Unfortunately, I can't tell whether you're asking this as an American, Lebanese or Egyptian.
Did Israel even have to make promises about a quick fight to the US? I think not, because the US was already going to back them, no matter what. There are indications that Israel thought they could win the fight much sooner; they keep talking about how the Hezbollah fighters are much tougher than they had anticipated. But who knows if they are telling the truth or just want to make their conquest of land and water rights more palatable.
ESPforlife says: " No, it's just a tough operation to disarm and destroy a militany group whom is a part of the civilians. They can't just bomb the hell out of everything"
Sorry but Israel is doing just that with more to come. Wake up, use your extrasensory powers or watch a little TV. Here's a link to a NYTimes map of all the bombings. Scroll down the page, on the left you will see Interactive Graphic. Click show all at the bottom for all the major bombing sites of this war. Lebanon has been bombed, north, south, east and west. Check it out for yourself.

No, it's just a tough operation to disarm and destroy a militany group whom is a part of the civilians. They can't just bomb the hell out of everything. Even though the media portrays that, it could be alot lot worse for the Lebanoese people if they did that. It's going to be a long process which hopefully the internation community will let them go at it and settle militarlly. Isreal will prevail hopefully but it will take a while. They need more ground forces, they can't rely on small numbers as we have in Iraq.

Glorious defeats and disarming a nation takes time. It is not going to happen all at once. Just be patient. Rome wasn't built in a day.

I think you are a fool to think this would be resolved in only a week or two. Go soak your head and take a deep breath.....of fresh water!
