"Israel has informed the U.N. in no uncertain terms that it will not accept any countries in the force that do not have diplomatic relations with Israel,"
Looks to me like the plan is not to give a damn about what Israel will or will not accept.

Only thing the UN is going to do here is protect the terrorists from Israel.
Time to send the UN clowns packing so that they don't get in the way of Israel's need to defend itself.
All the UN is doing is getting in the way of civilization itself in protecting terrorists.

"Israel has informed the U.N. in no uncertain terms that it will not accept any countries in the force that do not have diplomatic relations with Israel," That is almost, but not all, but almost all the Koranimal nations.

Oh yeah? And Olmert can't even force the UN to disarm Hezbollah. This is too funny for words. Israel is abandoning Lebanon so Olmert and Peretz could care less about the composition of the UN force. They overlook the fact that by design - the UN itself is an anti-semitic institution.
(No more Olmert! No more Kadima! No more Oslo!)

Iran will give Hezb'Allah long range rockets to launch into Televiv
after the UN is in place.
We have seen before that Israel's PC politicans are checkmated because they dare not attack Hezb'Allah with the UN caught in the way.
