Nasrallah didn't think the kidnapping of two Israeli soldiers would lead to war
That's the kind of statement that ought to make Israel and the US feel better about their course of action in prosecuting the GWOT harshly as opposed to taking UN brokered ceasfires. Condi, please take notes... Sometimes war is the answer.
To me that's an invitation to bombard the terrorists whenever they do something. Kidnap a soldier; bomb the hell out of them. Kidnap a journalist; bomb the hell out of them. Kidnap a puppy; bomb the hell out of them. What have I been saying all along? The terrorist swine see negotiations as a victory against a passive, spineless enemy who doesn't have the gumption to see anything related to lethal force through to the end. The only language they understand is violence, and apparently Israel's 34 days of violence made an impression on Nasrallah. Good work Israel. |
