The West's problem's are not with the pols or the press, but with our citizens.

Exactly. We don't want to know the truth because that would require some sacrifice. So fairy tails are much easier to handle. But that only works so long,

When this is all over, we should not worry about the survival of Israel . For weeks, pundits have been lecturing how canny and adept Hezbollah has proved — and how a clumsy Israel could only respond by destroying Lebanon 's infrastructure. Yet, when the dust settles, the world will learn that Lebanon outside Hezbollah's domain is not destroyed. And, one hopes, those who have suffered in the Hezbollah-controlled south will reexamine their support for a terrorist organization that has brought them — and itself — to near ruin.

Instead far more worrisome is the moral crisis in the West itself. If so many of its politicians, intellectuals and media will not or cannot fathom moral differences in this war, they will hardly be able to see them anywhere else. -Victor Davis Hanson

I've been wondering if Lebanese Shia won't start a Resistance against Hezbollahs setting up missile launchers in their back yards. They probably didn't like dying when the Israelis struck these military targets.

And they're so damn fuzzy too!
