Why are we in Lebanon at all?  Who cares?  Let the little twits blast
each other to hell and back.  The Israelis certainly don't need our
troops to protect them; look at what they've done in all the Arab-
Israeli Wars!

I would think that the Straights of Hormuz and the oil producing
states should be the main concern considering the maniac in power
in Iran.  (Five will get you ten that the Ayatollah and friends 
would knock off a lot of the anti-US rhetoric if we got down to
basics: our bucks and technology for their oil.)
