Will The Upcoming Cease Fire In The Israeli/Hezbollah Conflict....
let Hezbollah have time to take delivery on rockets that can penetrate further into Israel?

Is the U.S. just going to sit back after the cease fire and watch to see if there will be any shipments of additional arms/rockets from Iran to Syria to Hezbollah in Lebanon?

Is the U.S. then going to use this as an excuse to get into it with Iran and Syria?

1. Only if we don't ship any parts or ordinance for Israel's weapons.
Sure, like that's going to ever happen.:eyes:

2. Yeah, I hope the US is looking to see if Hezbollah is going to import
missles. This sure looks like an excuse for them to try to get them into the US.

8. I Heard Condi Would Like A Cease Fire In A Week Or So, It's Too Soon....
to have one now. The U.S. reasoning is that Hezbollah is not crippled enough. They want to wait a week or two until Israel bombs them into oblivion before they want to call for a cease fire.

I never heard of anything so ridiculous. Shouldn't a cease fire be negotiated immediately? If you wait a week or two - the war will be won and lost.

5. A post earlier said
that 85-95% of Lebanon's roadways have been bombed or shelled. I don't really know how true that is but if it is, it would make resupplying Hezbolla much harder than normal at any rate. If I happen on the thread, I'll post a link.

7. I have always felt they just HIDE behind Israel and take legitimate
concerns for Israel's welfare and use them as their shield as they twist and distort their way towards global fascism.
