The death toll in Lebanon and Israel, which exceeds 250 in the past week, is a grim reminder that the sectarian violence in Baghdad 500 miles to the east is but one of many hotspots in a region that has been plagued by violence for more than 1,000 years.

But this guy thinks Bush should have it all solved in four years, eh?

And I guess he fails to notice how almost all the Arab states have told the Palis and Hizbollah to go pound sand - that alone is a sea change in Middle East politics.

If our media were impartial, that whould be the headline but it isn't even in the story.

Obviously, this is *Bush's Fault.* The left, uniformally, does not believe that there is anything worth sacrificing for, worth dying for. What the author of this pathetic piece of tripe fails to acknowledge is that those dying in Lebanon are mostly bad guys.
