Ever since Israel began their assault on Lebanon in response to the Hezbollah (can we please just agree on one spelling?) incursion into Israel and the resulting deaths and kidnappings of Israeli soldiers, the story has been the same. Anyone within range of a camera or microphone on the Lebanese side of the border presents the same sob story about how Hezbollah doesn't represent the average Lebanese citizen and likewise how Israel is the aggressor.
Lebanon, however, needs to own up and shoulder the responsibility for allowing Hezbollah to operate within its borders to the extent that it does. Likewise, if Lebanon is so adamant that Hezbollah does not represent Lebanon, how can they explain this:The Lebanese Minister of Defense warned Israel Thursday that if IDF ground forces are sent into southern Lebanon, Lebanese troops will fight along with the Hizbullah against Israel.
