The Economist, in an article about Lebanon, says that the country is divided but that there is no will for confrontation:

Yet it may be that, almost as a perverse result of all these pressures, Mr Siniora’s government will survive. The Lebanese have experienced disaster before, and few wish to go through it again. The endurance, so far, of the ceasefire with Israel, despite Shia dislike of the presence of thousands of UN peacekeepers, and despite Israeli violations of Lebanese airspace, is one sign of a slackened will for confrontation.
