UPDATE: With the passing of the UN resolution it now seems that Olmert's belated grand offensive has only a few days left to run, on Saturday the Lebanese government will vote on it and on Sunday it's the Israeli cabinet that will cast a ballot. No word on Hezbollah, but one can assume that Nabih Berri will have a busy weekend acting as interlocutor between Nasrallah and Siniora. Ed Morrissey has a good analysis of the situation and proclaims the UN Resolution to be a 'mixed bag' with good and bad elements. He's right, but by moving more troops into Lebanon and creating a stage for major operations, Ehud Olmert has ensured that he will be able to effectively manage a number of different post-resolution scenarios. Stay tuned, this weekend is going to be very interesting.
