Funniest part is that if we *did send troops, your entire argument would be "we have too much other stuff to do why are we in another war?"... horrible how so many people have such a negative outlook on everything.

Actually I think we should send a small force to the region after we tell everyone there to knock it the fuck off. Maybe defending Lebanon from Israel would actually win us some points in the muslim world (because let's face it...Israel has U.S. weapons and Lebanon is lucky to us WWII era shit). I think it's sad that we didn't draft the resolution first. In fact, it took us forever to even ASK for a cease fire. This is most likely because Condolezza Rice is a dumb cunt. That, and because people here are so scared to say anything at all against Israel for fear of being called anti-semetic they just keep their mouths shut. I mean, did you see Fox News in the weeks after Israel invaded Lebanon? Anyone who even questioned the war had "Anti-Semetic?" in the little banner at the bottom of the screen.
