Absolutely correct analysis, I'd say. But he gets half a dog treat for countering Nicholas Burns' silly assertion.
There already is an international force in South Lebanon. Its called UNIFIL. It does absolutely nothing, and in fact seems to have participated in the kidnapping of 3 Israeli soldiers a few years back.
The international force will allow Hizbullah to attack Israel and then stop Israel from responding to the attacks.
The only way the war will stop is when Hizbullah is destroyed.
International troops in Lebanon are about as useful as international troops in Rwanda or Bosnia or Sudan. They're there to watch people kill each other. Then they write some reports and criticize the Americans, Jews or whomever is whiter. Israel's demand the Lebanon police its own border is an implied threat to Iran that it can't fight a proxy war against Israel.
I really wish some of you could at least pretend to demonstrate a level of thought beyond that of 12 year olds and/or crazy trust radicals from UC Davis or some other equally retarded place.
