re: You understand how they are playing it....first they are only going into Lebanon to find the two soldiers. When the US does not object, they start bombing. Still no US objection, they bomb even more. Still no objection.......then they send in a couple of platoons of soldiers. When the US still doesn not react, they do a full fledged invasion. The Israelis think Americans are stupid and Bush et al reaffirms that belief. You may be right... but I think it was planned from the start. Of course, but they weren't sure how far they could get.

but I think it was planned from the start. I think the person responsible for this part of the war is Joshua Bolten , White House Chief of Staff. Cheney had the administration packed with neocons, with the former Chief of Staff Andrew Card appointed as gatekeeper, so that only neocons gave the final word of advice to clueless george. Finally the republican congress had a mini-rebellion and Bolten got control of that gate. Bolten, and to some extent Condi Rice, have been resisting the stupider acts of the neocons. The neocons turned to their compatriots in Israel to create a situation that can't be ignored, all the while sending their team of idiots to call for America to join an attack on Syria and Iran. So, you see, it is a response to Bolten's restraint. TP
