New Strategic Developments

I have just heard the sound of the rockets attacking the nearby city of Haifa, while writing this post. The sound this time was very immense compared to the previous attacks, and it seems that two people were killed. This has become the new routine of Haifa; people go to work normally but when the alarm is heard, almost the entire city goes undergound. Those who do not follow the instructions are those who usually get hurt.
Meanwhile, Israeli troops started to enter Southern Lebanon in order to control the boarder, in an attempt to prevent Hizbullah from shooting rockets to Israel. So far Israel has conquered the Lebanese town of Maroon Al Ras, which is considered to be the most strategic. Israeli troops are saying that Hizbullah fighters left the town after the Israelis managed to control it. It doesn't seem that Israel is trying to go back to Lebanon, but it is going to be the beginning of a new military action in which some troops will enter and some others will leave, until a cease fire is declared. This week the real diplomatic attempts to stop the war will begin, and I can only hope they will be effective, and that this situation will end as soon as possible.
