this is reasonable, and i would support it, but how is this enforced?

the un won't enforce it, it's proven it. the french won't enforce it.

the only way to enforce it is for israel to occupy the region south of the litani and will hezbollah agree to that?

what israel appear to be trying to do is actually push hezbollah north of the awaali river, which is north of not just the ancient hebrew-canaanite city of tyre but also the ancient hebrew-canaanite city of sidon. it's not clear if they intend to occupy up to the litani and demand demilitarization between the litani and awaali or actually push all the way to the awaali, but how can you blame them for pushing beyond the previous un resolution when the previous un resolution was not enforced?

should they ask for another un resolution that won't be enforced?

whether what they do is supportable in the end will depend on the precise actions but i actually have a hard time criticizing israel for annexing any region that is historically considered to be phoenecia because while the arguments are obtuse and arcane and awkward, they're also basically correct. the phoenecians were basically jews, which is why the romans treated the jews so poorly, which has set off centuries of persecution.

i just wish they'd try to assimilate the palestinians back into israel rather than try to get rid of them. they're closer to the ancient hebrews than anybody else.

i had and have a strong case on appeal, but this awful bitch decided to show up and "manage" my case, and she's actually horribly mismanaging it by producing emotional responses to filings she doesn't like, etc. this woman seems to suffer from a mental imbalance of some sort, but i have no ability to get rid of her.

i'm going to need to appeal on procedural grounds in an attempt to throw her off the case.

but it's clear enough that i'm not getting through this bitch to an actual court date and that's putting the situation in jeopardy.

to be clear: i haven't had anything heard in court yet. a number of motions have been rescheduled. i think i'd win a hearing. but, this justice is behaving improperly in attacking me out of spite because she doesn't like my filings, on an emotional or ideological level, and is basically engineering a situation that i can't win, forcing me to try to get around her.

if i can't get around her, i don't have another solution; i'm going to have to pack up and get this stuff out of here into storage and sleep in a hotel for a while.
