In a recent speech to the Knesset, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said, "The UN Security Council unanimously accepted this historic resolution, which clarifies that there is only Israel and Lebanon.
There is no longer a state within a state... And no longer is a terror organization allowed to operate within Lebanon, as the long arm of the axis of evil which reaches out from Teheran to Damascus, uses Lebanon's weakness and transforms it, its citizens and its infrastructure, into a tool for its war."
This may be an accurate description of this fleeting moment, a moment in which the IDF is still sitting in southern Lebanon. Yet it is more a description of a possibility than of reality or a certainty.
