As of two days ago, the count of Lebanese dead was at 900. Nine hundred! How Israel can do this anyone is beyond my comprehension. The murder of innocent civilians must stop.
And now, the U.S. and France have reached a compromise on a Security Council resolution calling for a ceasefire, but again it contains the American language about a "sustainable peace." What is needed is a stop to the fighting now! Once the fighting stops negotiations can proceed. But the demand that a ceasefire can only occur when there can be a sustainable peace is simply a means to make sure that there is not peace. The conditions for a future, long term peace, can not be created when there is fighting going on. That should be obvious to everyone.
