Ignoring Reality in Lebanon

Here is a sad article in Slate about the current state of affairs in Lebanon. The author believes the situation is not good. I won't try to summarize the article, except to suggest that Lebanon is like a bomb with a short fuse moving through an arena of lit matches, any one of which could set it off.

Whatever we hear about Lebanon seems to be from the perspective of this writer. I wonder how Lebanon looks to the Shiite members of Hezbollah? Possibly the view is relatively positive.

I wonder if the Hezbollah have figured out that if they twist the IDF's tail again the results are likely to be martyrdom for thousands? Who knows, maybe they're okay with that.
