But the UN isn't supposed to be "one side". They were supposed to be monitoring the peace while Lebanon disarmed Hezbollah. Now they're supposed to be doing it
again, and already France and Lebanon are wimping out, since Hebollah got what *they* wanted.
What was supposed to be "no weapons" has somehow morphed into "no
visible weapons"; i.e. Hebollah will still be armed, but we'll play another "don't ask don't tell" game.
Untll Iran needs another distraction, anyway. That should be in about 30-60 days, I'd guess.
I just don't consider contravening multiple UNSC resolutions to arm a terrorist militia surrogate of a third party nation, concealing itself in a civilian population to be the "moral equivalant" of directly selling arms to a legitimate government for its own defense.
