After Cease-Fire: Covering Thineself Begins in Earnest Among PM, DM, FM and Chief of Staff …
Excerpts;
At exactly 8 a.m. on Monday the fighting in Lebanon will come to an end. IDF troops will man key positions throughout southern Lebanon, but will stop sweeping through villages in pursuit of Hizbullah terrorists as they have been doing for the past month. The IAF will cease air strikes and cannons will become silent.
But while the fighting in Lebanon might be coming to an end, the infighting in Israel is just beginning. Officers and politicians involved in the decision-making process throughout the war have for the past few days – ever since realizing that a cease-fire was about to be implemented – been working on creating alibis for their actions and decisions throughout Operation Change of Direction.
