Hi Nadine Carroll; Re: "Small wonder YOU like it. It's just your style."

Years ago I told you that the conservatives were going to dump Israel. You're going to have to dig yourself out of this latest hole by yourself.

By the way, has Hezbollah surrendered yet? Oh, air strikes didn't do the trick? Wonder how that could be, they worked so well at pacifying the locals in Iraq.

My guess is that Israel has a choice. They can quit and tacitly admit both a defeat and that bombing infrastructure and civilians in Lebanon was a policy mistake (basically they turned Lebanon back into prime terrorist territory), or they can call up the reserves, invade most of Lebanon, and then admit, much later, that invading Lebanon was a mistake too.

If you look at the trend in Israel's wars, they just don't keep getting better and better. That's not a good thing for a tiny country with only a few million people, surrounded by enemies, one that relies on the attraction of its peace and prosperity to provide the immigration needed to postpone the demographic catastrophe.
