I admit no such thing. If the UN Security Council wanted to use force to implement SC 1559 it was up to them to say so in a resolution. Israel cannot do so on its own.
This, again, remains to be seen.

You have the ugly habit of stating your opinion and at the same time implicitely claim it to be a fact.

xs gave no link and I can find nothing supporting the claim that Israeli civilians were hit by rockets pre-Israeli bombing. I will say that there is a serious question whether the Israeli soldiers were captured in Lebanon rather than Israel. If so, it was Israel which was the aggressor beyond question.

I was under the impression that Israel initial air strikes were pre hisbollah rockets. The fact that Israel is still getting hit by rockets just goes to show that this conflict will not by sorted by its current methods.

Israel fears talking to the Arab world.

According to this 8 israeli troops were killed, and only two Lebanese civilians, when Israel called for UN resolutions to be enforced, and Hesbollah to be disarmed.

This was on July 12th.

I'll ask one more time.

How many Israelis should've died before an offensive would be justifiable ?

No, Ivanhoe, that is how the UN Charter is set up. I'm sorry that you are so ignorant of it; perhaps you should take some time and study it. Only the Security Council can authorize force to enforce its resolutions. Period.

Your question has been answered. Apparently Israeli TROOPS were killed and captured in Lebanon. How many Lebanese civilians do you feel that Israel is justified to kill in response to its soldiers being killed and captured in battle? A 1000? A 1,000,000?

If your claim is that you aren't very bright, you've certainly proven that.

You're not debating; you've raised no points and made no arguments.

So, keeping with this "you know everything, and everyone who disagrees with you is a *enter your favourite name calling here*"

You do not think there is a link between Hamas, and Hesbollah then ?

I don't know what that could possibly mean to you. I don't know what the relevance would be. Since you keep insisting on not presenting any arguments, I have no idea what you're trying to say. Please just come out and say something that actually makes sense regarding the topic.

I'll rephrase the question, maybe you might answer one.


Do you think there is any links between the constant bombadment of israel from Hamas in the Gaza strip, and Hesbollah incursions into northern Israel ?
