so-neither Israel nor Hezbollah are present for these UN meetings? |
|
on CNN International,they had a short discussion,where it was determined that lebanon would represent Hezbolah,and the US would represent Israel's position.Is this accurate?Why are we even bothering having these talks?

1. Lebanon is representing Hezbollah? |
|
That's seriously messed up. Lebanon would/should be representing Lebanon. As to the US representing Israel, who could tell the difference anyway.

3. To make progress, Iran is needed. |
|
That's the country playing Hezbollah like a proxy army, with Syrian support - something that neither Israel nor Lebanon like at all. Hence the big billboards in Tehran showing pictures of Nasrallah and "reminding" Muslims that it's their "duty" to destroy Israel.

I think it's gotten to the point that it is a "shirts/skins " ballgame.Then in the first quarter, the shirts take off their shirts and NOBODY knows who is on who's side.
