Lebanon will not force Hizbullah to withdraw
The Jeusalem Post ^ | 8/13/2006 | JPOST.COM STAFF

Posted on 08/13/2006 9:54:30 PM PDT by garbageseeker

Lebanon's ambassador to the UN said that his government would not use force to ensure the dismantling of Hizbullah, sources said early Sunday morning. He claimed that Hizbullah would independently be responsible for leaving south Lebanon.

"We could have completed a cease-fire by Sunday morning, but Israel insisted on destroying the essence of Lebanon," the ambassador commented while being interviewed by CNN.

More from Lebanon. It seems that there is active support for Hezbollah at the highest levels of the Lebanese government

There are members of Hezbollah is the Prime Minister's office. The PM of Leabanon has no intention what so ever to stop Hizbollah. That is why the Israelis need to capture Beirut.

Amen. I hope they go all the way to Damascus, and with our help and God's to Teheran.

They will only be rational when they are defeated and that means a very, very bloody un-PC war. Lebanon has just showed their hand and their allies are not the peaceful world. It is a shame that the pictures we saw of Lebanese celebrating in the streets a few months ago are now being 'occupied' by a terrorist regime. They have chosen to lay down with the dogs.

Pray that a lamp my be brought to them to light their feet.

Well, if hezbolla is the essence of lebanon, then the whole lebanon needs to be destroyed together with such essence.==

Exactly. Hezzies are definitely the core of Lebanon. Same as whole Middle East.

Accually Hezzies are moderate. Compare to Hamas for example.
Hezzies are not blow themselves up in population gatherings.

Good, no use having this sham cease fire last any longer than necessary.......now the IDF can get back to work, making the civilized world safer.
