I feel for Lebanon, but what I am having a hard time understanding is why their govenment doesnt do anything about Hezbollah ??
They are constantly firing missiles into Israel from Lebanon, and the government does nothing about it. Does anyone disagree with the fact that a country should be able to defend itself if missiles come crashing down into their cities ??
We can go on and on about who's right and wrong, but the bottom line is some has to stop the extremest element in Lebanon

Hezbollah was the natural result of the people of South Lebanon seeing their lands occupied, and seeing the Israeli planes in their sky since 1967 without seeing anybody facing that danger...
Hezbollah doesn't constantly fire missiles to Israel...
Since 2000, when Israelis withdrew from most of South Lebanon, there was only a limited number of Hezbollah operations in the small still-occupied region called Shebaa Farms...
Hezbollah abducted three Israel Defense Forces soldiers during an October 2000 attack in Shebaa Farms, and sought to obtain the release of 14 Lebanese prisoners, some of whom had been held since 1978.
Hezbollah committed since then to implement its operations in only that small region to make two goals:
1- Forcing Israel to leave that piece of land...
2- Freeing the last number of Lebanese prisoners, and some of them are prisoned since 25 years...
On 2004, Hezbollah successfully negotiated an exchange of prisoners with Israel, through German mediators. The prisoner swap was carried out on January 29: 30 Lebanese and Arab prisoners, the remains of 60 Lebanese militants and civilians, 420 Palestinian prisoners, and maps showing Israeli mines in South Lebanon were exchanged for an Israeli businessman and army reserve colonel Elchanan Tenenbaum kidnapped in 2001 and the remains of the three Israeli soldiers mentioned above, who were killed before that.
Israel on the other hand kept violating the Lebanese airspace without seeing anybody saying a word about that...
Israel refused to free the last Lebanese prisoners in its prisons and actually gave Hezbollah the right to keep doing its operations, supported by the Lebanese government's words...
So, the solution simply is by withdrawing from Shebaa farms and freeing the very few prisoners captured by Israel. Then, there will be no justification to have Hezbollah in that region, and it will become a part of the country...
