| MS-NBC is reporting this as video. The following is from LeMonde after running it through babblefish. (a translator program) France and the United States managed an agreement on the draft Resolution which calls at the end of the hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah. The Elysium and the American ambassador with UNO, John Bolton, made the advertisement of it in parallel, Saturday August 5, without providing details on the text to the press. "an agreement was found between French and Americans on the draft Resolution on the Middle East prepared by France to require a complete stop of the hostilities and to work with one cease to it permanent fire and with a long-term solution", the presidency of the French Republic announced. The text must be presented Saturday at the Council by the representative of France "with the concern of reaching the broadest agreement", according to the French presidency. Taking into account the mechanisms of operation of the Council, the possible adoption of this text can hardly intervene before Sunday as soon as possible. According to diplomats' in New York who took note of the draft Resolution, the text would call with a "complete suspension of the hostilities" between Israel and Hezbollah, but not at a "immediate end of violences", and would make it possible at the Hebrew State to be defended if it were attacked. According to John Bolton, this first resolution would be followed one second, centered on the question of the deployment of a force of international interposition. The concluding of an agreement on Lebanon with UNO is "a first vital step to put an end to this tragic crisis", estimated Saturday British the Prime Minister Tony Blair. "the priority is now to adopt as quickly as possible this resolution then to work with a permanent cease-fire and to reach the conditions in Lebanon and in Israel" which will avoid new hostilities. |

| #3 Agreements with the islamos crazies tend to be viewed by them as a me to reload. Their objective is as always--get rid of the Jews and fellow travelers and live in a Muslim-dominated world. That is what they say. What part of what they say does the Western world not get? |

| #1 Don't forget to put in a provision for international troops being required to immediately help defend Israel in a meaningful, big way in the event of a Hezb'Allah attack. That ought to make them stop and think about the reality of it all. |
