"There's no way that an American, or probably even a European will be elected to Kofi's job."

Boy, she is not backing down. "The Hezbollah within the government took actions WITHOUT the knowledge of the government which plunged the Lebanese people into this situation."

The permutations are dizzying, much like the modern democrat.

Question is why Lebanese govt doesn't reign in Hezbollah.

Bolton says govt is too new, too weak. Hezbollah gets a lot of syrian support.



Lebanon agreed to various accords mandating they disarm all militias.

In February of this year, the Lebanese Government removed Hezbollah from it's list of militias, preferring to call them a "resistance group". Draw your own conclusions as to Hezbollahs penetration into Lebanese government.

Lebanon has no-one to blame for the undoing of a decade of hard work, but themselves.

Several thousand is not massive. Massive is a couple of divisions:)

Wouldn't be surprised. The Lebanese constitution limits how much they can control the government...

I would consider "call to prayer" an air raid siren.
