Mexican Standoff in Lebanon

Hezbollah says they won’t agree to a cease fire until Israel pulls out of Lebanon. Israel says they won’t pull out of Lebanon or agree to a cease fire until the UN sends more peacekeeping troops. The UN says they won’t send peacekeepers until Israel agrees to a cease fire.

Huh. OK. Let’s see….

The Israeli government is as full of politicians as any other government. They can’t seem to figure out which end is the front and which is the back lately. Since they’re politicians, that might actually be a good thing. Competent (but not necessarily sane or honest) politicians are about the scariest and deadliest things on the planet.

There’s no question about trusting Hezbollah to keep their word. You’d have to be completely insane (or an incurable democrat, which might be the same thing) to think they would really stop shooting at Jews as long as a single Jew still breathes.

And the UN? Ha! Ha! LOL! Hoo! ROFLOL! Oh, man! Stop it!

Let me catch my breath…

I think what the situation really needs is a Josiah to clean house inside of Israel and a Gideon to clean everyone else’s house. No more games, no more PR campaigns, only justice.

Will that bring a lasting peace? Not unless that Josiah and Gideon come in the singular person of the returning Messiah Yeshua. Even so, come Adonai Yeshua.
