I believe that the Lebanese Army with their show room condition M-113 mobile coffins  er.. APCs should be rearmed with state of the art weapons and be given the task of removing Hezbollah from Southern Lebanon.  The Syrians were given the boot, now it's the time for the Iranians to be shown the door, and as for the supporters of Hezbollah in the Lebanese parliament annd the electorates who voted for them, or what's left of them thanks to the Israeli Air Force, who should be forced to choose - a Sh'ite state or the state of Lebanon.    The Principles of Applied Marksmanship can be used later.   If they do that then a mini-Marshall Plan should be introduced to aid a fledgling democracy.  Another buffer zone is created for israel, the Lebanese Army becomes a force of peace, and the US and other supporters of a new Lebanon get huge brownie points.  And did I mention Iran and Syria get a punch in the nose to boot.

My thoughts anyway.

Makes more sense than most of the ideas I've heard.
