The Lebanese Govt. cannot stop Hezbollah. Hezbollah took the Israeli prisoners only to use as a bargaining tool to release their own prisoners from Israeli jails. I see no reason why Hezbollah would hand back the 2 soldiers unless they were absolutely facing defeat. We have to remember Hezbollah has confidence in themselves, not only because they have the backing of at least two middle eastern nations, but because they forced Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon in 2000.

Well Mr Haniya, just what do you consider reasonable? Open season on Jews? No retaliation?

Two words of advice Mr Haniya

"The Prime Minister is prepared to finish our operations in Lebanon if Hezbollah releases our two soldiers, stops its rocket fire and if the Lebanese Government decides to implement UN Security Council resolution 1559," spokeswoman Miri Eisin told AFP.

This is defeatest horsesh*t. They stop when Hezbollah ceases to exist. Accept no promise to stop rocket fire, abide by resolutions, etc.: That is cr*p.

They will not be willing to meet any of the 3 conditions.

Keep pounding them Israel!

And please take this to Syria and Iran...
they also need a good ass kicking.

#1 and #2 they might go for, but #3 does NOT have the chance of that proverbial snowball.

Maybe while theyre at it, maybe they can "pound" Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, choice spots in Iraq, Afghanistan, and even go after China. After that, maybe Russia!

Really. Think about the implications of such a suicidal move.

YEah the problem is this. Israel has got to be again be careful here. There is a significant element in Lebanon that likes that Hezbullah is getting killed. The important thing is not to make this symapathetc element hostile to ISrael in the long run of this engagement. Which really means being careful about targeting
THe problem is that the Govt is in no position to dismarm them compeletly even if they could. Also it would start a bloody civil war that is in no ones interest

It's a tought situation

How ironic that it only takes 1 day for the U.N. to condemn Israel and it takes forever to condemn North Korea.

A shrewd move. Israel will tell the UN to implement its own resolution. Their mediators can hardly disavow it.

Sounds reasonable to me too, but it won't happen. The Lebannese government has NO power to put an end to anything connected with Hezbollah.

I don't see how Hezbollah can return the soldiers without
losing face among their fellow Muslims, er, terrorists.

Problematic to a solution is our own MSM. They have given license to Hezboloney. Not a problem if Israel takes em out.
Big problem for Iran and Syria.
Russia too....
