Lebanese FM says opposes US-French proposal





Lebanese Foreign Minister Fawzi Salloukh said he opposes the US-French proposal because it does not call for an immediate ceasefire. (AFP)

http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3289570,00.html

Me thinks this is all just one last effort to appear diplomatic. Why would the Lebanese PM turn down this opportunity to get out of the war, he's got to know he is never going to get an immediated cease fire, this is the best he is going to get, and considering the meager bargaining power Lebanon has it shouldn't be complaining. Something stinks, i just wish i knew what is was.

Shep could use a quick course in military logistics....

On second thought, a little knowledge in his hands is a dangerous thing. So ... nevermind....

when was that posted?

Here is CNN breaking news from around 5pm Easern

-- U.S. and France agree the main points of a resolution to end fighting between Israel and Hezbollah -- including on the sequencing of deployment of the U.N. force, diplomatic sources say.

_____________

It looks like the MSM has had it wrong. Now, Lebanon has rejected the US/France Plan. Knitting a conundrum has just posted an article to that effect.

"U.S., France Fail to Produce Agreement on UN Lebanon Resolution"

Where the heck did this come from, is this just breaking or is this about the failure to reach an agreement from last week

Methinks that at this point the Lebanese PM is a pawn of Hezbullah and Syria.

I think I'll pass on the link, reminds me too much of DICK Durbin.

Yes, I'm sure my BP has shot up. It used to be that only immigration threads did that.

*Sigh*
