The 1973 war ultimately led to the 1977 revolution in Israeli politics that brought the Likud and Menahem Begin to power.Once the dust settles, it seems likely that Olmert will be out. He's allowed 2500 rockets to be rained down on population centers for weeks now and also made the IDF look somewhat impotent. I believe the Israelis will get the job done in the end but then they're going to look internally and think "who got us into this mess?".
