Subject: RE: BS: Is Hezbollah Winning?
Oh, and by the way, make no bones about it. Israel acted with great restraint. Anyone with a little knowledge knows that Israel has the ability to take out Lebanon and Syria in very short order were it so motivated. Hezbolla's assertion of a great victory over Israel and the "destruction of Israel" are absurd. Their mighty missles weren't as effective as a few motivated suicide bombers. They had virtually no guidance and 90% landed in open spaces. Pathetic. Truth be known, this was an intelligence gathering event for Iran and Israel and Hezbolla was the catspaw.
