Israel Blockades Lebanon

Once again your need to take the Lebanese side interferes with your honesty.

The wording of the resolution prohibits offensive action by the Israelis.

Why is that a problem? Because the Lebanese, along with everybody else, know that Hezbollah are NOT going to adhere to a ceasefire if they are left alone.

Therefore the Lebanese know that Hezbollah are going to make further Israeli responses a certainty, making the ceasefire redundant before it is even implemented.
 
of course the Lebanese are the victims here,




I'm not sure of that, besides Israel claims that its demolition of the Lebanon is defense and not offense



Not necessarily Hezbollah have already offered a ceasefire, why has this not been taken up ?
 
At least you acknowledge that your bias has made you dishonest.





It is defense. It is in response to Hezbollah attacks. If Hezbollah stop attacking, Israel would be prohibited from launching further attacks by the wording of the resolution, unless Hezbollah break the ceasefire.

The reason the wording is not equivalent to an unconditional ceasefire, is that everybody knows that Hezbollah won't adhere to it.
 
i admit that I biased towards the Lebanese victims, quite how that makes dishonest I don’t know



targetting Lebanese civilians and demolishing their country is not defense, it is madness.

Imagine if the British Government had adopted similar tactics in Northern Ireland, we would still be fighting there now, But the Bristish Government did not and now thankfully there is peace in Northern Ireland.
 
Maj.-Gen. Udi Adam said the IDF was making plans to occupy areas of Southern Lebanon....
 
They are doing a better job than Lebanon & the UN. Hezbollah is acting like recruitment in Israel convincing more Israeli's more action is necessary.
 
It is exactly self defense. Hezbollah exists to destroy Israel. I didn't see anyone in Norther Ireland trying to destroy Britain and wipe it off the face of the Earth. I didn't IRA backers threatening Nuclear destruction of Britain.
 
Actually Hezbollah was formed in order to kick Israel out of Lebanon which they did.

As for Northern Ireland the British Government did not escalate the conflict by slaughtering civilians and demolishing Northern Ireland.

Perhaps the Israeli government should take a leaf out of the British Governments Book and look for a peaceful solution.

But then again perhaps it is not peace that they want but land.
 
This is not Northern Ireland! The British Gov't has never had the problems Israel has. Nobody wants to destroy Britian. It neighbors are no longer threatening invasion. Britian did help in destoying Germany during WW2 and civilians were killed!
 
So your proposal is to allow 40+ more years of low-intesity conflict ala British Government playbook? Good solution.
 
Aw you poor confused man. I can see how it might be difficult to follow how you were dishonest since you can't retain a coherent position from one post to the next.

I'll explain: You totally misrepresented the UN resolution wording, saying it allowed Israel to continue attacking Lebanon. In reality, it prohibits offensive action by the Israelis.

Therefore the only requirement to end further violence under this resolution would be a ceasefire by Hezbollah. So ultimately that is the sticking point that is preventing the UN resolution from going through.
 
Why didn't that work this time? What makes you think that fear of the Israeli return will cause the Lebanese to pressure Hezbollah the next time when that fear didn't work this time?
 
I don't know about Zionism, but I do know about Islam and Hezbollah's interpretation of it, which I why I know there can never be a negotiated settlement.
 
You are an ostrich with your head in the sand if you believe Hezbollah and other Islamic militants do not represent evil in our time. Easier and safer to try and reach an accord with the devil than with Islamists. If you think Israel is the terrorist threat in the region you either do not understand what terrorism is or you are intentionally a moron.
 
If that's the case, then why do you demand that Israel give up it's military gains?

The truth is, the UN resolution called for Israel to be relieved by the UN force so as not to create a seam in which Hezbollah could operate or move weapons. Why would you be opposed to stopping that if your interest is peace?
 
Exactly my point; thank you for proving it. There can be no negotiated settlement with these people. Israel's options are to destroy them utterly, or face continued violence.
 
So instead of arresting gang members in the US, we should negotiate with them? Ask them if instead of stealing from the jewlery stores if we can give them all the jewlery instead?




Yeah, you are right. The 1948 war happened because Israel tried world domination. The 67 war happened because Israel tried world domination. Israel is the root of all evil.

This may come as a surprise to you, but the fact that Israel exists in the region is reason for some to hate Israel.




You admitted you used the word first sarcastically and that you think Firecoins used it afterwards in a serious manner. I and others thought he was the one being sarcastic. Whether he was or not, you were the person that brought it up. That means you were the one wrong. As usual.
