It's the "Morning After" in Beirut that is important...
Not Wall Street's desperate attempt to put the war behind it for a Monday Morning Rally!
Obviously the Street wants to pretend the recent war didn't happen! It was all a war game to establish the new Israeli governments Arab fighting credentials.
BUT, ONLY MORE ARAB RAGE CAN COME FROM THE SENSELESS DESTRUCTION OF LEBANON'S INFRASTRUCTURE.
UNLESS ISRAEL INVADES AND OCCUPIES LEBANON; THE ENTIRE EPISODE WILL HAVE ONLY INCREASED TENSIONS AND PROLONGED THE OCCUPATIONS OF ARAB LANDS...
WHICH IN TRUTH MIGHT HAVE BEEN THE GAME PLAN ALL ALONG...BECAUSE ISRAEL HAS A VESTED INTEREST IN KEEPING TENSIONS HIGH. MAINLY TO SIDETRACK TALK OF A "TWO STATE SOLUTION."
BUT THE WEST HAS ENTERED A NEW ERA IN IT'S RELATIONS WITH ARAB NATIONS... THAT IS THE REAL "MORNING AFTER" WE MUST GET USED TO.
