Amit Ghate finds an excellent article showing that Hezbollah’s attack was precisely because of Israel’s record of appeasement. Read this straight from the horse's mouth! Let’s hope Israel doesn’t hold back this time … or Bush & Condi don’t hold them back.
Perhaps a little review of history is in order. Reagan stopped Israel from finishing off Arafat in Lebanon in the 1980s. Further appeasement by subsequent administrations rewarded Arafat with wealth and power, and control of a large part of the West Bank. This showed that terrorism works. We got much more of it.
Will history repeat itself? Will Bush stop Israel from finishing off Nasrallah and making him a hero? Will Iran see the West as paper tigers? Stay tuned …
