The UNpeacekeepers

I don't think we're getting our moneys' worth from the U.N. Israel should feel free to bomb all weapons convoys from Iran to Syria and from Syria to Lebanon.

There's a flurry of reports over Nasrallah's statement that he wouldn't have approved capturing the two Israeli soldiers if he had known it would lead to such a response. If that's true, perhaps the best response to terrorism is a disproportionate one. Hezbollah is finding out that politics less simple than terrorism. The U.N., with its weak-kneed reactions to acts of aggression, has encouraged terrorism and emboldened radicals everywhere.

I'm sure that Nasrallah's statement will be taken by liberals as evidence that he isn't so bad after all, but I don't beiieve him. He would probably have just made his initial attack much bigger.
