Wrong. NATO should be abolished. It is a relic of the Cold War and the myth of an "Atlantio Community."

Let the Euros start their own army.

NATO could be a 3rd party that could be an legitimate stabilization force

This commentary, however, proposes for the NATO forces to be "under the auspices of the UN." Not appealing.

Push back Hizb'Allah until they have nowhere to go, then consider stabilization. Otherwise, by rushing international forces onto the scene, you have stagnation at best.

In fact, what other armed forces could be trusted to not attack Israel, besides the U.S. and ....?

If I were Israel, I would only trust the US under US control. The US under NATO control is a different matter. I hope we never again get into that bind.

Johnnie did not read Carnegie's best-seller, "How to Win Friends and Influence People."

And, one of the (many) things I like about FR is that when I am told I am wrong, I have the chance to respond as to why I am right.

Australia, maybe... Poland, no. They have been great allies in OIF, however, they have a history ...

ROFL!

I will be the first to admit that Johnnie lives up to the name of MR GRIM....

I have disagreed with Johnnie on a few occasions.

What I love about Johnnie- is that he is a breath of fresh air. Ya always know what he thinks. He takes no prisoners....but he never means harm to anyone for it...

He loves our country. He is not here to win friends.. he is here to defend what is dear to him...

there are times I cringe at his wording of things.. but never a time I would not want JOHNNIE to be the man defending my freedom.....

(along with a few other things......yowza!)

;-)

No, it would not make any sense. If one could get a force with a visceral interest in finishing that job - then yes, but the Israelis are ovbiously the most motivated here.

Nor apparently is he a graduate of kindergarten, as he lacks the social skills required.

Isn't it interesting how we can love our country ... in *different* ways?
