Not a Good Idea

According to this Townhall article, the U.N. wants to send peace keeping troops to Lebanon.

This is a terrible idea!

It strikes me as outdated policy to try to preserve Hezbollah in Lebanon. Why in the world would anyone want to preserve the status quo where Hezbollah is simply asked to stop shooting at Israel so that Israel can be pressured to stop defending itself?

Rather, now that the blinders are off and the true nature and desire of Islamic Fundamentalists Terrorists groups like Hezbollah and Hamas are clear for all to see, why don't we allow Israel to defend itself fully? Why not allow Israel to completly destroy Hezbollah? Wouldn't that be a sure fire way to stop them from lobbing missles at Israeli civilian targets?

By the way, has anyone noticed that it's Hezbollah that is firing rockets indiscriminantly into civilian areas? Israel, on the other hand, is for the most part hitting legitimate military targets.

The time has come for the enemies of peace to be defeated. They have proven they cannot be negotiated with. They have gotten nearly everything they've ever demanded from Israel. And still they initiate unprovoked attacks. It's no longer a matter of negotiated settlements. Let one or the other side be soundly defeated. Then let the winners determine the terms of peace. Historically, that's the only way peace has ever been established between warring peoples.
