Will Hezbollah Honor U.N. Ceasefire?


There is a U.N. brokered ceasefire on the table. Apparently Israel, Lebanon and (the Islamofascist State within a State) Hezbollah have tentatively approved to the terms.

Frankly I will be shocked if this ceasefire goes beyond 24 hours. I will be amazed if it stretches beyond one week. Here is why:
Defense Minister Amir Peretz said Israeli troops will remain until the international relief force arrives and will be defend themselves if attacked.

"If anyone dares to use force against Israeli Defense Forces, we will see this as a violation of the cease-fire agreement," he said on Israel television.

Israeli army chief, Lt. Gen. Dan Halutz, said earlier that Israel expected to fight for another week despite the cease-fire deal. He said Israeli forces — apparently about 30,000 soldiers now — would stay in Lebanon until an international force arrived.

Hezbollah's leader, Sheik Hassan Nasrallah, meanwhile, said his militia would abide by the cease-fire blueprint but warned the guerrillas would keep battling Israeli troops while they remained in Lebanon, calling that "our natural right."

Both the Israeli side and the Hezbollah side are saying in essence, "If you kick my dog I will kick your cat." Israel cannot tolerate even a single violation or at least Israel should not tolerate a violation. Hezbollah's existence is a living violation of U.N. Resolutions and international decency in their goal to wipe Israel off the face of the earth. Israel cannot possibly believe Hezbollah has any intention of honoring a cease fire beyond the time the homicidal terrorist organization has to regroup and begin murdering Jews once again.
