The name was a faux honorific to the "A team's" best fighters, trained in the Bekaa Valley, where such WMD's have been said to have been hidden, a lethal force crossing the eastern portion of the Litani to repel Israeli troops, a microcosm of the ill they might hope to use to wipe "U.S." out.

Oh, I understand now. Headwaters of the Litani are to the east, in the Bekaa. A use of Saddam's long-rumored stash, in other words. I've suspected for some time that we'd be working towards the Bekaa for just this reason, "we" meaning the US and allies.
