The organisation’s leaders yesterday implied that they interpreted the UN resolution as simply requiring that they did not use or display their weapons.
Oh lovely...........
So 15,000 rockets can be restocked in Southern Lebannon. But just hide them better.
Brilliant.

PLANS for a 15,000-strong United Nations force in Lebanon were cast into doubt yesterday when France demanded guarantees that Hezbollah forces would first be disarmed and Germany said it would not send combat troops. Euro-Pussy alert

the existing UN force in south Lebanon (Unifil), which France commands - I did not know THAT!
To: elhombrelibre
Well that is certainly a shocker. As is this classic line "
France has offered to command the UN force that will join 15,000 Lebanese troops in the Shia-dominated zone."
I assume that means they get to handle the checkbook (yea, I trust them)

This time they're trying to save Nasaralah or whatever the evil little twit's name is.

You got that right! French army surrendering before even engaging the enemy!

This isnt really a great surprise and I cant blame France too much.
BUT -------they should have kept their friggin mouths shut about peace if they didnt have the balls to carry out what that peace requires.
Nobody wants to get involved with watching these kill crazed Hezballah sons of bi*ches. Getting in the middle of this mess is a serious affair. Because if you get there and are attacked you MUST be prepared to attack back and kill Hezballah AND the women and children they hide behind while all the time suffering the flames and arrows of the media and European cowards while they tell you , you are wrong.

Wow. Now they've surrendered before a shot was fired.
To: SWAMPSNIPER
Yes, they're not afraid to mock Americans and wear speedos in a combat zone.

I can see it now......Israel will have to go in and rescue the F'ing French! Can't we find a country will some courage and balls to run this thing?
To: elhombrelibre
Once again ..... the French, Germans and the U.N. have allowed their Alligator mouth to overload their Hummingbird Ass....
For you folks in Rio Linda - that means their mouth wrote a check their balls couldn't cover.....
To simplify for you really sheltered folks - France, Germany and the U.N. have been exposed as the cowardly, feckless imbeciles and FRAUDS we all knew them to be..

surrender before you get to the battlefield I think that may be a violation of the Geneva Conventions. Let me check my NY Times stylebook ...

He can take care of himself. Remember that building the IAF obliterated down to bedrock? He was in there but he walked out.
The guy's not human.
