Peacekeeping Force Needed in Southern Lebanon
It was reported on 3 August 2006 that Israeli Prime Minister Olmert articulated what it will take to resolve the security problem in southern Lebanon. The weak Lebanese government is unable to control the use of its territory by a terrorist organization for attacks on the defacto keeper of civil order in a neighboring state. Therefore, it is reasonable that a 15,000-man international peacekeeping force be imposed on that region to prevent its continuance as a base for outlaw operations against the state of Israel.
Regardless of the politics of the right of Israel to exist and the effect of Israel’s creation on the land and freedom of Palestinian Arabs, terrorist activities against the Israeli state threaten the human rights of its citizens. The international community is delinquent if it does not take steps to stamp out those outlaw actions, coupled with steps to impose an equitable and lasting solution on the region that satisfies the needs of civility in that part of the world.
