As far as I can tell, most of the Christians are more pissed at Israel than at Hezbollah. Certainly on its face, they can blame and hate Israel for what occurred to their country. But deep down, there is a well of hatred and fear regarding Shi'a militancy and the apparent hold they currently have on their country. As I cited in a previous post, the Christians and Sunnis, according to that author, have been reaching out to the Shi'a in hopes of fragmenting the support for Hizbullah. So while, as he asserts, the Christians and Sunnis might be praising Hizbullah with words, they are getting ready to "put a political knife" in their backs at the first opportunity they get. We'll see... I certainly hope the author is correct. I hate the thought of my Brother-in-Law never being able to safely return to his homeland. And I certainly have concern for his parents and family who still live there. But if Hizbullah fires more rockets into Israel, those UN and Lebanese forces are not going to be enough of a shield to protect Hizbullah. Hawk
