Accountability Moment
This reminds me of the famous (to paraphrase) 'yeah, we had accountability, it was the 2004 election': Israel says world backs its offensive in Lebanon (Reeeally?!?). From the reports of non-US media sources, and from watching the press conference following the Rome meeting, it seems that the opposite is true, unless the spokesman means US=world. By bombing so many non-Hizbullah targets (the Lebanese army barracks? The red cross vehicles? The ambulances? The Christian north?), Israel seems almost to be goading someone, anyone, or at least an enemy (lots of those in the neighborhood) into attacking it with a conventional force, i.e., a national army. Then the big dog stationed right behind it can come in and do some regime change.
