And a lot more dead people.
Hence my crack about the Kobayashi Maru.

I think the current action will make Israel more secure and Hezbollah weaker in the near term. My solution might be for Israel to keep going until Hezbollah is destroyed I am not sure how you measure that but I am sure the Israeli militaru could tell me and I trust them. and then turn Lebanon over to the UN with an express warning to Syria that Damascus is the next target unless it keeps its hands off lebanon.
