Oh wait a minute, we did attack after 9-11. I had forgotten, for a minute there, that Bush and not Gore or Kerry, won the election.
I guess they were wrong about the big Satan too.

I don't think that Hezbollah or Al Qaida are at all media stupid. They play the 4th estate brilliantly or, as I prefer Lenin's name for the 4th estate - useful idiots.
The conservative faction in Israel knew that exactly what is happening now would happen, unfortunatly they were ignored. Hezbollah knew this as well and played on them. Much like Bin Laden played on us during the 90's when we were pursuing criminal actions instead of the war that it was.
Hezbollah knew the response would be devestating to the civilian population of Lebanon, in fact they counted on exactly that. They have no other purpose in life but to kill jews and when they're finished they come after the West.
