Dore Gold: Give UNIFIL a Mandate to Clean Out Southern Lebanon
(Jerusalem Post) The UN Security Council needs to enforce Resolution 1701 from 2006 to clean out the illegal weapons held by Hizbullah in southern Lebanon, president of the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs and former Israel Foreign Ministry director-general Dore Gold told the Hudson Institute in Washington on Tuesday. "There are about 200 Shiite villages in southern Lebanon. Many residents have prohibited weapons in their homes. They accept payment for it or are simply too frightened to refuse the terrorists' request," he said.
