The War Is Now Over
[Ynet News ] Eyal Ben Reuven - The return of Israel's two abducted soldiers marks, in practice, the end of the Second Lebanon War. The special Jewish moral sensitivity of Israeli society to all matters pertaining to its responsibility for soldiers sent on a mission is especially prominent in the face of the orchestrated cries of joy in Lebanon on the occasion of the return of Hizbullah's "hero," the murderer Samir Kuntar. One matter is beyond all else: The duty to do everything in order to locate our captives and MIAs and bring them home, even if the price is painful and outrageous. Maj.-Gen. (res.) Eyal Ben Reuven served as the deputy head of Northern Command during the Second Lebanon War.
