The damage to Lebanon, meanwhile, has been catastrophic. Fayyad said that he had arranged to evacuate his father from the family home in a village near the Israeli border, but he emphasized that Hezbollah’s forces would not leave south Lebanon without a fight. “You must remember that the point of resistance is not to hold ground and face off in front of another position,” Fayyad said. “That is classical warfare, but we are guerrillas. If the Israelis want to take the territory all the way up to the Litani River, do you think they can do it without heavy casualties?” It struck me earlier this week as I watched the news......had Israel and the US approached the Lebanese gov't after UN resolution 1559 had been passed and offered to work with the gov't to disarm Hezbollah to some degree and to convert them to more of a political/social force in Lebanon, this horrible destruction of Lebanon could have been averted. Its also struck me that all Israel has done is made things worse.
