#1 Yes, the Lebanese army. That's a proven deterrant. Should have thought of using the Leb army before their Hizb cousins took over the show down south.

#2 Fuad is not willing to deploy against Hizb'Allah, right?

Olmert needs to learn from Bush: send a 48h ultimatum to the Lebanese government -- "Deliver Nasrallah and deploy the Lebanese army actually fighting against Hizb'Allah and stop all rocket attacks into Israel -- or else you are at war with Israel and will suffer the consequences."

#4 The hezbullies are a minority within lebanon, Lebanons government has enabled this minority group to bring turmoil upon the whole population. Hezbullies are a political party with two cabinent members, yet they Launched a war as if they represented the entirety of lebanon. Hezbullies are what they are, sources of subversion, intimidation and provocation.

The international force must have the ability to disarm the bully and restore the functioning democracy of a country, representing its population in its diversity and entirety.

hezbullies esteem is said to be rising, I believe this is a lie elevated by the imminent threat they pose to anyone opposed to them.

Its often been said that Lebanon is the Paris of the middle East, it sure sounds like it. The population is acting like the french out of learned behavior, subject to change at the appropriate moment.
