Peace - It would seem that demands by the U.N. Security Council were made before Hezbollah won 18% of the seats in Parliament. Hezbollah is part of the democratically elected, Lebanese government. (Wiki)

Since GWB forced Syria out of Lebanon, how can the U.N. propose that the Lebanese dimantle and replace Hezbollah? I doubt if they have the power to do that even if they have the will (which they don't).

Btw - Both Iran and Syria have said that although they support Hezbollah, they do not supply arms to Hezbollah.

Both Hamas and Hezbollah were chosen by the people in a free election.
