UNITED NATIONS — The French-American alliance at the United Nations over a Mideast cease-fire agreement is crumbling, sources tell FOX News.

The French U.N. delegation has joined with Arab nations and is now calling for a complete and immediate Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon as a condition of any cease-fire, the sources said.

Big shake up in the Israeli military.

From what little we know, it looks like they are not "winning" though they are not losing. Its starting to look like one of those wars that could go on forever, and I don't think that's what Israel wants... by a long shot.

They wanted to make a point. But it looks like the major point is being made by the other side. Coupled with the fiasco in Iraq, this will do more to empower the radical elements in the ME than anything short of giving them nukes and ICBMs.
