The US is giving Israel a window of a week to inflict maximum damage on Hizbullah before weighing in behind international calls for a ceasefire in Lebanon, according to British, European and Israeli sources.
When an enemy thinks that they'll be pounded indefinitely, it takes a psychological toll on them. Uncertainty can be hell. When they know that they only have to hold out until X date, though, it is easier for them to steel themselves mentally to wait out the worst or resist. This news makes Hezbollah a tougher enemy to crush because they now know that if they can hold out for a week, the pressure will probably lighten.
