The conflcit in southern Lebanon and the Gaza strip is even more interesting this time becasue of the fact that we have a quarter of a million battle ready troops just over the horizon. What happens if the war goes badly for Israel? What happens if Iran gets involved? Or are we enough of a deterrent to stop some of those things from happening? WHta happens if Iran uses a dirty bomb against Israel? The fact that we are there could ratchet this thing up PDQ.
