Some WONDERFUL news out of the UN today: the French Army (yep, the dudes in blue who have hit zero-for-every-single-war-since-the-American-Revolution) will be leading the multi-national UN peacekeeping force in south Lebanon.
I’m sure this pleases no one so much as Hassan Nasrallah and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. If either of those guys were to choose a country to lead the UN force, I suspect France would be right at the top of the list. Maybe just behind Chad, Venezuela, and Myanmar, but up there for sure.
No word on how the Froggies are going to disarm Hezbollah. Probably, they will taunt Hezbollah gunmen mercilessly with zair reedeeculous Frensh assents. Which should work, right?
What’s the over/under on this cease fire? I have 10 days, but I’m an optimist.
Don’t make any major vacation plans in Northern Israel anytime soon. Unless you enjoy shrapnel, of course.
