Default Israel Agrees to a 24 Hour Cease-Fire...

Breaking News is that Israel has Agreed to a 24 Hour Cease-Fire.

Some Reports are saying it is 48, but the recent News says 24 Hours.

Yep. We're hearing a 48-hour suspension of air strikes, and a 24-hour "coordinating period" with the UN, to allow civilians to leave southern Lebanon if they choose to do so.

Well good. Then we won't have to hear anymore whining about civilians being killed....because they'll be no excuses for them to be there.

It's amazing how easy you can shrug it off.

Default I have a feeling...

This looks like it may be about to get real nasty...

After giving civilians a "window" to leave, the Israeli's will feel much more able to "strike" targets at will.

I believe we are about to see a Major Invasion of Southern Lebanon, and ALL AT WAR in that Region.

The Israeli's are about to SHOW US ALL just how serious they are about getting this DONE ONCE AND FOR ALL!

Watch and Learn political, this is what will become of those who oppose Israel's RIGHT to EXIST in the most emphatic of terms.

The U.S. should also watch and learn how it SHOULD be DONE when facing this type of enemy.

Perhaps we are about to get a Lesson in how to finally get the job done in Iraq!

Regards,
Gaar

It's called War for a reason.

You may be right Gaar, we'll see what Israel does next.

This'll be an interesting opening for Syria as well, if they're going to do anything this would be the time.

If I were a Hezbollah fighter, I would leave along with the civilians. Run up north, and live to fight another day.

This is far from over. Even a "clean" buffer zone isn't going to accomplish what Israel says it wants.

Maybe now we can start paying attention to Iran again.....

Of course ther're only Lebonese and if anyone mentions their deaths you are accused of "whining ".
