The US didn't "get it wrong", the morons at CNN got it wrong. Here's
the press release:

"Today Hizballah terrorists operating from Lebanon kidnapped two
Israeli soldiers and launched rocket attacks against civilian targets
in Israel. The United States condemns in the strongest terms this
unprovoked act of terrorism, which was timed to exacerbate already
high tensions in the region and sow further violence. We also hold
Syria and Iran, which have provided long-standing support for
Hizballah, responsible for today's violence. We call for the immediate
and unconditional release of the Israeli soldiers.

Hizballah's terrorist operations threaten Lebanon's security and are
an affront to the sovereignty of the Lebanese Government. Hizballah's
actions are not in the interest of the Lebanese people, whose welfare
should not be held hostage to the interests of the Syrian and Iranian
regimes. We reiterate the international community's insistence that
all parties in the region fulfill their obligations under UN Security
Council resolutions 1559 and 1680, and cease all support for
Hizballah. "

CNN decided to put their own spin on the press release and the liberal
morons bought it, hook, line, and sinker.

Yea... they are that stupid.
