For one, Israel can stop trying to get UN/Lebanon/Nato force to take over the fight for them. Basically with the proposed UN resolution, Israel is trying to get someone else to do the fighting while reserving the right to step back in with their military force if the peacekeepers can't do the job.


That's fine with Israel. Just so long as the discussion remains, "Who will do the job?" instead of "Nobody do the job! Everybody stop shooting right now!", Israel is okay.

What they are not okay with is the idea that they should go back to the status quo ante, where Hizbullah ran all non-supporters out of South Lebanon, and launched rockets at Israel from inside UN bases with impunity.
