Cease fire immediately and then the issue of the kidnapped soldiers is to be address urgently.

At worst it should be simultaneous.

It's not a possitive for Israel and the US. Bush blinks.

[Dog]

He did not blink....there is no teeth in this thing...Fox was talking about it earlier.

See this section..

OP13. Requests the Secretary-General to report to the Council within one week on the implementation of this resolution and to provide any relevant information in light of the Councils intention to adopt, consistent with paragraph 10 above, a further resolution;

They want Kofi to report back in a week....this thing could stretch out a month.

[DoughtyOne]

Cease fire immediately and then the issue of the kidnapped soldiers is to be address urgently.

Here we go parceling off Israel's right again. Those soldiers should be returned before anything else happens, period, end of story. There are times when it's actually embarassing to what our leaders are willing to sign on to. Israel, please have the backbone to tell these fools to stuff it where the sun don't shine.

- delineation of the international borders of Lebanon, especially in those areas where the border is disputed or uncertain, including in the Chebaa farms area;

--------

This is a cover for the UN to demand Israel give up more territory.

Not good.

In a related story on another thread, Bush says he is happy with this.

Bush II is as big an idiot as Bush I.

[martywake]

I do not even need to read through the whole thing to know that it will be a dismal failure. The Israelis will keep whatever word they give, because they have honor.

The Muslims will break whatever word they give, because they have no honor.

The rest of us will just scratch our heads and be thankful that it is not us.

Hezbollah won't allow this to shape up. They're not going to stop fighting with Israel in Lebanon. The Israelis won't leave any areas they can't turn over to a robust force capable of stopping more attacks. So the IDF will just have to keep killing Hezbollah. See this article.

- full implementation of the relevant provisions of the Taif Accords and of resolutions 1559 (2004) and 1680 (2006) that require the disarmament of all armed groups in Lebanon, so that, pursuant to the Lebanese cabinet decision of July 27, 2006, there will be no weapons or authority in Lebanon other than that of the Lebanese state;

And just how do they expect to accomplish this one? good luck, they'll need it...

[onedoug]

A ceasefire with terrorists, eh? What kind of war is this?

[Sabramerican]

The US should not even allow this resolution to come to to the Security Council before FIRST the Security Council issues a resolution condemning the deliberate attack on civilians in Haifa as they did last week on the accident- if it occurred at all- in Qana.

I won't hold my breath.

League of Nations

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The League of Nations was an international organization founded after the Paris Peace Conference of 1919. The League's goals included disarmament; preventing war through collective security; settling disputes between countries through negotiation diplomacy; and improving global welfare. The diplomatic philosophy behind the League represented a fundamental shift in thought from the preceding hundred years. The old philosophy, growing out of the Congress of Vienna (1815), saw Europe as a shifting map of alliances among nation-states, creating a balance of power in international relations maintained by strong armies and secret agreements. Under the new philosophy, the League was a government of governments, with the role of settling disputes between individual nations in an open and legalist forum. The impetus for the founding of the League came from Democratic U.S. President Woodrow Wilson, though the United States never joined the League of Nations due to Congress in America barring the country from being part of the League: they felt that America had already had too much involvement in Europe's affairs, and did not want to be a part of Europe's international disputes any more. This sentiment was largely shared by the people of America, despite Woodrow Wilson's keen desire to be a part of the League of Nations.

The League lacked an armed force of its own and so depended on the Great Powers to enforce its resolutions, keep to economic sanctions which the League ordered, or provide an Army, when needed, for the League to use. However, they were often very reluctant to do so.

After a number of notable successes and some early failures in the 1920s, the League ultimately proved incapable of preventing aggression by the Axis Powers in the 1930s. The onset of the Second World War made it clear that the League had failed in its primary purpose—to avoid any future world war. The United Nations replaced it after World War II and inherited a number of agencies and organizations founded by the League.
