I don't know...I have been out of the loop..
BUT, my opinion is this:
Israel hasn't had the world's sympathy as much as it does NOW...so, I think they are in the BEST position to go ahead and take Hezbollah on...with the LEAST amount of backlash from the Arab world..
SO..they better take advantage of it...if Olmert backs OFF, not only will he have missed this chance..but a LOT of his own citizens will be against him.
You're right. This is THE TIME to do it.
OHHHH..one of my FAVORITES...Tony Blankley is on John Gibson..
