Now I'm just hoping we can keep that f**king UN cease fire team "the Hell outta here".
On to Damascus......................

Thought Bush already declared "Mission Accomplished!" a couple years ago.
Not a chance Israel/US are marching to Damascus. None. Compared to the Syrians, the Lebanese and Palestinians are soft targets.
Sad the US has unwisely used up all our political capital and we have no credibility left not only in the UN but throughout Europe and especially the moderates in the Middle East. We're seeing Bush now taking a far more conciliatory approach evidence by his remarks yesterday that the UN Sec Concil has, "all the time they need."
I fell for the captured (not kidnapped) Israeli soldier and it's wrong that he's been used as a negotiating tool. But of course, the Israelis invite this tactic as witnessed by their willingness to exchange prisoners a couple years ago. Bad decision. Bad precedent.
So, first it's the Palestinians who get blamed for all of Israel's problems. Wait, let's toss in Lebanon. Don't forget Syria! And of course, we cannot leave out the Iranians!
You're hoping violence will end the conflict and Palestinians will become formal indentured servants of Israel. It's too bad you cannot take off your "lets turn the Arabs into dust" blinders and see that the true resolution is through diplomacy, compromise and sincere efforts to work for peace.
