| Israel did not win the war, but it didn`t lose either. Hizbollah has been pushed back from Israel`s border all the way past the Litani river. That was a huge success. And now there are over 10,000 UN troops in southern Lebanon, which was something Hizbollah did not want and cannot stand. (Not that UN troops are effective, but they`re nonetheless an irritant to Nasrallah.) Furthermore, Nasrallah has very little freedom of movement. He has made just a handful of public appearances since the war and is moved to a new hideout each night. He himself has no idea where his next safe house will be. All that said, I think Olmert and Perez should resign. If only Sharon would miraculously wake up from his coma and come back to lead Israel!!! |
