Mea Culpa again

Dedicated readers (ha ha ha) will still no doubt be waiting with baited breath for my explanation as to why I got it so wrong about the Israeli invasion of Lebanon. Like most people, I expected the Israelis to win more or less immediately, and then 'ethnically cleanse' Lebanon up until to the Litani river. This may well be the final aim, and they may yet achieve it, but this seems less and less likely. Instead the Israelis (much to my surprise) met with a complete and humiliating defeat. How could I get it is so wrong? (Apart from the fact that I am stupid, of course). And how could they? (Apart from the fact that they are stupid). This article helps to explain.
