big wars get started almost by accident

* laura:
"A colleague at the lunch with Israeli ambassador Ayalon today says it was all "Iran, Iran, Iran."

As Sy Hersh said at a talk today, and I'm paraphrasing, sometimes big wars get started almost by accident. He also said based on conversations with his Israeli and Lebanese sources this morning, that Israel's goal may be more limited -- carving out a 20 - 25 mile buffer or free fire zone into southern Lebanon, to prevent Hezbollah from striking into Israel."
