I believe that Israel is going to lose the PR war with f u b a r s like these.

What heppened to that rock solid Mousad inrelligence ? Maybe military intelligence is handled by another department -- who know.

I think I've given up on any good ever coming out of this conflict.
Everything that was done over the past ten years of diplomacy has been just tossed in the trash.
Israel continues to take part in actions that make people fear them and join with radicals. Radicals continue to not be happy until Israel ceases to exist.
I really want to know what these "opportunities" Bush is talking about are.
All I see is "opportunities" to try and preserve what little bit of hope there still is. But I doubt it really matters what we do at this point.
At this point we can assume the aggressions between Israel and its neighbors are escalated to the point they were at before any progress was made. We can assume more war will be fought and that civilians on both sides will continue to be a bulk of the casualties.
Opportunities my @$$.

The neo-cons will christen this tactic "strategic deception."
The Democrat will think that Jews are devious bankers, and if the Terrorists were smart Democrats, they wouldn't fall for this Jewish Banker Deception.

I would have bet a lot of money that Hezbollah would never have stopped firing on Israel.
One of the MSNBC reporters there in the area said there were no air strikes from Israel that he could hear during the night
Wrong JP

http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/meast/...ain/index.html

Israeli airstrikes hit new targets

The Israeli military expressed regret that one of the strikes hit a Lebanese military vehicle outside Tyre, Lebanon.
The Israel Defense Forces said it was unclear how many people were killed. Earlier, a senior Lebanese Interior Ministry official said the airstrike killed an aide to a Lebanese general and wounded three soldiers. The general survived the attack, the official said.
The IDF said it thought the car was carrying a senior Hezbollah militant involved in directing rocket fire on Israel
• Israeli military expresses regret for bombing a car carrying Lebanese soldiers today
And so....the Lebanese military can't give Israel a heads up that they are going to be in the area? Kinda risky, I'd say. All it takes is a phone call. BTW, does the Lebanese military support Hezbolah? Would they be above helping them sneak away? Just wondering. I find that rather strange....that nobody could get the Lebanese military to go near their border and had pretty much turned it over to Hezbollah....and now they show up?????

If Hezbolla are freedom fighters, then why did they attack after Israel left Lebanon? Who's freedom are they fighting for anyways?

Illogical thinkers feel free to chime in on how you hate the Jew Bankers, and how the Jews control Antartica and build UFO's there with swastikas painted on them. Is it me, or has this propaganda from the left gotten a tad little crazy?

What neither you nor I really know is what the command and control structure of is so not sure that they expected to have to inform the Israeli's not to bomb during a "no bombing period".

Where the medics driving those Lebanese ambulances supposed to have "called the Israeli's" to inform them that the uniquely marked ambulances will be driving to pick up injured ?

I think that we established a long time ago that the Lebanese army was in no position to "remove the Hezbollah". They have serious problem becasue they are a non Army of a non country at this time.
