Those who have been so good at fighting for rights for terrorists are the ones to thank for the lack of interest in the US Government to tell Israel to hold back. The Govt. is not interested in capturing terrorists any longer. They are too much of a headache and this is a much better long-term strategy for taking care of (suspected) terrorists.

The open question is when will Israel actively target the Iranians that many believe to be in Lebanon. Pretty hard to deny that you are there with bodies lying around as evidence.

I love the lefts side to this...well Israel has exchanged prisoners before, so why not now????

Hey ever think that if Israel didn't do a prisoner exchange before than they would not have to exchange prisoners now???

Hey Hezbollah, Hey Hamas, Hey Syria, Hey Iran, lets get it straight, its a cease fire, its a disarmament on your side, its a return of our kidnapped soldiers, or its your destruction. See, plain and simple!

O'Reilly had a good statement on his Talking Points Memo last night. He said the world needs to realise that if Hezbillah (and he brought Iraq into this is well) droped their arms, and returned the soldiers and agreed to peace, then the fighting would stop tomorrow. However, if Israel returned their prisoners and threw their weapons into the Mediteranean Sea, there would be a holocaust tomorrow. See the diference? Say what you want about O'Reilly, but, at least on camera, he gets it. He understands what this is all about.
