CAIR and anti Semite conspiracy loons- perfect together.
Too bad the politicians didn't listen to the generals.
Of course they planned it in advance. Just like we have plans to attack China, NoKo, and Iran. All competent militaries have pre-planned against thier enemies, especially ones right across the border.
Profs. Stephan Walt and John Mearsheimer also claim that Israel had planned the war in Lebanon in advanced and used the kidnapping of its soldiers as a pretext to launch the operation
Yes. And?
Isn't that what military planners do? Or do they stand around playing pocket pool until the balloon goes up? Something like that.
Academics still think you can plan a war in detail then wait for an excuse to launch it, they haven't
gotten around to reading Boyd yet, the Israelis have.
I hope that our intelligence folks are inside the CAIR organization. These are some radical Mooselimbs who some regard as a charitable organization. They funnel more cash to the Hezzies than we can count. They want to rule this nation. ANY means to prevent this must be utilized.
Scholars? I thought you had to talk out of your mouth, not out your a$$hole, to be called that.
Did England have a war plan for Germany before Hitler invaded Poland? Yes. Did the U.S. have a war plan for Japan before Pearl Harbor? Yes. Are these two professors idiots? Yes.
There's just not enough worthwhile liberal causes for them to work on. These overschooled, undereducated, overpaid "scholars" are a joke.

I knew this, most of us scholars did.
On Planet Whackademia, where retards are tenured professors.
Of course they planned it in advance, it is called war contingency planning, and all countries do it, or at least those with a modicum of sense.
The problem is that old Olmert didn't let the military go with the plan, he micromanaged the heck out of it and fried it and lost the battle for Israel.
It hasn't lost the war yet, but hopefully Israel will come to her senses and drop the twit.
BADLY planned!
So in typical liberal double-speak anyone & anything can be blamed if they DONT have a plan (incompetent)!! and they CAN be blamed too if they DO (those wicked people planned for a war all along eh!).
Juan Cole has spread the same smear.
These are not academics if they are saying this cr*p.
They are radicals with tenure.
Time to abolish tenure IMHO.
Some "brilliant" scholars we've got there. You mean to tell me the military plans ahead for possible action against a terrorist state living next door? Unbelievable - conspiracy! Proven to be a conspiracy! by the fact they acted on it when an act of war was committed against them!
If it was planned months ahead, it was pretty poor planning.
"He further claimed that by backing Israel, the US has weakened its position in dealing with other regional challenges - terror, Iraq and Iran."
I could not read any further.
Preposterous statements do not deserve any readers attention.
