From the page: "This question is now being raised not only around the world, but also in Israel itself. Clearly, there is a huge gap between the army's boastful arrogance, on which generations of Israelis have grown up, and the picture presented by this war." Comment: I guess the operation against Hezbollah is a far cry from the typical operations the Israeli army is used to: killing Palestinian children for hurling rocks at their armored tanks, or meting collective punishment on innocent civilians from high up in the sky, not to mention the bulldozing of innocent American women who oppose their ethnic-cleansing practices in the occupied territories. It seems that Israel met for the first time in years a semi-descent opponent, quite minimally armed however. I dare say the Palestinians should look-out because the defeated Israeli army will now go after them with a vengence."
