Looks like the US blinked first:

"The latest draft reportedly does not call for the immediate disarmament of Hizbullah, and calls for French troops to join both a UNIFIL force and the Lebanese army in the Israel-Lebanon border area."

LOL. I used to bring my own miniature liquor bottles on board to avoid paying $5 for a mixed drink- there went that out the window too. At least chocolate hasn't been banned.
