Israel Update

Two AP News Alerts that bear some attention.

The first:
JERUSALEM (AP) The Israeli army chief says Israel has tripled its forces in Lebanon and will continue to fight until a cease-fire is implemented.
If there is any good news to this cease fire, this is it.

And the second:
BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) Hezbollah leader Sheik Hassan Nasrallah has said the militant organization will abide by the U.N. cease-fire resolution.
This is how I know Hezbollah is actually losing. Terrorist groups don't agree to cease-fires unless they are getting creamed and want a "do over." That is exactly what this cease fire is...a "do over" for Hezbollah, Syria and Iran.
