| It was a defeat. Few Israeli goals were attained. The Israeli army was ill prepared for the task at hand. Too many defense cuts over the years and an I`ll defined battle plan. However, if there was one point driven home to hezbollah and Lebanon. Israel did take territory and inflicted 11 to one casualties. Hezbollah will take those casualties and more in the next round. Syria will most likely be drawn in as well. Yes, Israel will be rocketed with great dislocation of its own. Lebanon has yet to be rebuilt and Nasrallah is sleeping with one eye open. The Christian`s want him, the Druze want him, the Israelis want him, the Americans want him and if he draws Syria into a losing war with Israel, Assad will want him. All that being said Olmerts war was a failure. |
