"GW Bush has setup the UN, France and Lebanon. If the cease fire fails, GW says, "Look, we did all we could to provide the world an opportunity to bring peace to Lebanon, while insuring Israeli security. You failed. Now the IDF/IAF will take care of the local problem, and the USA will take care of Syria and Iran. Let's look at this in another three months or so. The coin is turning."

Yep. Even if that is not exactly the plan, the same scenario and statements will probably happen. And the longer the effort is delayed, the higher the interest on borrowed time will be. Most economic and government leaders are fooling themselves. If efforts to stop asymmetric warfare are delayed too long, it can indeed give birth to high intensity conflict.

Agreed, but the other issue not spoken about here is that it will require a change in the admistration of the Isreali government. I watched in stunned amazement to the tactics used by the current leaders jumping in and out like a hopscoth game and doing it on a limited basis as well. Why in the hell do ou go into a village and then give it back? I would have thought everyone around the world would have learned from the McNamara and LBJ escapade.
I have heard the tone in Neanyahu's interviews to this point but he did not openly criticize the current leaders because he knew the lives of the soldiers depended on a united front. But I did know he will be front and center to raise the necessary questions once a cease fire is in place because he knows it won't be long before someone with some nads will have to let the generals do what they do best and keep the politicians, especially liberal ones, as far away as possible from the real decision making process.

I have come to the conclusion that if the Democrat "Cut & Run" Party ever gets into power again, we are finished as a vaible nation. I will now work feverishly to do all that I can to help destroy the Democrat "Traitor/Treason" Party at the polls. I am hoping many like minded Freepers will do the same.
