Fools and Their Errands
On CNN tonight, Nic Robertson was wondering aloud whether Lebanese president Emile Lahoud’s vow to send his army to fight alongside Hizballah was a way of keeping the IDF “at bay.”
No, Nic. That was Lahoud’s way of asking Mr. Nasrallah to not kill him, pretty please.
Speaking in the third person, Lahoud responded to Robertson’s question of whether he will give that order:
It’s not Lahoud who gives them the order, it’s the government. And I’m sure the government will give the order not to allow Israelis to invade Lebanon, for sure.
Lahoud is staring into the abyss and knows he can’t look away.
Go read the interview. He has no choice but to support the “liberators” of his country. After all, they are the government.
