Lysi,

HEZBOLLAH rockets, when and if you get hold of one, have a look underneath to see if it says Made in china, Tiawan, Syria, Iran or most probably actually in France.

If this war ends then hezbollah would start a civil war as they feel that other groups in Lebanon are not supporting them against the invasion.
Winners of this conflict is Hezbollah as they are not a terroists group anymore but a political identidy which will go to the negotiating table if that ever happens.
Things will get really messy as mentioned by others if Iran gets into the dance and lets not forget Turkey which is demanding to invade northern Iraq to destroy their own terroists.

Have you a solution proposal Lysi , what do you think ought to happen after a ceasefire in order to achieve permanent peace. Would be interested to hear your views.
Incidentally 6 Israeli civilians were also killed yesterday by Hezbolah rockets .

The ISRAELIS should stop the daily murders & kidnappings that they carry out in the WEST BANK & GAZA every day, and they should stop committing GENOCIDE in LEBANON. If if were not for there financial backer & arms supplier the USA , Then i dont think ISRAEL would go around killing so many women & children & think they could get away with it.
HEZBOLLAH are giving ISRAEL a taste of there own medicine.

[miltiades]

So what do you propose as a solution so that both the Palestinians and the Israelites live in peace and harmony.
Don't just go on about killings but concentrate on a solution proposal, all you seem to do is spew poison directed at Israel and America , you even rejoice when Hizbollah are on target with their ineffective somewhat rockets.
Can you also elaborate on your statement that the " ISRAEL would go around killing so many women & children & think they could get away with it. "" Why are they doing this , can you tell us , or as our new friend suggested to you "put up or shut up" So please don't be an ignorant little twat and give us your answer.

I believe the original plan was to go in and attempt to root out Hezbollah in what they thought would be a fairly quick operation. I also think that the Lebanese governement was prepared to go along with it up to a point as Hezbollah has been a thorn in their side on occasion and was controlling southern Lebanon. And the UN had asked them to do something about disarming them, a difficult move given the chance of another civil war among the Lebanese factions.

I believe Israel, which has ignored more UN resolutions than any country in history, became impatient altho the Lebanese govenrnment was in talks with them about the issue of disarming. In fact, if things had been left alone, the necessity of Hezbollah had somewhat diminished since they pushed Israel out of Lebanon six years ago.
I think no one anticipated the amount of resistance put up or the capabilities, organisation and the support Hezbollah had when this misadventure began.

The Israel campaign went too far, evidenced by a turnround in statements by Lebanese politicians. In the beginning they didnt say much but after the massacre in Qana - the second one in ten years - the cost became too high for Lebanon's government to tolerate it any longer and they told Condo-sleezza Rice to take a hike when she went to the region last week.

I think it was General Grivas who said some thing like "you don't send an elephant to catch a mouse. You send a cat." This is the essence of defeating guerilla warfare, if that is your real aim.

If that was not Israel's plan, and the whole point is all-out conflcit in the region by provoking Syria and Iran, then that's another story altogether. Only time will tell.

At the moment all the Israeli action is doing is increasing support for Hezbollah and turning many people in the west against Israel.

I would have thought that they are in it up to their grizzley little teeth, sort these two out and Hezbollah are, and have nothing.

In yesterdays' Sunday Times a very interesting article well worth reading.
An insight into the current conflict in the M.East , doesn't offer much hope for a peaceful solution.
