I'm all for democracies in the middle east. I was pointing out how the Lebanese govt is responsible for Hezbollah's actions. How are they responsible? What could they have done? You know that Lebanon is as divided ethnically as Iraq. You know that their democracy is on a fragile footing. You know that Lebanon's standing army is small and poorly equipped; that after the civil war there were so many repairs and reconstruction that needed money. In fact the need for money permeates a lot of the society because much of their banking/financial industry was destroyed during the war. What would you have done? You blame so easily........so let's hear your plan for getting rid of Hezbollah while 23 Hezbollah members are in Parliament? How much money you would have devoted? What people would be put to the task......all the little details that the PM of Lebanon had to face? Let's hear it.
