DescriptionThe Israeli prime minister has announced an inquiry into the Lebanon war but not an independent investigation.

Ehud Olmert's choice avoids the risk of high-level resignations that might have arisen after an independent inquiry.

"The government, headed by myself, will appoint an investigative committee," Olmert said.

"The committee will be charged with examining the government's functioning in taking decisions and all that it sees as fit."
