IDF prepares s. Lebanon civil rule
OC Northern Command Maj.-Gen. Udi Adam acknowledged in a briefing at Northern Command headquarters in Safed on Sunday afternoon that the commander of the IDF's civil administration unit had already begun preparations toward the possibility of instituting a military administration in areas captured by the IDF over the last week.

PM: Media biased, doesn't show 'murderous viciousness' of Hezbollah
Olmert insists that the international media isn't showing how brutal the Hezbollah can be. He must be forgetting that the Hezbollah are not the country of Lebanon or it's citizens. He is also crying about the fact that Israel, the "victim," is being portrayed as an aggressor. You know what they say: if the shoe fits....
