I read this comment on a Lebanese blog and i found the facts that this guy “omare” wrote very interesting and worthy discussing. I have also heard about reports done by French news reports on how chaotic the war was and how unorganized and how low was the soldiers’s morale, not to mention the generals.

I am still looking for an Israeli thourough explanation on that issue because it does raise a lot of questions for future conflicts, especially if Olmart doesnt stay in power.

Point 1:
——-
Israel had nasrallah located and his top leadership right early afternoon wednesday after the border attack.

They intercepted communications and had them in 4 crowded buildings in beirut that the iaf wanted to hit and olmert refused to pull the trigger. That was the one chance they had them. The difference between nasrallah not being here is having a kadima milktoast pm instead of a likud pm.

Point 2:
——-
They also could have shut down al manar but shutting down the international satellite from lebanon. Olmert refused that.

They could have caused choas in beirut by hitting the 2 billion power grid in beirut but olmert refused.

Point 3:
——-
You could greatly diminish these rockets with a laser anti rocket system that could shoot them down. It wouldn’t be able to stop a massive barrage but it would stop a lot of them. You could protect your major cities with this system but the kadima useless govt refused to fund it.

Same think with the cornet. Those anti tank rockets should be useless. Israel has a system to shoot down those incoming rockets for tanks. Only 4 of their tanks had them in lebanon and they weren’t hit. The useless kadima party didn’t fund the system or else all 400 of those tanks could have stopped all those cornets. In the field testing they are stopping all of them. Also there is technology to jam ied’s which the u.s and israel didn’t fund and are now only funding.

Israel didn’t have the bunker buster bombs that could have taken out the bunkers in beirut and taken out the rockets in the bunkers. Halutz rejected them.

Israel didn’t have the new cluster bombs they were firing vietnam era cluster bombs that were useless.

Point 4:
——-
Israel will be much better off years down the road with this new technology and a likud prime minister who will also land helicopters behind enemy lines from the start and attack from behind. Syria will regret not going to war with Ehud Olmert because Israel will be far better militarily with a prime minister like bibi than Ehud the liberal.
