I see. So by dark hour you mean a moment when Israel makes stupid moves and looks like the evil they are branded as. I apologize. I misunderstood the discussion. I agree that the moments I mentioned are their high points. So...low points...ExNavyAmerican...I concur with your Israeli-Hezbollah disgrace. Israel is under the international microscope and they can not afford to make such brash military maneuvers. A few Israeli soldiers were either kidnapped or killed and Israel launches a month-long war. Israel endures clashes with Palestinians weekly, if not daily. Last summer's war was a message to their enemies, but a message that killed hundreds of innocent Lebanese and cost Southern Lebanon their infrastructure and billions of dollars in damage. Definitely a low point for Israel, but my strategic thinking is probably different from IDF officials making these calls. Apparently the invasion was seen as necessary.
