Fox News is reporting that Israeli tanks have entered the south of Lebanon. Reportedly, it's a short incursion, not a major ground invasion. Many analysts believe that the IDF is preparing the ground for an assault that will cripple Hezbollah's ability to strike in the future. The Israelis appear ready to fight for the long haul, with polls showing 87% to 95% of the population in support of the effort against Hezbollah. We'll see how much fight the terrorists have after another couple of weeks of fighting.
It's heartbreaking to see civilians on both sides suffer. And the weakening of the already fragile Lebanese government is worrisome. But, this is a unique opportunity for Israel to wipe out the terrorists, who's sick ideology has caused nothing but suffering for decades. I wholeheartedly support Israel.
