Hawk, the point was that Israel violates a binding UN resolution no matter what excuse you try to make for them. It is a violation. No.. the point is that you're an idiot. In fact, you're such an idiot you make a moron look like a genius. The ENTIRE REASON there was a war in 2006 was because Hizballah decided to start shit with Israel!! They just didn't expect the severity of Israel's response to the Hizballah's threats/actions. Nasrallah ADMITTED THIS!! Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah said that the group would have never captured two Israeli soldiers, had he known it would plunge Lebanon into a catastrophic war. In an interview with Lebanese television Sunday night, Nasrallah said "We did not think, even one percent, that the capture would lead to a war at this time and of such magnitude." "You ask me if I had known on 11 July (the day before the cross border raid) that the operation would lead to such a war would I do it? I say no, absolutely not." "I would say no, I would not have entered this for many reasons -- military, social, political, economic," said Nasrallah, speaking in Arabic. newsgd.com There's YOUR EXCUSE!! They didn't EXPECT Israel to retaliate for crossing the border and capturing and killing their soldiers?!!! I guess that's NOT a violation from your perspective, right? THAT'S why Hizballah is supposed to be disarmed.. So they aren't capable of making such "miscalculations" again.. It's pretty F*cking simple.. Hizballah has to be disarmed, and made subservient to Lebanese law. If this is not done, Israel will likely ENFORCE that UNSC resolution on it's own. And the won't be asking for permission. Hawk
