#3 The Lebanese army is much like the Iraqi army of 2005, it is infiltrated with Hezbollah militia just as Iraq's was infiltrated with JAM. The Army is afraid that if they confront Hezbollah, half their soldiers would defect on the spot ... with their vehicles, arms, ammunition, and uniforms.

At this point, Iran pretty much controls Lebanon.

#4 pro-Western government of Prime Minister Fouad Siniora

Another great defeat for Bush. Why does the MSM always stop there? Is it not also a defeat for the UN. And democracy, freedon, free elections, women, France, and the forces of moderation and civilization?

Or is it just a defeat for Bush?
