New standards of battle. Are you kidding me? So Israel, which has the most powerful army in the region, wants Hizbullah to disarm. Israel wants its enemy to be disarmed so that in the next battle, the Israeli military can face a defenseless and helpless civilian population in South Lebanon. The UN, EU, US, and the rest support Israel's request; that Israel should be allowed to disarm its enemies so that the Israeli military can perform courageously against unarmed Arab civilians. So the Israeli military can do really well in battle provided the enemy is disarmed.
