Where do I begin?

U.N. workers killed in southern Lebanon. Israel announces intentions to establish a presence in Lebanon. Hundreds of civilians dead and one-third of them are children. Israel continues to claim their rights and, when all else fails, brings up the Holocaust. The Decider expresses his unwavering support for Israel. The war may spread throughout the region. The U.S. government intends to remake the Middle East--without any democratically elected Islamic governments, I suppose.

We have to speak out and fight for what is right. But how? Where do we begin?

As Salaamu Alaikum Sis: I think we can begin by praying for the innocent victims of both of those governments over there. There are innocents on both sides of the border. May Allah help us all/Ameen.
