but, what CAN the europeans offer that could end this whole ordeal? especially while our country continues to aid and equip israel, and waiving our veto should anyone suggest a policy we don't like - what can the europeans do?

i'm just asking because if i'm going to criticize a certain group, i want to make sure that they truly deserve that criticism. i know what our country's part is - and unfortunately, it's clearly promoting this war rather than seeking a diplomatic solution.
Russia could put pressure upon Iran to quit supplying the Hezbollah and end the violence.

France, Germany, Spain, an other "allies" could put pressure on Israel to quit the violence.

China could put pressure on N Korea not to sell weapons to Iran.

The US could quit selling arms to Israel and only act in advisory position to the UN

The UN could get some freeking guts and put so many European troops down there, it would force a cease fire.

The UN could bring ALL of the playerss around the peace table and hammer out a solution that will be acceptable to all. Those who do not accept land for settlement can go it alone but they run the risk of total destruction by the UN troops.

I realize the UN is no where near up to this task, but they better get real before the enitre Middle East blows up in their face.
