Saladin-wannabe has 20-20 hindsight!

Hezbollah apparently lost about a quarter of its fighters in the recent war with Israel and Nasrallah is in trouble. According to Amir Taheri, Nasrallah’s spin machine didn’t fool the Lebanese, and the families of those fighters who died are angry because the Hezbollah fighters were in the dark about the war Nasrallah started to please his masters in Tehran! According to Mr. Taheri,

In a TV interview in Beirut Sunday, Nasrallah admitted second thoughts about the wisdom of capturing the two Israeli soldiers, an incident that triggered the war: "The party leadership never expected a response on such an unprecedented scale and volume [by Israel]," he said. "Had we known that what we did would lead to this, we would certainly not have embarked upon it. [emphasis added]"

Who would have thought that Saladin-wannabe would be in these dire straits! Read the full account here.
