You're a fucking retard if you think this is about religion. I'm not a nationalist, religious in any traditional sense at all, nor do I identify with any religious, ethnic, or national group. So no need to superimpose the retarded concepts you (and the vast majority of people) utilize for the sake of identity. I'm beyond all that superficial separatist insecurity driven crap... |

| Originally posted by Q5echo those are actually four of the six primary demands of UN Resolution 1701. Israel with help from the Hezbollah prisoner exchange and UN verification of Israel's full withdrawl from Lebanon has met the other two. my "solution" to the Shebaa problem is that if Shebaa Farms is Hezbollah's "Waterloo", why not put the onus on Israel to release it by honoring the demands of the cease fire? why not show the world your ability and courage to achieve your goals and honor the cease fire and then appeal to the International community to put pressure on Israel to release Shebaa Farms? with the current government in Israel in place that is not completely out of the realm of possibility. |

| Originally posted by Q5echo they haven't fully honored 1701 yet to even begin to make that assertion...however i don't expect that to stop you from making it. |

| Originally posted by George Smiley FFS if we're gonna start throwing around UN Resolutions that haven't been honored [sic] we'll be here all day with Israel won't we?! Why should Hizballah have to comply with UN Resolutions when Israel can ignore them? They occupied Lebanon for nearly 20 years illegally, they then bombed the shit out of the country two years ago, illegally. Not to mention all the UN Resolutions relating to Palestine Israel ignores. The fact is, altho an attempt to 'fudge' the resolution, Syria ceded Shebaa Farms to Lebanon, so Israel is still in breech of 1701 as well. Lebanon went through absolute hell during Israeli occupation and the bombing campaign of two years ago. The Lebanese Army were powerless to prevent Israeli aggression. Hizballah twice were successful in thwarting Israeli aggression so what on Earth makes you think they would think disarming would be a good idea?! The threat of Israeli invasion is always going to hang over Lebanon whilst ever the Palestinian conflict is going on. This is something Lebanon is powerless to influence as proved by their experience in the civil war. But when the Palestinian conflict spilled over their border they were the ones that bared the brunt. I don't like Hizballah and I certainly don't agree with their politics, but nor do I like Israeli politics and if Hizballah are the only group capable of fending off Israeli bombs in Lebanon then to suggest that they disarm is crazy unless there are definite signs that Israel has no intention of bombing the shit out of the country in the future...unfortunately Israel doesn't seem to be able to give those kinds of guarantees |

| 1. Israel occupied the "security zone" north from the Israeli border to the Golan Heights. that buffer was made in agreement. |
| quote: |
| 2. the UN did not and still doesn't recognize Shebaa Farms as a contingency of the pullout from the security zone. |

| Originally posted by Q5echo the last two times Lebanon was attacked were the results of para-military forces (PLO and Hezbollah), independent of the government of Lebanon, waging war on their own terms. |

| Lebanon and the people of Lebanon have nothing to fear other than the zealots within the country of Lebanon. disarm those zealots and lets experience real peace and real negotiations. |

| Originally posted by George Smiley Lol! |
as a completely transparent defence mechanism here and not in any other forum. oh well.| quote: |
| Yea with the agreement of a Christian militia who committed some of the worse atrocities of the conflict with Israeli backing! Shites form the biggest demographic group in Lebanon - don't recall them "agreeing" to the occupation that made their lives hell |
| quote: |
| Well the UN doesn't recognise the right for Israel to conduct any activity inside the West Bank but guess what? I'll remember this insistence that UN Resolutions are followed to the tee next time you come out with some bollocks defending Israel's "right" to do anything it wants in the West Bank and Gaza. But that's beside the point, as Israel has demonstrated in the past, UN Resolutions, much like our domestic laws, are open to interpretation. The fact is, Lebanon claims the Shebaa Farms are part of its territory, and the resolution merely calls on Israel to withdraw from all Lebanese territory. |
| quote: |
| My point has simply been that as Shebaa is worthless to Israel, why not call Hizballah's bluff and withdraw? |

| What have they got to lose? |

| Originally posted by Q5echo it's funny you only see that "LOL" or as a completely transparent defence mechanism here and not in any other forum. oh well.i told you that was an honest and admittedly ironic mistake. |

| wrong again Georgey. the entire Lebanese parliament ratified the agreement only to have it revoked a year later under the real occupation by Syria. |
| quote: |
| yeah, nice deflection to people that haven't had a government other than Israel's for those 20 years |
| quote: |
| simple, an armed Hezbollah doesn't have a bluff to be called. they are who they are. |

| more soldiers like Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev. |
