War on terror, with the Isreali Style.

Story: "The Israeli attacks on the four bridges on the main north-south coastal highway linking Beirut to Syria severed the only remaining major road link between Lebanon and Syria. The 90-minute drive to the Syrian border takes at least double the time on the small coastal road that remains open.

Lebanese President Emile Lahoud, a staunch pro-Syrian and close ally of Hezbollah, charged that Israel is trying to pressure Lebanon to accept its conditions for a cease-fire , which include Hezbollah's disarmament and ouster from a swath of south Lebanon.

"The Israeli enemy's bombing of bridges and roads is aimed at tightening the blockade on the Lebanese, cutting communications between them and starving them," Lahoud said.

He linked the new raids to Israel's failure to win quick victory in the south, where Israeli soldiers have been mired in ground battles with Hezbollah guerrillas for several days."

Not suprised... Hezbollah fires 120 rockets, kills 2. Isreal destroys four roads, and cuts off the supply of rockets from Syria. Good day for the world.

The Hezbollahs are whimps hiding with the civilian population and weapons in ambulances and trucks delivering food. The only way Israel can stop them from getting abundantly more rockets is to stop the supply chain or in this case the access roads for them.

Which is what Isreal is doing.

And yes, Hezbollah is broken. Why else is the UN calling for peace?
