Diplomacy and the Hounds of Hell, Part VII

Condi Rice is in Beirut, a surprise stop in her Middle East diplomacy tour that will next visit Jerusalem. This stop has mostly symbolic significance. The Lebanese are incapable of fighting Hizbullah, let alone Israel, so they need outside support.

According to the clueless left in this country, they are pissed that Condi stopped FIRST in Lebanon and was kissed on each cheek by the pm there. They want her to take a walk up the hills to the Hez leader and have a sit down with him.
They’ve been allotvr msnbc, cnn and Fox bitching about how little Bush and Condi are doing.
I wanted to see IDF take planes up and carpet bomb the hills where the weazels are hiding in bunkers, not that deep by the way, and blow them to hell. I know I am a dumb female but Isreal is letting civilians know to leave so why not carpet bomb like we did trying to find binnieladen.
Just a thought from a very pissed off broad.

The Lebanon War Enters the Talking Phase

We are now in the talking phase of the Lebanon War. People nowadays have great faith in the talking phase, the idea being that since war is senseless, all you have to do is get people talking to each other…

But it is highly unlikely that the French, the Germans, or any NATO country would shed blood in the Middle East for this or any other reason. There doesnâ€™t seem to be the international will to fight a continuous guerrilla war with Hizbullah in order to disarm them.

Leave the matter of will aside for the moment. Do the Europeans have the ability to project that kind of power beyond their own borders? This isn’t fighting rebels in the Cote d’Ivoire or police duty in Bosnia.

Iran has substantially upgraded Hezbollah’s ground abilities as it has its rocket arsenal. Take a look at any of the various assessments of Hezbollah’s ground capabilities.

The question, I think, is does anyone’s army other than Israel’s, ours, or, just possibly, the Russians’ have the ability to disarm Hezbollah?

This is a pattern. They start fights and then plead for ceasefires. I realize that Israel isn’t equipped to take on Syria and Iran, but the rest of the world needs to recognize what’s going on and come up with a strategy to deal with this tactic, and lay it at the doorstep of Iran. If we don’t work to isolate Iran and cut off the aid going to Syria and various terrorists, we’re headed for real world war. China and Russia ought to know it, and consider whether that’s really what they want.
