Newsweek: Israel's surprisingly high-tech foe. Inside the new Hizbullah.

#3  I believe Olmert is fighting THIS war the way Al Gore would have "fought" alQueda after 9/11 if HE had been President. And Olmert is just as wrong now, as Gore would have been then.

Bush did it right in Afghanistan...and took the Taliban down hard and quick. Yes, the place is still screwed up. But alQueda no longer has access to an entire nation-state with full freedom of movement. Exactly what Hezbullah now enjoys in Lebanon.

I think Olmert's government will fall soon after hostilities end anyway. It's a shame he get a chance to screw this up first.

#2  Israel needs to get tough. Send in overhwhelming numbers of troops and open up the rules of engagement. Does Israel not realize this is a war it must win for its national survival? "Set phasers on kill" and don't come back until the job is complete.
