every year isreal/lebanon get back on the news when it's slow news day here. It's been like that for the past 30 yhears. Then people get tired of the news and then it gets back to Paris Hilton, Lohan or whatever scandalous news. Look up 1990's newspapers, same exact stories only the dates change. People debate when it's the news - as soon as it's off the news, people forget and move on. The rest (including our govt) don't even give a shit and switch the channel as soon as that boring news comes on.
(btw: how many in america even know what gaza strip, plo, hezbollah, beirut, lebanon, palestinain state, jewsish congress, etc. are? 10%? go outside and take a poll! now ask about lindsay lohan.)
