22:37 Hezbollah official: Didn`t expect such strong response to capture of IDF soldiers (AP)

HAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaa!!! I guess they thought they could do a swap and all would go on as before? It's a new world, Hezz.

Folks,

I will give you a simple military strategy to help Israel. You will want to look at Google Map or a map of Lebanon that shows satellite imagery or fairly good detail.

Middle south of Lebanon (just west of town of Qaraaoun) there is a fairly sizable lake with a large damn that feeds the Litani River. As I understand Litani River is essential to survival in that part of Lebanon (fresh water, farming, etc.)

If river was flooding it would be a lot harder for Hez troops to retreat. If river was dry it would be difficult for ANYONE to live there and a DMZ would be established.
