GINGRICH: THE CEASE-FIRE IS “A DEFEAT FOR ALL OF THE DEMOCRACIES”

Finishing with “There is no evidence that Hezbollah, the aggressor, is going to be disarmed, despite the hopeful words of the UN resolution. And if Hezbollah is not going to be disarmed, the cease-fire amounts to little but a lie. Because if Hezbollah is not eliminated as a threat to Israel, all the cease-fire will do is put additional UN troops in Lebanon, behind which Hezbollah will recruit, organize and prepare for the next war with Israel. We will have made Israel's job defending itself harder, not easier.” (Human Events) Meanwhile, Olmert deals with public frustration over the handling of the war. (FOX News)
