#3 Now you're starting to make things up, Zenster!

Anyway, destroying Hizb'allah wasn't the war's aim. The aim was to get back the soldiers Hizb'allah kidnapped; destroying Hizb'allah was to have resulted been taking advantage of unexpected access. Of course, PM Olmert and his people managed to accomplish neither.

#4 Exactly. And they gave Hezb'Allah a big PR boost, though the magnitude of the boost is proportional to the distance from HA. Feel good efforts are now being made to show that things were worse for HA than its media allies revealed. But knowing that HA was hurt does not change the fact that Israel did not achieve its major publicly stated war aims and had its military forces humiliated on the field of battle.

Amen. Oh, and don't forget "liar". He promised the families that the reason they went in was to free the kidnapped soldiers, and that they would NEVER stop until they were returned. Several of the soldiers' family members said he made a solemn vow.

Immoral men, I can learn to stomach for a while. Weak, vascillating men, I can put up with for a few seconds maybe. But I can't abide a bold-faced liar.
