The Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert, taunted Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah during a tour of northern Israel on Tuesday.

 

"While I am travelling around the north, Nasrallah has yet to come out of his bunker. Someone who doesn't come out of his bunker is not a person who thinks that he's won," Olmert said.

 

Olmert also reiterated that Israel achieved what it set out to do - force the Lebanese army to deploy along the Israel-Lebanon border.
