Peres says success in Lebanon might lead to Gaza

2006-09-01

(BNA) Israel Deputy Prime Minister, Shimon Peres, affirmed today that the success of the international peace keeping forces in South of Lebanon can open the door for the suggestion made by Italy on spreading UN forces in Gaza. Peres said in an interview broadcasted by the Italian channel Sky News 24 that the success of the UNIFIL in Lebanon and peace with Lebanon might help in discussing the Italian suggestion.

Wouldn't you want to show the success first, before tossing your eggs into that basket? Just a thought.

Ariel Sharon is spinning in his coma ...

#6 Peres will declare it a success in any case.

#5 Way I read it, Peres is saying precisely that - UN force in Gaza, nice idea, Italy, but make it work in Lebanon first.

#4 I'm sure success ni Lebanon would lead to good things in Gaza. Of course, a working perpetual motion machine would do wonders for our economy, too.

One's as likely as the other.

#1 I have seen some televised evidence of Lebanese Army troops disregarding Hizbollah power. That is both a pleasant surprise, and testimony to IDF success in the intervention. And I heard that Lebanon's Ayatollahs are trying to knock Nasrallah down a couple of notches. Two weeks ago, he was the hero of Islam. Are they fickle or what?

Has anyone heard more about the Hizbollah distribution of counterfeit US paper currency? That story disappeared fast.
