"We have to clarify a root cause of the instability in the Middle East - and that's Hezbollah and Hezbollah's relationship with Syria, and Hezbollah's relationship to Iran, and Syria's relationship to Iran.Therefore in order to solve this problem it is really important for the world to address the root cause. We of course have continued discussions with Israel. All sovereign nations have the right to defend themselves against terrorist attacks. However we hope that there is restraint."

STORYLINE
World leaders at the Group of Eight summit urged Israel on Sunday to show some restraint after four days of steady, deadly bombing against its neighbour Lebanon.
"All sovereign nations have the right to defend themselves against terrorist attacks. However we hope that there is restraint." US President George W. Bush said.
World leaders opened their first G-8 working session expressing confidence that they will emerge with a consensus position calling for peace - despite differing views on who is to blame.
Bush also said the international community must address the root causes of the violence taking place in the Mideast.
"We have to clarify a root cause of the instability in the Middle East - and that's Hezbollah and Hezbollah's relationship with Syria, and Hezbollah's relationship to Iran, and Syria's relationship to Iran," he said.
Israeli warplanes began striking Lebanon after Hezbollah guerrillas captured two Israeli soldiers on Wednesday in a cross-border raid into Israel.
The deadly bombings continued into Sunday as Hezbollah fired barrages of rockets ever deeper into Israel, killing nine people in the city of Haifa.
Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert warned of "far-reaching consequences."
French President Jacques Chirac, however, has questioned whether Israel's response to the capture of its soldiers went too far.
But as they began their meeting on Sunday, Bush and Chirac tried to present a united front.
Lebanon and that militias there disarm - a reference to Hezbollah.
