That war in Lebanon

There's been a bit in the news in recent days about Ehud Olmert's leaked testimony to the Israeli commission examining the failures in their war last summer. He said that they had plans for war ready months in advance. He said this was so that they'd be 100% ready to respond to an incident such as a kidnapping of one their soldiers.

Ok, but the other way to look at it is that they planned out a war they wanted to have, and just needed an excuse to begin it. Jonathan Cook lays out the argument.
