#1 From a military perspective there can be absolutely no doubt as to the results of Hezballah and Iran's offensive against Israel. It was a defeat. Every part of their war plan except the manipulation of the media failed.

The same and be said of North Vietnam.

#2 I think that in the big picture, the IDF failure to destroy Hizb'Allah, neutralize Syria, and not fight the media war will come back to haunt them, and us. Kofi and Co has, in effect, legitimized Hizb'Allah from a terrorist outfit to a defacto state.

Isreal is now in greater peril.
