Deadly mistakes

Comments

The Hezbullah leader, Nasrallah, strike me as much more competent leader than the Syrian president. However he is too failing to read the situation correctly. Simply put he is confusing Israel failure to achieve victory in the war as Hezbullah victory.

I hope that I’m wrong, and that his refusal to disarm and to withdrawal is only negotiation tactic . However I have the feeling that he read the Israeli motivation for another round and his organization ability Incorrectly. The Hezbullah made major mistake by changing from guerilla organization to an organized military organization. Therefore it cannot really win, nor to cause real strategic risk to Israel all it can hope is to be able to keep launching rockets as a measure of achievement.

Not that I mind that the Hezbullah will be defeated, on the contrary I will love to see it happen. But such things do not come without heavy price and I would hope that the ceasefire, despite all its weaknesses, will work to achieve better results for Israel and Lebanon.

(08-16) 04:00 PDT Beirut — Hezbollah refused to disarm and withdraw its fighters from the battle-scarred hills along the border with Israel Tuesday, threatening to delay deployment of the Lebanese army and endangering a fragile cease-fire.

The makings of a compromise, however, emerged from all-day meetings in Beirut, according to senior officials involved in the negotiations, and Prime Minister Fuad Saniora scheduled a Cabinet session today for what he hoped would be formal approval of the deal. Hezbollah implied it would be willing to pull back its fighters and weapons in exchange for a promise from the Lebanese army not to probe too carefully for underground bunkers and weapons caches, the officials said.
