Barak hints at another war with Lebanon
"We cannot accept that a neighboring UN member state should have in its government representatives of a militia that has more than 40,000 rockets," Ehud Barak said Thursday referring to Lebanon's Hezbollah resistance movement.
While claiming that Israel did not strike at Lebanon's infrastructure hard enough during the summer war of 2006, Barak said that Tel Aviv would use all its force in a possible conflict on Israel's northern border.
"If there is a conflict on our northern border, we will use all necessary force," the Israeli minister said, adding that Lebanon's infrastructure was spared as a result of pressure from the United States.
"What happened in the second Lebanon war will not happen again... at the time a message from the United States indicated we must spare Lebanon's infrastructure," he continued.
