Netanyahu is just beaming with glee over the successful Israeli operation.... There were many failures in the management of the Lebanon offensive according to Israeli opposition leader and head of the Likud Party, Benjamin Netanyahu. Following Prime Minister Ehud Olmert’s first speech to the Israeli parliament since the early days of the offensive, Mr Netanyahu criticised the war for its many failures. “It must be said, honestly, there were many failures, failures in identifying the threat, failures in preparing to meet the threat, failures in the management of the war, failures in the management of the home front,” he said. “Without doubt we shall need later on to learn the lessons and fix the mistakes.” Olmert acknowledged there were “deficiencies” in the way the war was conducted with scores of soldiers and civilians killed in the 34 days of fighting. “We will have to review ourselves in all the battles,” he said. “We won’t sweep things under the carpet.” Anticipating that another war with Hezbollah may come in the future, he said Israel will learn the lessons of this war and “do better”. eecho.ie
