Unfreakinbelievable, isn't it?
calming down thanks. I invested to much into this I guess. Regards.
My view is, Condi is doing her job as Secretary of State, playing the good cop to John Bolton's Bad Cop (which he does very well : )). When the cease-fire is broken by Hizbollah's Iranian masters, Bush will have political cover from what's happening now to say, hey, at least we tried it Kofi's way.

It's hard catching up here when you have been gone for a couple hours and the thread is moving fast and furious.
we were talking upthread - the US is all alone now, its the only country left to lead the fight against them. and even we may not have a majority, or at best a slim one, of our people who are willing to pursue it.

but they will accept it
The fine print of this agreement places the blame for a)foreign troops inside of Lebanon b)arms / war equip on the shoulders of the Lebanesese Gvt. Paving the way for the next battle in which Israel will be at war not only with Hezzi but Lebanon.
A war which is legal according to the UN's own agreement.
...just a thought.

Annan: Decision on when ceasefire will come into force to be made on weekend
UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan said that he will determine with the sides over the weekend when the ceasefire will come into force.
He added that UNIFIL's mission was more difficult and dangerous, to make sure that no vacuum is created between the IDF's withdrawal and the deployment of the Lebanese army. (Yitzhak Benhorin, Washington)
