So no nation in the ME has a right to arms except Israel? Only Israel

[jpkenny]

is allowed to accept arms from an ally and to make and sell arms to others? The Lebanese people have no right to self-defense from an outside aggressor? If Syria had to get out, then Israel should get out. This whole concoted aggression on the part of Israel is beyond war crimes. They have negotiated in the past for prisoner exchanges and remember, there would be no captures or attempts of capturing Israeli soldiers for prisoner exchanges if Israel were not holding prisoners from other countries...which were apprehended outside legal Israeli borders.

In the name of humanity, who will stop the Israeli terrorism?

1. Hezbollah should just release the hostages.

Then I would be a little more critical of Isreal.

5. Nobody's going to agree to that.

But I do expect some sort of answer as to why Hezbollistan's UN rep hasn't been active in negotiations, treating neighboring Lebanon like some lowly hewer of wood and drawer of water. Nasrallah did appoint one, didn't he? Or isn't that his job, per the Hezbollistan consitution?

Or is Hezbollistan like Taiwan--sovereign and independent, and dealt with as one, but we agree to a fiction that they're actually part of another nation and deny their legitimate UN representation. Probably so it'll be easier to coerce them into rejoining the 'mother country', or have no defense if attacked.

6. You forgot about "self-confidence"

Pentagon stated they're worried about Syria gaining some self-confidence.

All countries surrounding ISrael should drop their weapons, keep the minimum to crush all the anti-US and anti-Israel demonstrations. But no way having anti-tank or anti-aircraft missiles, it's a BIG THREAT to ISRAEL's existence.

Hezbollah dropped 3400 "rockets" and old fashioned missiles on Israel.
Israel dropped 100.000 "bombs" on Lebanon.
