| Lebanon: 'No Need to Disarm Hizbullah' |
| 2006-08-16 |
| http://www.thefreedictionary.com/befuddle http://www.thefreedictionary.com/discombobulate http://www.thefreedictionary.com/flabbergasted http://www.thefreedictionary.com/flummoxed (IsraelNN.com) The Lebanese defense ministers told an Arabic newspaper Wednesday that there is no need to disarm Hizbullah terrorists because "the only weapons that there will be in southern Lebanon at those of the Lebanese army." Alias Al Mar told the newspaper Al Aharam that Hizbullah is cooperating with the Lebanese army, but he not disclose details. Lebanese media also are telling citizens that the IDF will pull all of its troops out this week despite Israel's insistence that soldiers will remain in southern Lebanon until an international force is deployed, regardless of how long it takes. |

| #14 The Iranians through the Hezbos got exactly what they wanted. They were never interested in starting a WAR. They were testing--testing Israel, testing the US govt and resolve of the American people, testing the Lebanese, testing world media, and testing their particular guerilla strategies. Before they started this, they knew Israel would launch precision strikes and that they could then rebuild after--with the benefit of engendering even more support among the Lebanese, as well as then having access to real estate within the city that they could build better-fortified bunkers and communications systems in (under the apartments and businesses they will rebuild). And the entire effort would cost them next to nothing. This is only round one. Now they will construct what they need militarily, "bless" the Lebanese people in the south materially, so that they can do whatever they want, with protection, analyze and improve their media relations, and strike at Israel with better and more powerful weapons in the future. Don't ya just love the Iranian hardliners? |

| #13 >>So the minute things break down, they are boned. I so hope you are right, but Olmert has made such a mess so far, I have grave doubts. |

| #12 "the only weapons that there will be in southern Lebanon at those of the Lebanese army." It only remains to be noted how Hezbollah and the Lebanese army are now indistinguishable from each other. Fortunately, this only makes for a more target-rich environment. Syria's next. |

| #11 And to Hell with Koffee and the muslim ass-licking Eunuchs of the UN. You're entirely too kind. The only people who have lived up to their end of things are the Israelis. If Hezb'Allah were gone tomorrow, the Israelis would be too. Everybody else is backpedaling. If they don't figure out how to come through, I'll bet the UN is either finished or sidelined. |

| #7 There is no reason for you to be a country, either. Consider THAT. |

| #6 I said here yesterday that signing an agreement with muslims is like writing on water. The lebanese and the Hizbies are a pack of liers and the degradation of the agreement is continueing at a startling rate. I say, lets go in there (all Israelites-Huh, SPOD) and burn Lebanon and the hisbies off the face of the earth. We have all the required equipment and a willing army. Our only problem is the impotent Olmert and his stupid mock socialist demagogue Minister of Defence Peretz. The long term existance of the state of Israel will be determined by the results of this war. It's time for the Israelites to rise and elect a new capable government, a government that really understands the mentality of the lying arabs. with Arabs you cannot talk, you have to shoot first. All this coming from an ex-labor voter Israelite who until three years ago thought you could negotiate with Arabs. now I say - kill them all ! destroy their houses and their infrastructure, make them run like they never did before and instill the fear of the sons of Israel in their hearts. We can do it ! We must do it, to ensure the survival of our grandchildren ! No more talking with Arabs. And to Hell with Koffee and the muslim ass-licking Eunuchs of the UN. |

| #5 Hezbs also told Lebanese army not to touch any of their bunkers or weapons stotage caches. I'm sure, being the puppets they are, they will follow instructions. Will anything happen when other troops arrive ? Or will shooting start again before that? This ceasefire is not altogether bad, if IDF/Americans get realistic. They now know tactics and fortifications. They need a new attitude. Next go around, use massive shelling and naplam to destroy everything possible prior to troop committment. Once troops arrive, complete the destruction totally such that reoccupation is not possible. Blow all the tunnel networks so that they cannot be reused. In sum, quit playing around. Go for maximum destruction when they start the next round. We know they will. Far too stupid to resist. |

| #4 Israel has the high ground. Right now, they have played the "good guys" by halting their advance. This calls the bluff of those nations who hypocritically offered to send in troops, but now are backtracking. When things break down, Israel can now just sneer at the indian givers. Hezbollah, stupidly, and being goaded by Iran, is flooding back into the South to take back its old positions--not realizing that they are waltzing into an Israeli encirclement. Up North, they would be far harder to get to. So the minute things break down, they are boned. |

| #3 That is because the Lebanese Army is being absorbed by the Hezbollah. When the Maverick missile with his name on it comes through the window, there won't be time for the Lebanese defense minister to reconsider his intemperate remarks. |

| #2 Sounds like the Lebanese Army and Hizbullah are just one and the same. |

| #1 Alias Al Mar told the newspaper Al Aharam that Hizbullah is cooperating with the Lebanese army, but he not disclose details. As in hiding weapons or transporting more Hezbollah people to the south? I give this 24-48 hours before Israel starts thumping people again. |
