Give Israel Time To Smash Hezbollah


I have finally read an academic that has stated the obvious:
Israel should be allowed "a couple more weeks to really smash Hezbollah," said Charles Hill, a former director of Israel and Arab-Israeli affairs at the State Department, said in an interview earlier today.

Hill, now a Research Fellow at the Hoover Institution, said he was also wary that Hezbollah and Iran might give in to Russian pressure to release the two Israeli prisoners Hezbollah is holding.

"If that (happens) the general outside world will say to Israel, 'You've got your soldiers, now quit.' "That wouldn't give Israel the time it needs" to destroy Hezbollah, Hill said.

Charles Hill just became one of my academic heroes. It is only when organized terrorist infrastructures are destroyed will the world begin to experience security. This is not just an Israeli problem, Israel just has been dealing with Islamofascists longer than the rest of the world.
