And yet the Republicans are still pushing the plate of crow away ... but they are admitting they should be at the table. That's progress. Especially with people like George Will and that Nat'l Review editor speaking out; as well as most every general. So Pentagon, Israel, if you're listening (which you rarely do) here's the secret: ground troops win wars, air power doesn't. Oh, and if you really want to win, you have to fight the PR war. If you want to know how, ask Nasrallah; he couldn't be doing a better job. Hezbollah is on the scene as we speak handing out US$12,000 to every person and rebuliding infrastructure -- so who do you think the Lebanese are going to back in the next election? The terrorists know that to win they must win the heart and minds. To do that, they must position themselves as social service organizations and goad the US and Israel into protracted battles that make them look weak and Hezbollah strong.
