Ugh...I am watching a Hezbollah apologist from America..a Sarah Lawrence professor, lecturing Anderson Cooper about WHY Hezbollah cannot be "defeated"...

He says it is an "integral part" of Lebanon..

He an Anderson were standing on some high building and the city of Beirut was all around them...very beautiful...and the whole time..this prof is going on and on about how, because of the Israelis...the city is in "RUINS"...LOL

He is not all together wrong. Getting rid of Hizb'allah in Lebanon by bombing would be like trying to get rid of the Democratic party in the US by bombing. You could bomb their headquarters. You could take out Dean, Kennedy, the Clintons etc but the party would remain.

He is, however, obfuscating because we all know that it is Hizb'allah's military might that needs to be taken out. If they are simply a political party they have little real power. In fact would probably lose face with the people if they could not "do" anything.
