If Israel (or the U.S.) backs down now then Iran has won.

The Soviets won in Vietnam, lost in Afghanistan, and conceeded the board in 1990.
In my opinion, Iran wins when they have nuclear weapons, and when we agree to any price for oil they choose to charge, including converting to Islam.
My response to that scenario would be "Not over my cold, dead planet."

Olmert is already "backing down". Prior to today, they were insisting that hezbollah be disarmed and they be removed from the southern Lebanon border, and their 2 troops be released in order to stop the Israeli assault.
As of this morning, according to CNN and Fox, Israel sent conditions to the Lebanese government via Italy, and the Israeli conditions to stop the assault is release the 2 kidnapped troops, and hezbollah must be removed from the southern Lebanese border.
No more demand that UN 1559 be carried out.
