#2 LEBANESE Prime Minister Fuad Siniora said there was no apparent political settlement to end hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah, and has accused the United States of encouraging Israel's offensive on Lebanon.

Not the brightest bulb is he?

1. Resolution 1559 - you should have done something about it
2. The endless 'ceasefire/hudna' merry go round is over - deal with it
3. The Israelis are going to kill Hezbollah - don't stand in their way
4. Of course the United States is encouraging Israel's offensive - on Hezbollah
5. At the end of this, you might well get your country back free of Syrian influence, certainly Hezbollah will be lying on it's back spasmodically kicking - a can of raid should help...

Don't Prime Minister's have to take an entrance exam or something; "Basic Geopolotics" or somesuch?

#3 Do I understand correctly that this guy is going to sic the Lebanese army on Israeli troops if they invade Lebanon? That's about the only fate worse than attacking Hezballah itself! It must be a political ploy. Any ideas?

#4 Obviously no understanding of affairs is required of leaders. Rid me of Hezbollah or become cannon fodder.

#6 >> Hezbollah's disarmament - also a United Nations demand - would not be imposed with force.

Wanna bet? ;)

#7 Mr Siniora said "the government should be the only party to decide important issues such a war and peace" and that "the Lebanese want no state but the state and no arms but those of the state".
Ms. Seniora cannot even decide if she is a women or a man , how can she decide on issues of State and arms ??

"But our priority is to preserve national unity and it is a matter which is not subject to any compromise," he said.
Ms. Seniora, you may not know it yet but your country has nbeen hijacked by Iran about six years ago - you are bassically the front post of Iran in their war against western civilization.

"Hezbollah's position is different but we should reach a solution in concert with them," he said.
If you are going to reach a solution in concert with the Hizbollah, I am afraid the concert is going to be your Requiem !

Mr Siniora said the damage inflicted by Israel's offensive on Lebanon was "enormous" and has "brought back the country dozens of years".

Don't worry, by the time we're through with you and your Hizbollah friends and colleagues, your country is going back to the stone age !
This is the price you pay for letting the turbans take over your country, so stop whinning, step aside and let us do you the undeserved favor of kicking the Hisbollah's ass out of your country.

#13 Seniora wakes up every morning, looks in the mirror, and says what? "I'm the weak, ineffecive leader of a country held hostage by terrorists, drawn into a devastating war. But I get to wear natty suits, eat good food, and live in a mansion. Man, life is good! Please don't hit me!"

#14 Bush had stated that we will fight terrorism and the countries that support them. Back then, I thought he was urging Israel to stomp on Hamas and Hezbollah. The WOT is ongoing. Israel, India, the UK, the USA, Australia, and a gaggle of other countries are fighting the WOT.
To VICTORY !

#19 Damn straight we're encouraging it, asshole.

Why don't you get your Lebanese army to attack the Hizzies too, and help rid your country of this cancer?

Unless you want the Hizzies Iran to be in charge of Lebanon....

#21 The president is their elected "king" figurehead, the premier/prime minister actually runs the country. Israel is set up the same way.
