The thought has crossed my mind that these nine ships and the cruise ships are HUGE targets...would the Hezzies be so stupid as to take a shot at one of these ships?

What kinds or classes of warships I wonder. Could they assist the Israelis if Syria elects to use WMDs or attempts to re-occupy Lebanon?
