"PM 'says Israel pre-planned war'"
You don't have to be a conspiracy nut to understand exactly how that headline will be read by the millions upon millions of Jew-haters across Britain and the world: Israel conspired to provoke the war in South Lebanon (for its own devious purposes.
The mundane truth that EVERY country has established military doctrines about what to do in certain statistically likely scenarios confronting it will not intrude into the caterwauling that will now follow this 'revelation'. Germany had the Schlieffen plan concocted many years before world war one. It then used this plan not once but twice, the second time successfully, because Germany's geographic situation means that its permanent number one enemy is France. Sadly, Israels permanent number one enemy is the whole of the Ummah. So it has, one presumes, a cast-iron contingency plan for invasion and attack from every one of its neighbors; even plans covering its near-non-neighbors too. The 'revelation' of this fact is not interesting except to BBC journos and the Muslim conspiracy theorists. I don't know who I loathe more.
