You blamed the victims (Lebanese People) for Israeli made atrocities for not doing much to stop it,

Not every German was a Nazi, nor was every German involved in the "Final Solution" aimed at exterminating the Jews from Europe.

But every German paid the price for the actions of their government.

The same applied here. The INACTION of the Lebanese government to secure their borders and disarm unauthorized militias attempting to instigate a war with Israel has only resulted in the Lebanese people sharing the fate of Hizbullah.

The only question is whether the UNSC can establish a binding resolution separating the two combatants and disarming Hizbullah before Israel is forced to escalate this conflict to an all-out war with Lebanon (meaning major military invasion rather than mere border incursions).

I know they certainly would not prefer to do this, given the casualties that would occur on all sides.

But in the face of returning to the status quo and risking leaving an embolded Hizbullah in place that might actually increase its political power in Lebanon, hijacking its democracy as they have its foreign policy, they may opt for it.

Now why don't you try and explain why Hizbullah believes not only that the holocaust didn't occur, but actually advocates exterminating Jews (or anyone)?
