It's not as if Israel just came up with the idea of bringing in international troops. This is something that others called for many times before. Apparently, though, without the bombing and the invasion no one considered this worth actually acting upon.
I guess a few rockets launched into Israeli towns just didn't merit attention -- yours included, right?

And I'm sorry, but I don't see how anyone could answer TS's second question with a yes.

I didn't, dipshit.
But -- I repeat -- when was the last time an Arab state said anything negative about Hezbollah?
And what brilliant ideas do you have, by which the sworn enemy of a significant portion of the Muslim world would be able to bolster a moderate alternative to Hezbollah? Simply being seen as favored by Isreal would likely be the kiss of death for any Lebanese party.
