Why didn't they defend it from the terrorist mutts?

Can't you just picture those Ghanaian "troops" reacting to a hit on their fortress?

Does Ghana even HAVE troops? And if so, can they really afford to send ANY of them to a foreign country to "observe?"

Or is this just another one of Kofi's and the UN's scams to validate their existence?

Because they're like minded?

The only thing I see them able to defend is a summer cold and that's a big IF. Amen.

Exactly: that the Leb. PM and the Iraqui PM on the same day can foolishly call for Israel's ouster instead of the Islamofascists like Hamas, Al Q, Al Acquasa, Hez. is almost a policy of being ingrates to the two nations who actually are fighting for their freedom: the USA and Israel. When 6 years was not enough time for the vaunted Leb. army to dispatch Hez, Hamas and the other Islamo murderers, just why in God's name is Leb. carping now? I feel sorrier for the Leb. Christians who have been bashed over and over by the jihadists. But, apparently, Israel to the rescue and an idea of cooperation with the Leb. army to get rid of the real troublemakers, never has entered the minds of these two PM's.

Yeah. It seems like if they really care about Lebanon, they would fight against Hezbolla

Because they are the same, maybe.

Because they were just finally recovering from a 15-year long civil war, and were not militarily or politically ready to engage in a long fight with Hezbollah. Coming on the heels of a bitter political debate about Syria's withdrawal, going after Hezbollah could very easily have shattered the fragile peace and led to another civil war.
