    What's the point?

    What's the point of having a cease-fire when the cease-fire isn't to take effect for a couple of days, and the parties to the cease fire take advantage of those couple of days to continue to bomb the hell of of each other?

    agreed...and not only that, but the cease fire doesn't solve anything imo. i guess neither does bombing the hell out of each other, but basically Hezbollah is still there, and they're going to rearm, and we're going to replay this whole cenario over in the future. over the course of the next few weeks, it will be interesting to see how large and effective the multinational force is in south lebanon.

      It will also be interesting to see who makes up this so called multinational force.

        Maybe their thinking is any stop in the fighting is better than fighting?

          well, it's tough to argue with that. Giving them time to keep fighting just seems so counter to the idea behind the cease-fire, though....
