That's 90% of the message that they sent by cooperating on this latest bust...that they will listen to reason and diplomacy.
But it won't do them any good unless they get out of Lebanon.
The lesson here is that when the world's Super-Power starts gun-boat diplomacy in earnest, everybody else had better get out of our way. I realize that the Euro-weenies and presstitutes hate that fact, but that's the way that the world works.
Pursuing military options against the U.S., rather than diplomacy, simply isn't wise.
...Not when we're mad and mobilized, anyway.
Now, that being said, once Syria withdraws from Lebanon, Hezbollah must be disarmed, one way or another, by us, Syria, the Lebanese themselves, or Israel.
