BEIRUT (AFP) - Shiite militant group Hezbollah, locked in fierce battles with Israeli forces in south Lebanon, has demanded an immediate ceasefire and indirect talks for a prisoner exchange after world diplomats failed to agree an instant truce.

Mohamad Raad, leader of Hezbollah's 14-member parliamentary bloc, said: "The position for the Lebanese government is to establish an immediate and complete ceasefire and to start indirect negotiations for a prisoner exchange.
"Anything other than that is not acceptable," he said in a statement, as representatives of 15 nations met in Rome to address the crisis but failed to agree on an immediate ceasefire.
"The (Islamic) Resistance will continue its confrontation of the aggression whatever the Zionists do," he said.
The international crisis conference in Rome vowed to work with "utmost urgency" for a truce.
How is it possible to have negotiations, if one doesn't actually negotiate? Terrorists are so stupid... And people who sympathise with them, are actually dumber than that. Who's the sheep again?

Extremists are like slinkys... Ultimately useless in the grand scheme of things... But still brings a smile to the face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
It also apparently means give nothing take everything.
Im not sure the purpose of the thread, but I agree with what you are saying. There is no room for negotiations with those who wont negotiate..Like I have said before, just talking to those who are willing to give their life, and take other peoples lives, for a "cause" isnt usually gonna work.
Terrorists are extremists, and like it or not, need to be met with extreme action, not words.

See... That's another thing I've put alot of thought into... I mean, just because you have the ability to create death... Does that mean that you actually deserve anything?
It all boils down to "why" they are doing what they are. And frankly, I don't think the terrorists in this case deserve a god damn thing outside of a noose. They aren't fighting for anything worth dieing for IMHO.

I dont know if I made myself unclear, or I have interpretted your post wrongly, but..I dont in anyway accept what they are doing.
Im purely saying that they cannot be reasoned with. So dont.
I dont think they deserve to be for a second. If you look at the broader spectrum of Islamic terrorists, they are usually dying, and killing, for allah. Since we cannot disprove God, it is something you cannot negotiate over.
That to me leaves only the one other possibilty...Action. Words arent gonna do it. I wish they would. I wish Allah could be disproved. (Which personally I think already has been done with theories of evolution etc) But Faith has been placed at the other end of logic, saying you cannot use anything in this world as a disproving of God, because God works outside of Science and logic...How can you argue against something that believers say cannot be disproved? You simply cant.
I dont think the terrorists in this case, or in pretty much most cases deserve anything but a noose. They seemingly started this for nothing. And in the way the world works, for that, they must pay..

Nope... I was just adding on to what you said, not debating anything.

Oh, I think an effort should be made. But in failing it. <shrugs>

Agreed. Rewarding a person for bad behavior, is just going to get more bad behavior.
If terrorists try to get what they want by killing, you sure as hell don't reward that action by "negotiating" and giving them something beneficial to them for doing it. No, they should come down with a case of dead.
