| 'No troops from states with army ties with Israel' |
| 2006-08-20 |
 Lebanese President Emile Lahoud said Saturday that nations with military ties to Israel must not be part of the UN peacekeeping force that will police a truce along Lebanon-Israel border. "All that we ask for is that the countries which will send troops must not have military agreements with Israel and that troops be equal in numbers so that no country's troops dominates the other," Lahoud said in comments distributed by his office. |

| #12 Here we go. Let's put only Muzzie troops in Lebanon under the UN. Then when the Hez decide to fight Israel all the muzzie states will be at war with the joos. The UN will falter and the muzzies will be devided between their Islam beliefs and the UN. Assman johnnie in Iran will be laughing his ass off as he will finally get all of Islam finally involved. Oh this will be fun. |

| #11 Not to flatten all of Beirut. Just the government buildings, the residences of the President, the Prime Minister, the Speaker of Parliment, and anyone else in government affiliated with Syria, Hisb'allah, or the ruling families. The Cedar Revolution was a good idea, but received lousy support from the West. Perhaps they will have better luck the second time, if the ground has been ploughed for them. |

| #10 You don't get to ask, Emile. You're the one's gettin' your asses kicked. |

| #9 The UNIFIL deputy Force Commander is an Indian officer and there are 700 troops there (with actual combat experience). Pretty tough ones too - the 4th Sikh regiment. |

| #8 Well, the important thing is, next time Hezbollah attacks Israel, Israel's clear to flatten all of Beirut. The entire country's behind Hezbollah; no need to be so selective. |

| #7 He really doesn't want ANY real troops. He and his Hezbots have got it all under control. |

| #5 C,mon, spit it out. You mean you want no US troops on the ground in Leb ? I think he means, no Turks, no Indians. |

| #4 The farce continues. Rhetorical question: Now that the Leb "army" is no different from Hezbollah, by their own declaration -- then the Leb "leaders" are no different from Nazirallah, either. So, by their own stupidity, put 'em all on the same list. Who cares, other than Syria, Iran, and the dungheap at Turtle Bay? I'd love to see this clown with a third eye. That'd shake up the game, but it'd only be side entertainment. When Iran is decapitated, where do the Syrians and their Leb puppets think they can run? Who will care? Iran has the oil, they have nothing to offer but strife, grief, and chaos. So the answer is no one. It all boils down to Iran. The sooner, the better. |

| #3 C,mon, spit it out. You mean you want no US troops on the ground in Leb ? We won't bother unless the momentum carries us right through Syria down into Beirut. |

| #2 No troops from islamic countries either. |

| #1 In other words, if you aren't going to support Hezbollah, f**k off. The Lebanese government is a sham and deserves no special consideration. When the war comes again, they will be burned to the ground. |
