One of the most muddled analyses to grace the pages of TIME (and there 
are quite a few). Leaving aside the fact that Netanyahu is a partisan
defender of Israel's insane policy, do you think that this policy really
works for Israel? Israel gained for itself hundreds of thousands of new
enemies (other than the Palestinians) by bombing and ravaging South
Lebanon. Until Israel attacked Lebanon, inspite of seven years of civil
war, there was not one incident of suicide bombing. Today an isolated
Israeli is much safer in a PLO training camp than in a South Lebanese
village.
