I've Been Thinking:
France just announced that they will be supplying Lebanon with 100 missiles by the end of February.
Why on earth would France do such a thing?
Both the United States and Israel strongly oppose this transfer of missiles to Lebanon.
But the French are doing it anyway.
The French believe that, given the tensions in Lebanon right now, the best way to stabilize the country is to bolster the standing government against Hezbollah. Hezbollah might very well attempt to take over Lebanon if the United Nations indicts their commanders for assassinating former Lebanese Prime Minster Rafik Hariri.
The obvious problem is that Hezbollah is stronger than the government's army.
That means that these 100 missiles will probably end up in the hands of Hezbollah.
And that is very dangerous.
