You can say that again. Their editorial section is now run by folks who want a bi-national state. No Israel or Jordan, just Greater Palestine.
This is the communist line. the sad part is that Ha'Aretz was founded as the Revisionist Zionist paper (Jabotinsky). It has gone from Likud to HADASH.

Lebanon is now occupied by the Syrians, the Palestinians, the Saudis (Hariri is the head of the Lebanese Government and he takes his orders from Saudi Arabia as he is Saudi) and the Iranians (Hezbollah). Similar to Afghanistan, Lebanon was thrown to the wolves after the Marines left with their tail tucked between their legs after the suicide bombings against the Marine barracks.
In fact, suicide bombing became popular after this initial success. I remember that the Democrats in Congress forced on Reagan and the Marines a "you can't shoot first" edict right before they were slaughtered.
Unlike Afghanistan, there is no "Northern Alliance"-type of resistance as nobody wanted to help the Lebanese to defend themselves while the Syrians and their minions were bombarding civilians.
Now the world is paying the price for appeasing evil.
