Israel may win this battle but she will lose the war

Israel may win this battle but in the end she will lose the war.

For, all of the progress made over the past year (in Lebanon) has just been flushed right down the crapper.

Not only has she just created more enmity for herself in the Middle East, but she has also jeopardized AMERICAN efforts in Iraq.

Taking out Hezbollah is one thing, but destroying the civilian infrastructure and massacring scores of civilians - some of whom were in the process of fleeing as they were urged by Israel to do - is quite another.
