G8: We'll Restrain Israel When You Restrain Yourselves By Captain Ed on Israel and Palestinians Captain's Quarters The G8 released a statement on the Israeli-Hezbollah-Hamas conflict that attempts to restore some common sense to the global debate on the widening war. Responding to calls for a condemnation of Israel, the industrial powers instead tweaked those who complained about Israel acting in its defense: <<< Group of Eight leaders on Sunday blamed extremists for an upsurge of Middle East violence and while accepting Israel's right to defend itself said the Jewish state should exercise "utmost restraint." Setting out conditions for an end to violence, G8 leaders in summit talks in Russia put the onus on Hizbollah militants to restore peace by releasing abducted Israelis and ending attacks on Israel. Then the Israeli offensive against Lebanon could end, said the statement. "These extremist elements and those that support them cannot be allowed to plunge the Middle East into chaos," said the text hammered out by the leaders of the world's richest nations. >>> They also called for Israel to exercise the "utmost restraint", but that came as subordinate to the demand that the terrorists return their captives and stop initiating attacks. It's refreshing, if a bit unusual, to see sovereign nations defend the notion of sovereignty these days. Michelle Malkin has more. michellemalkin.com captainsquartersblog.com abcnews.go.com
