More hot air. No one listens. Obviously the UN peace keeping forces (oxymoron) cannot overrun the area and engage in conflicts. So ........ UN politicians make speeches and ask both sides to use restraint. And things go on as they have.
2. and does the international community
david ,   hadera   (08.08.17)
AND the Russians need to respect the airspace of Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria??? Or is it just Israel? This man is a blatant anti-semite and should NOT be allowed to visit here
3. Riiight! The fox guarding the henhouse. There is no
Incredulous   (08.08.17)
distinction between Hezbo and the Lebanese military. They are two peas in a pod.
4. Why does anyone still bother with the UN?

5. Lebanon The basketcase of the levant
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (08.08.17)
The South ravaged and violated by Irans Hezbollah henchmen

A NO GO ZONE for Lebanese

A glorified military dump and battlezone that's tunnelled, mined and locked down

How is it that a FOREIGN country Iran through its Hezbollah militias TAKE OVER 1/3rd of Lebanon without so much as a WHISPER from the UN?

Hezbollah with the complicity of Aoooon.have decimated the economy, fragmented society and completely undermined any semblance of democracy and sovereignity

As one Lebanese recently lamented

Lebanon? THERE IS NO LEBANON just an outpost of Iranian hegemony

6. UNIFIL is not capable of stopping Hezbollah
C   (08.08.17)
unifil is by no means a fighting army.
it is at most required to observe the situation on the ground.
unifil will not defend itself, let alone israel.

nikkie haley, who is brilliant and competent should be caareful
not to make the mistake to think that hezbollah, an exceptionally
well armed terror army can be controlled by un forces.
hezbollah must be defeated by israel, alone if necessary.
7. Mr. Guterres, Israel will continue to defend herself
C   (08.08.17)
israel will continue to defend herself as necessary with all means at
her disposal.
the prime minister has made it clear that hezbollah is a proxy
of iran's terror regime, armed with the most advanced weapons,
in particular over a hundred thousand missiles aimed at
israel.
lebanon has stopped being an independent functioning
state with its own policy.
the state and the lebanese military are subjugated to iran
and its terror proxy hezbollah.
iran has on many occasions threatened to wipe israel
off the map and has called israel a one bomb state.
iran does not shy away from attacking jewish communities
on foreign soil. as was the case in argentina, among others.
iran continues to incite against israel in foreign countries,
such as germany, where iran wanted the local
population to vote on the proposition that israel is an illegal
state.
the un secretary general would do well to admonish iran
and hezbollah and demand the disarmament of hezbollah
and an end to the incitement of iran.
8. Where are the Maronite Christians of South Lebanon?
MadDad ,   Johannesburg   (08.09.17)
Ethnically cleansed or murdered
Hizbolla is not the defender of Lebanon but a virus that has taken over the body
9. Yeah right - the UN will prevent hizbolla arming South of
MadDad ,   Johannesburg   (08.09.17)
the Litany just like they've been doing for years as agreed they would
Yeah - and cows can fly
