Negotiations include indirect intervention of the USA and Lebanese govts to try and alleviate the escalation and then perhaps disarm Hizbollah properly.

Okay, I'll explain it again. Under the Geneva convention, a country that has POW in their custody, is REQUIRED to retain those prisoners until the war is over.
It doesn't matter WHO the prisoners are, but the fact is, they are POW.
And if you want War between the West and Middle East, bring it on, we'll see how far your hero's get.
