Two days after my prediction that the Israelis would move north to the Litani River in Lebanon, they are doing it.

The Israelis see the “300-500” soldiers lives that will be lost in the exchange as worth the cost of the border security. Hezbollah says that Southern Lebanon will be a “graveyard”.

I disagree with Jacque Chirac who says that allowing continued hostilities “would mean the most immoral result”. It is immoral to demand status quo ante borders that are indefensible and an invitation to future hostilities and extra deaths on both sides of the Litani. Expect the second half of my prediction, a wall, to be built as soon as hostilities die down.
