 U.N. and Israel OK Peace Deal; Lebanon in FavorPosted on Aug 11, 2006
The U.N. Security Council adopted a resolution that calls for an end to the war between Israel and Hezbollah and authorizes 15,000 U.N. peacekeepers to help Lebanese troops take control of south Lebanon as Israel withdraws. Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert endorsed the deal, and the Lebanese cabinet looks set to do so as well.

Will Israel abide by UN Resolution 242?:
Resolution 242 (November 22, 1967): Termination of all claims or states of belligerency and respect for and acknowledgement of the sovereignty, territorial integrity and political independence of every State in the area. Calls on Israel’s neighbors to end the state of belligerency and calls upon Israel to reciprocate by withdraw its forces from land claimed by other parties in 1967 war. Interpreted commonly today as calling for the Land for peace principle as a way to resolve Arab-Israeli conflict.
Here are some more:
Resolution 248: ” . . . ‘condemns’ Israel for its massive attack on Karameh in Jordan”.
Resolution 250: ” . . . ‘calls’ on Israel to refrain from holding military parade in Jerusalem”.
Resolution 251: ” . . . ‘deeply deplores’ Israeli military parade in Jerusalem in defiance of Resolution 250”.
Resolution 252: ” . . . ‘declares invalid’ Israel’s acts to unify Jerusalem as Jewish capital”.
Resolution 256: ” . . . ‘condemns’ Israeli raids on Jordan as ‘flagrant violation”.
Resolution 259: ” . . . ‘deplores’ Israel’s refusal to accept UN mission to probe occupation”.
Resolution 262: ” . . . ‘condemns’ Israel for attack on Beirut airport”.

If the purpose of the resolution is to have U.N. forces is to do the work of Israel forces, its not going to work. Neither the U.N. nor the Israeli forces can eliminate the Hezbullah or other similar organization fighting the Israel’ occupation of arab land.
