Israel seizes 3 Hizbollah members in Lebanon raid
Reuters ^ | Aug 1

BAALBEK, Lebanon, Aug 2 (Reuters) - Israeli airborne commandos snatched at least three Hizbollah members in an attack on the eastern Lebanese city of Baalbek overnight, security sources said on Wednesday.

They identified the men as Hussein Nasrallah, Hussein al-Burji and Ahmed al-Ghotah and described them as low ranking members of the group. The captured Hussein Nasrallah has the same name as a key Hizbollah official.

"but I'm not about to call them "His Majesty" or "Her Majesty".

Remember some years ago when Queen Lizzie was visiting a housing project in the US and one of the residents walked tight up to her and hugged her? Talk about a "holier than thou" moment!

The hospital was not a real hospital but a Hezbollah command center.

Former hospital, was about to point it out too, as I'm sure the Israeli's will be accused to attacking sick patients, etc.
