Well, as you know, Hezbollah is actually part of the Lebanese government, so it doesnt surprise me that they are part of the Army. On top of that I dont know if Shiites are allowed to fight against fellow Shiites religious wise. However, if Lebanon wants to maintain their democracy they are going to have to somehow agree to have terrorists eliminated. The damn shame of it all is Lebanon can be a great country, have never in my knowledge been a threat to anyone. Hezbollah is USING THEM as a shield. Were I Lebanese I would be pissed off over it, but then its hard to figure the Arab mind. jdn

This is something the UN should have dealt with a long time ago.

The UN cannot "occupy" a country. Only "peacekeep" it. That is why NATO works in Afghanistan. It can "occupy."
