July 26, 2006 -- JERUSALEM - Israel claimed victory in Hezbollah's southern "capital" yesterday after a battle in Lebanon that uncovered Iranian-made weapons and electronic equipment and left 150 guerrillas dead. Israeli forces found "war rooms" equipped with Iranian surveillance and eavesdropping gear in Bint Jbail, the main Hezbollah stronghold just inside the border.
"The town is completely controlled by us," an Israeli colonel said.
Caches of weapons were also found in Bint Jbail, Israeli officials said.
Mahmoud Komati, deputy chief of Hezbollah's political arm, refused to acknowledge the group was firing Iranian-made missiles into Israel.
"We don't deny nor confirm. We believe where the weapons come from is irrelevant," he said, adding that Hezbollah has weapons made in France, Russia, China and the United States.
"Some of our fighters carry M16s. So you think we buy them from America?" he asked.
The death toll from the two-week war continued to mount, including six Lebanese killed by a bomb in Nebatiyeh and a 15-year-old Arab girl killed by a Hezbollah rocket in northern Israel. At least three U.N. observers were also killed, with one other feared dead. They were from Austria, Canada, China and Finland, U.N. and Lebanese officials said.

exactly...a nightime raid and haul his butt out of there with a pair of flip flops zip tied to his head...call Commie News Network and sister station Al Jazeerafor all to see....
Amen. There is too little of "God" recognition in this battle. This will play out the way He wants it.
"I know what Iran is trying to do. They want to expand this war."
Maybe Iran does, but Syria's shorts are soiled. Iran believes that they won't get hit because they are too far away and have a strategic advantage because of oil.
Well, Israel does not buy Iranian oil and at this point, I think it might be best for Israel to use this to their advantage. Just announce to the UN that if Iran does not pull Hezbollah out of Lebanon and stand down, Israel will ensure that Iran becomes a non-oil producing nation.
B-B-B-but we can't attack the Iranian embassy. It would be an act of war!
Shave half his beard too.
and put a panty on his head.
