Lebanon a fait "Boom?"

Lebanon has been directed by the UN to disarm Hezbollah. It has failed to do so -- and failed because Lebanon is too beholden to Hezbollah, and to Syria, to do so. The attacks will never stop until Lebanon realizes that the cost of not doing something outweighs the cost of doing something. And that realization will never come -- apparently, and very sadly -- without strong military action by Israel.

I don't think the central government in Lebanon has ever had the popular support or legitimacy to try to disarm Hezbollah. And it won't now.
