Alarming factlet from the above link:

Second, Iran views Hezbollah as its strategic arm. Iran intends to activate Hezbollah – whose rocket arsenal of 150,000 exceeds the collective total of most European powers – in the event of an Israeli strike on its nuclear facilities.

Maybe Bibi’s speech to Congress in 3 weeks will be what Israel has done, not what it might do about Iran.

The missile strike hit pay dirt and liquidated a dozen Hezbollah and Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps operatives including senior commanders from both organizations. The Iranians, already reeling from the death of Gen. Hassan Shateri in February 2013 as he traveled from Syria to Lebanon, acknowledged the loss of Gen. Mohammad Ali Allahdadi, a ranking officer believed to be a ballistic missile expert and indispensable to Iranian operations in Syria and Lebanon.

Hizbollah IS Iran in many arenas. Now they say Hizbollah is behind the palace coup in Yemen! Without Hizbollah, Assad in Syria would have been eliminated a long time ago. Iran and Hizbollah are part of the axis of evil. Russia is helping them both. Obama is sucking his thumb in the meantime...

And Ronald Reagan stupidly allowed Hizbollah to escape retribution after the 1983 Beirut barracks attack, because his traitorous SecDef Casper Weinberger halted the order to bomb them. Reagan should have fired Weinberger and placed him under arrest for that action -- which has proved very costly in hindsight, along with Reagan's hysterical demand for Israel to withdraw from Lebanon, based on a faked photo of a dead "Palestinian" baby that James Baker showed him (which turned out to be a Druze baby killed by the PLO). RR bears great responsibility for not allowing Israel to strangle the Islamonazi baby in its crib.
