votes - 6 %
All of the above   16 votes - 21 %
