Personally, I hope that Bush does not follow the temptation presented to him by some of the conservative commentators. They want him to send troops to Lebanon. The last thing we want, or need, is to come into direct military confrontation with Hezzbollah. I have no objection to Bush putting pressure on Syria to get out--even clandestin pressure. But US troops in Lebanon would be nothing but an easy target.

Yep it would be another Vietnam quagmire for sure.
We'd need 10's of thousands of body bags.
(Where have we heard that before?)
