#2 So, the next stop in this twilightzone--Hezbullystan.

And that's bad because?

#3 I'm hoping Olmert is speaking as a "Good Politician," meaning out of both sides of his mouth.

To the UN, Yes, Yes, a cease fire is necessary and desirable.

To the IDF Generals, Kick their asses quickly, permanantly, and kill them all (Or as many as you can) Time is short.

I also recall the dictum, "Better your enemies think you a fool"

#4 Gromgoru, Hezbully being a state within state and occupying the SL was bad enough, if they took over whole Lebanon, you think that wouldn't be badder?

However, analysing latest snippets of info... there is a good chance that may not be in cards. The degrading of HA forward force may have been going on a larger scale than the released figures indicated. Also, it seems that the rats may be leaving the ship, or planning to.

#5 Redneck Jim, I think that even a fool gets lucky once a while. Olmert is just trying to salvage what time he has given the constraints.

In other words, he's a reactive type, rather than proactive.
