In the Chicago Tribune, Julie Flint, a former Mideast correspondent, comments on the Lebanese crisis. Midway through, she quotes an unidentified Hezbollah official. What kind of person would say something like this?
“The military situation for us is perfect,” a Hezbollah official told me last week as Israeli ground forces inched deeper into south Lebanon, taking heavy casualties. “The Israelis are destroying everything. Even children are saying they have nothing to lose now.”
