To Terry: I admit to having read many of your comments. I find unpersuavie, like a few others who are resident posters. You are not impressed? What in heavens name would impress you short of Israel nuking Iran and Syria, maybe Egypt? Israel has many layers of problems, each separate yet a part of the total quagmire it's been in since it's creation. If they were solveable, they would have ended years ago. It inherited the territories in 67, stopped the war of attrition..signed cold cease fires. Now it must deal with a 5th column and the Intifada. It's doing a good job, Things could be worse. I personally am delighted that Israel has several deterents..including the "Old Jericho", and the newer, more adept missiles. Let's not get carried away, with rhetoric. For a miniscule country, it defeated 300m Muslims, and is holding more at arms length. But true, it cannot sit on it's laurels..and most always strive for better and better. Considering all it's adversaries..it's doing okay. Olmert is not the problem..he didnt' invent the PALs or Iran. Israel's fragmented society and 120 parties are more of a curse than the weak Abbas or huffing and puffing Hez chieftain. Iran must be sweating in their jock straps seeing Israels' sucessful test.
