Siniora demands release of all Lebanese detainees in Israel for IDF soldiers
2006-07-16
On CNN TV with Wolf Blitzer: Peretz offered to meet face to face with Lebanese government, IF they will take control of the country. He said, "Lebanon is not our enemy."

Siniora responded with a major tirade saying all problems are due to decades of terror by Israel against Lebanon. He refuses even to mention Hizb'allah. Spittle is flying.

He is demanding releaser of all Lebanese prisoners in Israeli jails in exchange for the Israeli soldiers..

#5  Watched it. Seems as if Siniora thinks this is "Business as usual".

Wrong.

Root out the snake, Siniora.

#3  He's been trying to 'negotiate' with Hizb'allah for years. He thinks he can get them to free the soldiers if he can get ISrael to meet Hizb'allah's demands.

And that's the problem in a nutshell. Siniora either can't or won't control his country. It's fine and good that he NOW wants international help in countering Hizb'allah's power in the southern half of Lebanon, but where the hell was he on this issue prior to Israel's counterattack? It's put up or shut up time, unfortunately -- and I do mean unfortunately, because I had tenuous hopes for the Cedar revolution. But the extremists will NOT allow a peaceful evolution.

#2  Gosh, did he just admit that he has possession or co-possession of the Israeli soldiers?

Talk about stupid.

#1  Bad move. Didn't work for the Paleos, won't work for the Lebanese, and taking Hizb'Allah's position at this point will only make the situation worse.
