#1 I hope the Lefties are satisfied - they finally have their quagmire in the Middle East.

What? It's not the quagmire they wanted?

Picky little bastards, aren't they.

#2 Of course, Sunni Arabs wouldn't mind overmuch if Hezbollah got its clock cleaned, along with the Syrian Alawite Shiites.

I just wonder if they will consider the opportunity for Sunnis if they were to help in getting rid of Shiite intrigues in the area, replacing them with "calm" Sunni influence.

Egyptians and Jordanians would seem to be naturals as "peacekeepers" in southern Lebanon.
