Israel: We will not demand Hizbullah disarmament
A senior Foreign Ministry official said Israel will not demand the immediate disarmament of Hizbullah in the framework of a ceasefire agreement. He added that Israel will demand the distancing of Hizbullah from the border and end to the transfer of arms from Syria and Iran to the organization. (AP)

He could be the first to report it :^(
Claims it has destroyed another Israeli navy vessel
Considering the timing of his 1st speech where he said an Israeli naval vessel went down and minutes later it was confirmed damaged, the Israeli navy ought to check into that claim
Israel: We will not demand Hizbullah disarmament

Oh, that's just rich.
Interesting though that David Lee Miller (FOX) is reporting flatbed trucks are still bringing armor to the front
Wow. That must have been a life-altering experience.
It pretty much was. And what made it moreso was that I had just been at the WTC in July of '01. Before going on the platform to see the site in March '02, I was afraid I would get weepy. Instead, I got very, very angry when I saw it. Firefighters were still recovering bodies when I was there.
Seeing that is a vivid, painful memory and I suspect it will remain that way for the rest of my life.
Time to watch the Israeli fireworks.
"the Israeli navy ought to check into that claim"
I find it peculiar that Israel is told of these strikes by Nazi-Rallah speaking in the media.
And I don't mean the Hezbollah rockets, either.
I'm glad Israeel rejected the UN proposal for a cease fire for humanitarian rasons. Typically that just gives the jihadists time to re-arm.
Please tell me that you are kidding. Israel will surely not allow the hezzies to keep their weapons? That was a joke right?
I've been on another thread, populated by those who blame President Bush for everything if things don't work well for Israel, so I left. Have you got info about plans Israel has to let lose on the Hezbos?
Well, I wrote that Israel won't permit a ceasefire for humanitarian relief to be brought in so I'm not sure what you're asking.
If you're talking about reports upthread that Israel won't ask for Hezbollah to be disarmed but rather to leave the border towns, I'm going to wait on that and see what else we hear from Israeli spokesmen because I don't trust that reporting. It wouldn't make sense.
"" Solana, Mottaki discuss ME developments Kuala Lumpur, July 29, IRNA ""
Solana seems to be a busy guy - shakes his finger at Condi and discusses the ME with Iran. Do you think he is behind the latest cease fire deal, complete with a land give away for Israel?
Exactly. That was a bit of good news.
Now I am waiting to see what type of leakage comes out between political factions in Israel. I sort of expect more to happen after sundown in Israel...
Nope. I think there is political waffling going on in Israel, and we have to see them get a handle on that or not.
Now that this has started, Israel can't let it look like Hezbollah is going to win. They have to finish this and do so by whatever means possible.
Personally, I'd reoccupy the southern border of Lebanon and make the Hezzie's sue for peace. LOL
Decided to infect more than one thread, I see. Israel gonna "let" them keep their weapons? So now it's Israel's job to disarm the Hezbollah militia that has infiltrated the ENTIRE COUNTRY OF LEBANON? And about which there's a UN Resolution that says militias must disarm and the government of Lebanon must control its own country? Oh wait, this is Bush's fault, not Isreal's. Bush needs to get busy and disarm those Hezzies.
