How Iraq Helped Israel with the Wazzani
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - That Israel hasn't yet taken out the new Lebanese pumping station on the Wazzani is less an indication of a lack of resolve, and more a reflection of Jerusalem's belief this game isn't over yet. The Lebanese have an interest in playing ball with the U.S. because they realize there will be a day after Iraq, and they don't want to be added to America's list of bad guys. The realization that a new reality will emerge after the U.S. deals with Iraq also limits how far Lebanon and Syria will be willing to go now to provoke Israel.
