Right, OK, I guess if you're complaining about some land about the area of an athletics running track then you are technically correct. I'm not sure that's what people would have understood by tsimonescu's original claim that Israel is occupying parts of Lebanon.

And what exactly is Israel doing there, on that land the size of an athletics track? Something very nefarious?

How much land area, exactly, is another nation allowed to seize by force before it becomes unacceptable to you? It obviously is not that much given the tone of your message.
My answer to that question is context dependent. I don't have a strong objection to Israel occupying 4,000 square metres of Lebanon.

But I think we're established the answer to the question I originally asked. Thanks for participating.
