Israel Lost in Lebanon : A Turning Point ?
Old western movies had many stagecoach hold-up scenes. The bandits would say or imply with each encounter, " Gimme your money or your life".
America and it's cats paw Israel in the Middle East " hold-up" for territory, power and money are finding out that the indiginous people of the targeted nations are answering, " Take my life , if you can". From the Palestinians to the Iraqis the decision to fight rather than be occupied is made easier because of the little assets they have left to surrender. All they have left is their life and the lack of joy and dignity in their living. America and Israel are up against the low-cost producers of resistance and war in suicide bombers and guerilla troops.
Israel lost in Lebanon. Of course the casualties suffered by the Lebanese were greater- over 1000 killed. But they were mostly unarmed civilians killed by murderous and cowardly airstrikes. But the Hezbollah guerilla troops inflicted over 100 deaths to the invading Israeli soldiers in a fair fight. Also Israel lost 21 tanks, 2 helicopters and 2 gunboats. Hezbollah losses were by all accounts much lighter. An accurate number has not been published yet.
Hezbollah's high motivation was the margin for victory over the Israeli weapons superiority and troop numerical advantage. This American/Israeli tactical move into Lebanon was a prelude to an Iran and Syria invasion. This failure should be a turning point. America should rethink it's whole strategy of empire and occupation in the region. Also the U.S. should drop Israel as an ally and any future unconditional support for the Jewish state. Israel is not worth it and has turned out to be weak military asset.
The indiginous peoples of the region are fighting for their lives. America and Israel are fighting for only money and power.
