Riad sent this:
"This just in: Olmert is leaning towards establishing a 1-2 km wide security strip along the borders. That way, instead of reaching Haifa and beyond, Hezbollah rockets will only reach.......Haifa and beyond. So far, the Israeli operation is an unqualified success.
By the way, check out this piece in Haaretz. In it, the IDF reports that they were reluctant to deploy Apache helicopters to rescue soldiers in Bint Jbeil for fear of being shot down, indirectly admitting that the previous Apache that crashed was actually shot down by Hezbollah."
