This rumour has been running in the Middle East all week - that Israel is preparing to cross the border to South Lebanon. It seems incredible - but these are strange days.

Hezbollah has robust weapons stashes up there. Looks like Israel has finally
had it with terrorist organizations. I don’t blame them.

Until the Iranian mullahs and others who back terrorist organizations and pay them for their attacks are confronted and rebuked this will continue.

While I believe that it is 100% necessary for Israel to destroy Hezbollah in the same way that they are in the process of destroying Hamas, I fail to see the obsession with western leaders announcing in advance what they are going to do. One of the keys to success in military operations is to not tell your enemy what you’re going to do in advance. I would think that a five-year-old would know this, let alone someone who is the defense minister of an advanced nation.
