Message In A Bottle

Well, the G-8 leaders all huddled up over the weekend and haggled back and forth before finally sending Germany’s Angela Merkel out to deliver the message to the masses. Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Hezbullah: Give the captured soldiers back to the Jews, stop shelling Israel with rockets. Israel: stop raining destruction down on their pointy little heads, pull back from Gaza and let their government officials out of jail.

Yep, that oughta do it. Turn off the war drums, leash the hounds of war, beat those swords into plowshares and let’s all sing Koombayah. Who are they kidding? Hamas and Hezbullah have stirred up a hornet’s nest and the stingers are out. Let’s just get this over with once and for all and be done with it. It’s time for somebody to just beat the living crap out of the Arabs so we can get some peace and quiet. I, for one, am sick and tired of all the racket coming from the Middle East. Fifty years is long enough to hold a grudge. Get over it!

You can read the full text of the message sent down from Mount Olympus by simply clicking “Continue Reading”. I still think Zeus and Ares need to just drop a few lightning bolts on the Pallies. They can always claim it was a mysterious meteor strike ....

See More Below The Fold

Today, we the G-8 leaders, express our deepening concern about the situation in the Middle East, in particular the rising civilian casualties on all sides and the damage to infrastructure. We are united in our determination to pursue efforts to restore peace. We offer our full support for the U.N. Secretary General’s mission presently in the region.

The root cause of the problems in the region is the absence of a comprehensive Middle East peace.

The immediate crisis results from efforts by extremist forces to destabilize the region and to frustrate the aspirations of the Palestinian, Israel and Lebanese people for democracy and peace. In Gaza, elements of Hamas launched rocket attacks against Israeli territory and abducted an Israeli soldier. In Lebanon, (Hezbollah), in violation of the Blue Line, attacked Israel from Lebanese territory and killed and captured Israeli soldiers, reversing the positive trends that began with the Syrian withdrawal in 2005, and undermining the democratically elected government of Prime Minister Fuad Saniora.

These extremist elements and those that support them cannot be allowed to plunge the Middle East into chaos and provoke a wider conflict. The extremists must immediately halt their attacks.

It is also critical that Israel, while exercising the right to defend itself, be mindful of the strategic and humanitarian consequences of its actions. We call upon Israel to exercise utmost restraint, seeking to avoid casualties among innocent civilians and damage to civilian infrastructure and to refrain from acts that would destabilize the Lebanese government.

The most urgent priority is to create conditions for a cessation of violence that will be sustainable and lay the foundation for a more permanent solution. This, in our judgment, requires:

* The return of the Israeli soldiers in Gaza and Lebanon unharmed.

* An end to the shelling of Israeli territory.

* An end to Israeli military operations and the early withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza.

* The release of the arrested Palestinian ministers and parliamentarians.

The framework for resolving these disputes is already established by international consensus.

In Lebanon, U.N. Security Council Resolutions 1559 and 1680 address the underlying conditions that gave rise to the crisis. We urge the U.N. Security Council to develop a plan for the full implementation of these resolutions.

We extend to the Government of Lebanon our full support in asserting its sovereign authority over all its territory in fulfillment of UNSCR 1559. This includes the deployment of Lebanese Armed Forces to all parts of the country, in particular the South, and the disarming of militias. We would welcome an examination by the U.N. Security Council of the possibility of an international security/monitoring presence.

We also support the initiation of a political dialogue between Lebanese and Israeli officials on all issues of concern to both parties. In addition, we will support the economic and humanitarian needs of the Lebanese people, including the convening at the right time of a donors conference.

In Gaza, the disengagement of Israel provided an opportunity to move a further step toward a two-state solution under the Road Map. All Palestinian parties should accept the existence of Israel, reject violence, and accept all previous agreements and obligations, including the Road Map. For its part, Israel needs to refrain from unilateral acts that could prejudice a final settlement and agree to negotiate in good faith.

Our goal is an immediate end to the current violence, a resumption of security cooperation and of a political engagement both among Palestinians and with Israel. This requires:

* An end to terrorist attacks against Israel.

* A resumption of the efforts of President (Mahmoud) Abbas to ensure that the Palestinian government complies with the Quartet principles.

* Immediate expansion of the temporary international mechanism for donors established under the direction of the Quartet.

* Israeli compliance with the Agreement on Movement and Access of November 2005 and action on other steps to ease the humanitarian plight of the people of Gaza and the West Bank.

* Resumption of security cooperation between Palestinians and Israelis.

* Action to ensure that the Palestinian security forces comply with Palestinian law and with the Roadmap, so that they are unified and effective in providing security for the Palestinian people.

* Resumption of dialogue between Palestinian and Israeli political officials.

These proposals are our contribution to the international effort underway to restore calm to the Middle East and provide a basis for progress towards a sustainable peace, in accordance with the relevant U.N. Security Council Resolutions. The Quartet will continue to play a central role. The G-8 welcomes the positive efforts of Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Jordan as well as other responsible regional actors to return the region to peace. We look forward to the report of the Secretary General’s mission to the Security Council later this week which we believe could provide a framework for achieving our common objectives.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong

Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing

Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:

Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
