"I promise we will stick with it and do whatever we can to make it happen," Annan said after a meeting with Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni. (AP)

The man boasts about his will to destroy Israel; The Israeli government didn't pledge to annihilate Lebanon though.

Bottom line: Does Lebanon wants peace or not? Does Hezbollah want peace or not? The rest is irrelevant quibbling.
This was Israels aim with the war:
"It was made clear to us on several occasions that the issue is not freeing the soldiers, but changing the political arena. Olmert made it clear he had no intention of negotiating over any issue related to the war, and the same goes for the rest of the Israeli representatives we met. They were confident of their victory."

How serious do you think they were with Annan? It's just a show of "good will". Sure, the Israelis wants peace with all the arabs but on what conditions? Will the Israelis respect all UN resolutions in a peaceagreement? That is the least any arab country should demand if it is to be called a Just Peace. The Israeli message has rather always been: Taht Sermaiti please...thank you!

So the real bottom line is and has always been, what does Israel want?!
