This is very serious. It is the kind of thing that could escalate into a World War. Yes - World War. All it would take is for Russia or China to get involved. It's known that those countries have armed countries hostile to the United States and Israel. This President better get his act together and start making it clear to Israel that the U.S. would not support another attack on Lebanon. The obvious solution is meaningful peace talks. Including talks to create and Palestinian state. And that ain't gonna happen. Not as long as the Israeli lobby controls Capitol Hill. This is from the Jerusalem Post:
If Israel were to attack Hizbullah in Lebanon, Syria would respond and not sit idly by, the Qatari Al Watan newspaper quoted unnamed Syrian sources as saying in a report published Wednesday.

The sources reportedly added that Damascus considered any threat to Lebanon's security and stability as a threat to Syria's security.
The paper reported that Damascus was worriedly taking notice of "Israeli deployment and maneuvers along the northern border," and that Syrian leadership assessed Israel was planning a military operation in Lebanon in May.
US officials have purportedly notified the Lebanese government that if it does not manage to disarm Hizbullah, "Israel plans to invade the country all the way to Beirut," the Syrian sources told the newspaper.
According to Al Watan, the sources said that "this is a message to both Syria and Lebanon." On Sunday, a senior Beirut-based Hamas official said that his group would work side-by-side with Hizbullah in the next war against Israel, Army Radio reported.
