1) In 1978, Israel invaded southern Lebanon in order to end PLO terrorist attacks against Israeli civilians. The US forced the Israelis to withdraw, and then UNIFIL was plunked in southern Lebanon.[12] The terrorist attacks continued and even increased.

2) In 1982, the Israelis again invaded southern Lebanon to halt the terrorist attacks. The US again intervened to protect the terrorists, prevented Israel from destroying the PLO, and provided the PLO with a US military escort to its new home in Tunis.[13]

3) In 1996, when Hezbollah -- the terrorist force created to replace the PLO in southern Lebanon -- forced the Israelis to counterattack, the US moved with blinding speed to produce an Orwellian ‘ceasefire’ that prevented Israel from crossing to destroy Hezbollah, and which allowed Hezbollah to keep firing at the Israelis.[14]

4) And now, in 2006, the ‘solution’ to the latest escalation of Hezbollah violence against Israeli civilians, which forced even Ehud Olmert’s government to retaliate, is more of the same: more UNIFIL, the force that has allowed Iran and Syria’s Hezbollah to grow and take over Lebanon, while firing at Israeli civilians the whole time.
