No ceasefire until the soldiers are released

That's Condoleeza Rice's new way of prolonging Israel's destruction of Lebanon.

It's like saying, there will be no ceasefire until the fighting stops. A ceasefire is supposed to be a way in to negotiations and a solution of the roots of the problem. It's not a sweet that you can hand out to kids who behave well.

Get back on the plane Rice.

A ceasefire is not a necessary condition to enter into negotiations. There must be negotiations that lead to a solution that meets the needs of both Israel and Lebanon before a ceasefire can be called. The negotiations must ignore the needs of the Hezbollah.
