#1 Do not repeat IDF mistakes. Change tactics. Gas their ass. Burn them out. Don't let them pick you off. Use artillery. Just obliterate the entire area they are dug into.

#7 The Lebanese Army needs to be supplied with napalm cannisters and cluster munitions. That'll put a stop to this "running from place to place". Losing a leg to a cluster munition will stop it right now! Use tear gas on the mosque, then fire a willie pete round. It might do some damage to the mosque, but the fighters won't bother you any more. The only way to fight terrorists is wide-open, no-holds-barred militarily-inflicted brutality. It worked against the Germans and the Japanese, against the Koreans and Chinese, and against the Viet Cong. It's only the lawyers and the dummycritters that are keeping us from using these tactics elsewhere. Anything less than total force is a waste of time, energy, and soldiers' lives.

Word, Old Patriot. Anything less is self-defeating.
