Ceasefire Takes On New Meaning

I guess the Lebanese "peace" will turn out to be much like the so-called truce that Hamas observed when rockets continued to be fired into Israel.

A tense, tenuous cease-fire between Israeli troops and Hezbollah militants appeared to be holding early Tuesday, despite a number of clashes and mortars fired inside southern Lebanon.

Perhaps you have to turn you head a certain way, and maybe squint a little too, to make that look like a ceasefire.


The Israel Defense Forces reported that about four mortar rounds were fired inside southern Lebanon after the cease-fire.

Several minor clashes between Hezbollah fighters and Israeli soldiers were also reported after the cease-fire went into effect. At least six Hezbollah militants were reported killed.

Or maybe you just have to really want to see it?
