Mark Malloch Brown, the UN's deputy secretary general, said he was
disappointed with France's failure to offer more soldiers and urged European
countries to act.
"The next few days are going to be very challenging to make
sure that we meet this commitment to 3,500 troops," he said.
The UN always seems to scramble for troops whenever the US isn't involved. I just wonder if Hezbollah will jump the UN peacekeepers or not. If they start disarming Hezbollah then there will be an armed struggle. Now that would be the ultimate nose thumb at the world if they are able to drive those peacekeepers out of Lebanon.

Joe...my fear exactly. Hezbollah wins because nobody in their right mind wants their country to become a target for their indiscriminate killing. As long as Syria and Iran support them, Hezbollah may do as it wishes--apparently--and the rest of the ME must dance to its tune. As for the French...ce qui font vous prévoyez vraiment que... elles sont les Français après tous...in their native tongue so "zay can be hoppy."
