Israel doesn't give a rat's ass about an internationally engineered ceasefire agreement, and Hizbollah doesn't give a rat's ass about an internationally engineered ceasefire agreement. So why is it that all we're talking about in the U.S. media (and probably the EU, but I haven't been following it as closely as I should) is the ceasefire agreement? This "agreement" is absolutely useless, when the parties fighting could care less. It just provides us with a way to look like we care, when really we are doing nothing, absolutely nothing to stop the bloodshed. We are doing plenty, however, to further confirm the uselessness of the UN Security Council.

did you intend your title for this clip to be "U.S. and Israel..." instead of "U.S. and Lebanon"?

Oh, I just pasted the title of the article. It has it's own twist on things, but I took the nugget I wanted and gave it my own spin. Title-laziness is definitely my weak spot.
