We? We!? I thought this was a war between Israel and Hezbollah, and poor Lebanon was an innocent victim.

More evidence that anyone who fell for this argument was had.

"but also the plans for the state's partition."

Oh, so now it's Lebanon and Israel! An overt admission that Lebanon and Hezbollah are one and the same!

Maybe Israel should declare war on Lebanon. After all Lebanon attacked them and kidnapped a couple of Israeli soldiers.

Is there a soul left on this planet who thinks Israel won this?

ElMort! One person.

This ceasefire is going to turn out to be one of the single worst military blunders of the last thirty years.

So the President of Lebanon admits that Hezbollah was an agent of the Lebanese govt? And now we have the Lebanese Army in charge of maintaining peace and policing Hezbollah? Wonder what Kofi has to say about this.

Round 2 should commence shortly but not before Israel gets it's new leadership in place and gets it's readiness back up to snuff.

There are no civilians in Lebanon...and the Christians...in government... aren't.

Lahoud is a Maronite Christian. What does that have to do with his statement?

The worst military blunder in thirty years?

Heck no.......it's the worst in the history of earth.

Why? Because we're alive and wrapped in the blunder right now!

Who cares if Napoleon blundered at Waterloo, or Pickett blundered with his charge? Doesn't change my world at this precise moment in time.

I care that the blundering ElMort, his cabinet, his pacifism, his leftism, the Arab Street in our State Deptartment, any of our complicit gullible leaders, and political correctness all around has put me and mine in danger.

However, rest assured that I and mine are ready with our blunderbusses, LOL.

They were making strafing runs, firing missiles in the Bekkah Valley today. It's not over yet.

I keep hearing about the good people of Lebanon caught in the middle. Bunk. They are a swarmy cowardly lying pathetic people and they deserve their circumstance.
