"Israel responded to an unprovoked attack by Hizbullah, right? Wrong "

I had been thinking Poland, Vietnam - 'unprovoked', you know...


"of all of Israel's wars since 1948, this was the one for which Israel was most prepared ... By 2004, the military campaign scheduled to last about three weeks that we're seeing now had already been blocked out and, in the last year or two, it's been simulated and rehearsed across the board".

Hmmm.... 6 weeks... since Israel has been claiming to 'be in control' of that little village for nearly the last 3 weeks, looks like their schedule is now behind... funny I seem to remember claims that The German army was 'in control of Stalingrad', for weeks before they surrendered to the Russians...

Power-Point Presentation, eh, perhaps they should have sent a copy of the script to Hezbullah.... "as you can clearly see from the animation"... wonder if they used the same template as the 'war for Iraq"?
