When they all get back to your home,sit down, breathe a sigh of relief, say a prayer of thanks and if you are a drinking man, have a very large cold adult beverage!

Hiya sofa. I've been out tonight and am trying to catch up. When I left it sounded like Olmert was going to pull the troops out of So. Leb. Has that happened? Is he backing off now?

Israel moves to clean out Southern Lebanon. Removing the Hezzies capability to wage war against Israel on the level it has over the past few years.

Israel does this in order to go to war against Iran. Israel attempts to control the enemy to the north so she doesn't have to fight multiple large battles at the same time.

Israel does this in advance of the U.N. Deadlines against Iran.

With Southern Lebanon under control Israel makes a preemptive strike against Iran. This in an attempt to prevent a nuclear strike against their nation which the Israeli Intelligence believes is imminent.

This also goes along with recent meetings (surprise and otherwise) by Tony Blair/Bush and Rice going to Israel.

Southern Lebanon in the meantime is controlled by "world" forces of one kind or another - thus shutting off an invasion by Syria.

This is just my thought on all of this and the way I think this is going.

It is now a race against time.

"The Hizbullah statement rejects any plan that does not call for the immediate withdrawal of IDF troops from Lebanese territory."

It seems the LezHezbo's want total victory. At least one of the two parties involved does....../s

"Israel makes a preemptive strike against Iran."

Going after what targets? Using what weapons? After watching Israel's struggle against hardened bunkers does she have a chance against Iranian bunkers?

Using whatever weapons Israel has to use to take out their nuclear program. This is simple - you use what you have to use. This isn't a game.

Jury's out...there still seems to be action in Lebanon...but it looks like certain units were pulled out. It is surmised they were pulled out because a ceasefire agreement is in the offing.

However, it appears that Lebanon has nixed the US-France proposal. The Hezbos say that they will not stop fighting as long as the Israelis are in Lebanon.

Who knows what is going on behind the scenes. Whatever it is, Olmert looks weak and indecisive.
