Today I reconnected with Omri @ Mere Rhetoric of course the topic was about the latest unpleasantness going on in Southern Israel and Gaza.  He seems to be of the mind that the ground offensive will begin today and be very brief.  G-d I hope not....because it just means (in my mind) that this will only be repeated again in a year or two. 

Well no matter the result it will be interesting to see how this plays out in Israel's general elections....because it is in Barak's hands to lose at this point.  If the war is deemed a success then he will be the next PM...if it turns sour it will be a landslide for Bibi.
