HUMBLED OLMERT ACCEPTS CEASE FIRE
Drewsmom:
You put into words what I was thinking. As far as I can see, if fear of WMDs in the hands of Hezbollah is the explanation for Israel's actions, then as I said this is not a ceasefire but would be a complete capitulation because once Hezbollah has the upper hand nothing will stop them. I have a hard time believing that Israel's intelligence in this area would be so poor that they would find out about it only after the war started. But as I said before, acceting the damage done to its economy and reputation is also impossible to understand because it is so totally out of line with Israel's history.

If you put the situation in simple terms, basically Hezbollah does what it says and Israel does not! Unfortunately, I would rather it be the other way around but today it is not!

I have considered the possibility that maybe dangers unknown to the public have stopped Israel from bringing the war to a successful end but if that is the case, then this is not only a ceasefire but also the end of the state of Israel.
It is unconceivable that after destroying half of Lebanon, killing maybe a 1000 Lebanese civilians, getting nearly a150 Israeli military and civilians killed and 1,000,000 living under ground for a month, Israel accepts a ceasefire which results in the status quo ante July 12, 2006. What is all about? Does it make any sense?
I cannot answer in the affirmative, can anybody?
