Many believe that if this cease-fire could be brought to the Hezbollah-Israel war in Lebanon that there is a good chance they could bring a new and everlasting peace to the Middle East. However some wonder if this would ever be possible. After all there have been peace periods previously and some as long as a decade and yet fighting always disrupts again.
There appears to just be too much hatred between Arabs and Jews and apparently their religious hatred goes back thousands of years. Under that situation how can you ever have peace? Is the United Nations thinking correctly when asking for a cease-fire? Is it really in the Israeli's best interests to have a cease-fire and allow Hezbollah to bring in more munitions, weapons and volunteer international terrorists to help them continue the attack on Israel?
Is a cease-fire in the best interest of Hezbolla? Would this destroy their credibility and make them look weak and how can you trust an international terrorist organization, which agrees to a cease-fire? Even have the Lebanese government and the Israelis agreed upon a cease-fire it would be in valid because Israel is really fighting the Hezbolla international terrorist organization and not the Lebanese army.
Despite all this many people are calling for a cease-fire at least temporarily to get humanitarian aid and even actively to civilians and generally let things cool back down. But will this really bring a new era of peace? Few believe it would, what do you think? |
