Sorry to burst your bubble, but that's not even close

Quote: | U.N.: Israeli raid violates cease-fire
BEIRUT, Lebanon (CNN) -- U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan is "deeply concerned" about Israel's commando raid Saturday in eastern Lebanon, which he said violated the cease-fire resolution concerning Israel and Hezbollah, his spokesman said in a written statement. |

What the hell is wrong with Israel? I know. They shouldn't have signed on to this cease-fire. It's gonna do nothing but help Hezbollah to rearm and strike again.
Wait, that's not what you meant. You were talking about their breaking of the cease-fire. Right.
Well, it's quite clear that they didn't break the cease-fire in the least. The United Nations Insecurity Council is slower than ever to act; the Europeans, who pushed for the cease-fire, aren't putting enough troops into the force; and Lebanon's forces are quite impotent and won't do their job. Hezbollah is already rearming, and, for defense, Israel has to enforce the resolution passed by the Un itself right now, because clearly the international community isn't doing it, and Hezbollah's taking this opportunity to rearm.
A violation of the resolution? No. It's enforcement of it.
If I were Israel I wouldn't have signed on to the cease-fire and I would have done a better job during the beginning stages of the war. This was a loss in the greater War on Terror, plain and simple.

Bah, I was shocked when I heard that Israel agreed to the damn cease-fire in the first place. They should've gone all out from the beginning and crushed Hezbollah before any worthless resolution could've been passed.

Sorry for the double post but...
I'm inclined to believe the IDF's Hezbollah body count, rather than Hezbollah's. Last I checked, the IDF claimed they had killed more than 540 Hezbollah fighters. I don't consider that a few.
P.S. It's Israelis, not Israelians
