The fact that Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Egypt want Hezbollah crushed didn't seem to make it into this analysis. Gee, maybe the SF Chronicle should finance a trip by Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton to broker a peace with Hezbollah, Syria and Iran. As I remember those two dimwits vision of the mideast came out just as they expected it to. Save me from SF morons.
Exactly. Bush's policies/plan, along with the actions being taken by Israel, are rapidly putting the noose around Syria and Iran's necks. He has manuevered the situation where it is clear that the terrorists are linked to Iran and/or Syria; with that, we now have states to retaliate against if terrorists act on our soil.
