This is not over yet.
When it is, the Middle East will be a different one. Hezbollah'S hijacking of the Lebanese state could suffer irreparable from all this, which is good both for Israel and Lebanon, Hezbollah has assassinated many Lebanese politicians opposing it and standing in their way. Israel will not allow any foul compromise that leaves Hamas in control of Gaza strip again, Israel has learned its lesson on this day one year ago. Germany loves to say "never again", and then does not care or even does the opposite. But Israel means it. Due to existential need.
At the end could even be a great war with Iran. But if you ever were serious about preventing Iranian nuclear wepaons then you knew since two decades that it would inevitably come to this day of final decisons. Me, I never accepted the outlook of Iranian nuclear weapons. So may be done whatever needs to be done to prevent it. Preventing it is the only decisive and valid objective there is. And what the West has tried and done in the past one and a half decade or longer - HAS NOT WORKED. Iran used the time it was given to ever creep closer to the point at which they could not be stopped anymore, and the international nuclear energy commission was shown many times to be deeply corrupted in favour of the Islamic interest groups and desires by Iran. Thay cannot be trusted anymore.
Who said this century would become easier than the last one... I think we are closer to nuclear exchanges than during the cold war. In the past, it could have happened due to mishaps and accidents. These days it could happen - by intention and religous furor. Bad accidents are already bad. But bad intentions are much more fearsome.
