A Couple Of Interesting Lebanon Reads
Mahmood isn’t happy with world politics based upon a somewhat disingenuous graphic from the British Independent. In the comments to his post, I found two articles I’ve seen before, but not linked. They may well be worthy of your time: Treppenwitz with an ugly bar fight analogy, and Alan Dershowitz with a discussion of the lose-lose logic Hezbollah has managed to foist upon its enemy.
Update: This Mark Steyn column is also insightful.

Treppenwitz is exactly right. If Israel acted (or is allowed to) as the sailor did we would be rid of hezbollah, because while they are the consumate cowards, it is not in them to admit defeat or that they were wrong.
