Israel's Tet Offensive?

In an interesting analysis, Dan Gordon writes that Hizbollah lost, and Israel won, except in the press:

What they failed to gain militarily they accomplished through the manipulation of the Western Media, which were their willing dupes and through the ineptitude and weakness, if not down right appeasement of the political leadership of the International community. This has all but guaranteed that this war will be but round one.

As a result, it only delayed the ultimate war, it didn't end it.

[Monday morning update]

I've had to close comments on this post. For some weird reason, it was really attracting spam--I got over two hundred yesterday, and they were continuing to hit me this morning. If you want to comment, go here. Hopefully the male enhancement hawkers won't follow us there.

Round two will find a stronger UN force caught in the middle, and a news media alert to being manipulated.
