That's a very one-sided, black&white view on a very complicated affair. No one got "greedy". There were numerous wars all spawned by inability (from both sides) to make any diplomatic advancements. In 1947 an UN proposal was on the table - Israel accepted it, Arabs didn't. As simple as that.

No one jokes about it. Mistakes happen. Sometimes tragic mistakes. Super-powers like USSR and USA made their fair share as well - they both took down a commercial jet full of passengers, while mistaking it for a spy aircraft. In this case it's even more clear - there's a war going on and collateral damage was always a part of war. I still think most civilian casualties are Hezbollah's fault since they're using civilians as human shields.
