It's the same mentality that some hold
Iraq had it coming.
Lebanon had it coming.
Whether they were breaching the no-fly zone or hiding non-existent WMD's under the bed, they had it coming.
Whether they captured those Israeli soldiers as part of their on-going skirmishes, it was STILL the straw that broke the camel's back.
They "had it coming.".
Therefore to say that Israel didn't have the right to destroy parts of Lebanon and throw in even more horrific damage because they CAN, why even bother denouncing it or pointing it out?
What are you "with the terrorists?" now?
Man, you better get with the program!
