Here’s<\/a> an interesting article about what the Israeli soldier’s think of the fighting of Hezbollah:<\/p>\n

“It was hell. They are really well trained. They’re not suckers, they know how to fight,” said one, slumped on the pavement. “You’re scared the whole time over there. We didn’t get any sleep the whole week.” There was not a voice of dissent.
