This from IDF Chief of Staff today, as Condi arrives in Beirut:

The chief of staff stressed that the IDF can operate for a long time in Lebanon, as long as necessary, and that there is action plan for long months.

"On the strategic level, enough aims have been obtained so that we have reached a very close level to what we set for ourselves. We are continuing to operate until we receive an order from the government to stop," he said.

Halutz said that "we are collecting goals accomplished every day and are harming the other side. Our measurement is not the number of Katyusha rockets – it could be that on the last day of fighting Katyusha rockets will still fall in Israel.

We can't take out the last rockets from southern Lebanon and kill the last of the terrorists, but our central role is to provide a good starting point for the diplomatic process."
