"Calls on Lebanon to stop harboring terrorist!"

That means absolutely nothing if they didn't specify Hezbollah (which is party of the d----d government, so how could they?). Since the Arab League, UN, and Euro-twits all take the "one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter" and "Hezbollah is the Islamic resistance" view of things, this part of the resolution does not mean what it might appear to mean....

(a) the sale or supply to any entity or individual in Lebanon of arms and related materiel of all types, including weapons and ammunition, military vehicles and equipment, paramilitary equipment, and spare parts for the aforementioned, whether or not originating in their territories, and

(b) the provision to any entity or individual in Lebanon of any technical training or assistance related to the provision, manufacture, maintenance or use of the items listed in subparagraph (a) above, except that these prohibitions shall not apply to arms, related material, training or assistance authorized by the Government of Lebanon or by UNIFIL as authorized in paragraph 11;
