PSYCH!

What a brilliant, brilliant strategy the Israelis pulled off this weekend.

� On Sunday, Israel announced a 48-hour break in its air attack on Hezbollah.� Then, as soon as the maggoty vermin crawled out from under the cribs and craddles, Israel picks them off from the air.�

Perfect.� Bravo!� Give them no quarter! (See Rhymes With Right for the sequence of events.)

� The usual suspects–the NYT, WaPo, DNC–will decry Israel’s pinnache as “inhuman” and “unfair.”� What’s fair in war?�

This was a genius, calculated maneuver designed to flush out and kill the enemy.� Far from inhumane, killing terrorists with or without deception serves as monumental evidence of Israel’s abounding respect for human lives:� their own and those of Lebanese non-combatants.�

Three cheers for the IDF and this slap in the face of the UN.
