Israel pulls out of Hezbollah stronghold

BEIRUT, Lebanon - Israeli troops pulled back from a border town Saturday after a week of heavy fighting with Hezbollah guerrillas, and warplanes killed a woman and her five children in a strike that leveled their home. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice returned to the Middle East to push a refined U.S. peace plan.
Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah marked Rice's arrival with a threat to fire rockets even deeper into Israel. Appearing on Hezbollah television, Nasrallah claimed victory, saying Israel had failed to make a "single military achievement" during its 18-day offensive.

Hezbollah can claim they make the sun rise in the east too but that doesn't make it so.
Hezbollah has made the people of Lebanon pay a great price for their arrogance and stupidity.
As far as civilians killed by both sides. If Israel fire was as inaccurate as Hezbollah the civilian death toll in Lebanon would be in the thousands. If Hezbollah fire was as accurate as Israeli fire the death toll in Israel would be in the hundreds at least, but not in the thousands. People in Israel are used to being attacked and have very good shelters.

Israel at this time has been satisfied that they accomplished their goal. Now if Hezollah keeps up the rocket firing I don't know what's going to happen. Lebanon is in agreement with a UN peace keeping force, but Hezbollah may not go along with it. The leader of the Hezbelloh says they will continue sending the rockets out. No Israel isn't giving up. They just wanted to quash Hezbelloh to the point where they won't cross their borders anymore.

The Jews will not come out and fight like men since suffering their casualties, and are now relying on raining their American-made and supplied bombs on Lebanese civilians. The Jews are and have always been cowards, who established and maintained their "state" through terrorism.

Are you kidding? Do you know any Israeli people? They are a bunch of hard heads and never give up.
