Comments on: Lebanon & The Partisan Punditocracy https://barelyablog.com/lebanon-the-partisan-punditocracy-2/ by ilana mercer Wed, 02 Apr 2025 19:29:09 +0000 hourly 1 By: Steven Bergstrom https://barelyablog.com/lebanon-the-partisan-punditocracy-2/comment-page-1/#comment-13619 Thu, 17 Aug 2006 03:48:27 +0000 http://blog.ilanamercer.com/?p=221#comment-13619 Throughout the Old Testament God has admonished Israel to untterly destroy the enemy when they go to battle and trust him. Unfortunatly they are doing nothing to adhere to this. As the country becomes more secularized (like the United States, UK and Australia), blessings from God will be pulled away.

The good news is God never abandons Isreal and in the end they will be vindicated and restored. Israel will still be used to teach the world through God’s laws the proper way to live and have a relationship with God based on the holidays and the sabbath and of course the forgotten Ten Commandments. I try to lead my family by example and have seen the fruits. I await the day with hope and happiness. God always has the last word. It’s his plan. Keep up the good work. Steve & Family

Olmert, the Israeli prime minister, began to pay the price for what many in Israel see as a lacklustre performance.He had promised that the war would not finish until the threat of Hizbollah missile attack had been lifted and the two Israeli soldiers seized by the Shia militant group on July 12 released.”He destroyed large segments of the Leb and didn’t even accomplish his war goals. I fully understand he was trying to keep down casualties but his failure will insure that more missiles, and other countries, will give it a go. He’s created the worst of both worlds.

It’s easier to drink espresso (along with the air farce cool-aid) if you don’t have to get involved in grubby ground wars. Rumsfeld is a case study in air power delusion. He (along with the air force) has been desperate to prove his failed war theories and he’s just the kind of guy to see Leb as an “opportunity”.
