Those tuna secondaries can be quite intense.

It is proof that Hezbolah has their version of the "Ho Chi Minh Trail". I was right.

No pro-Hezbollah barf alert yet? I'll do it.

PRO-HEZBOLLAH MEGA BARF ALERT

The guy may be a traitor, but it does tell us how Hezbollah is being re-armed.

Around them hurried men with walkie-talkies and cellphones, furtively glancing at sounds of war above.

They worked with precision -- everyone had a job, hardly a movement was wasted.

And they worked with speed -

After all, it's what you would expect from a MILITARY operation.

I wish I could get some of those "Menacing" Israeli leaflets
to go with my peaceful Hezb'ullah Katyusha rockets.

"It is proof that Hezbolah has their version of the "Ho Chi Minh Trail". I was right."

Except that this one's not unassailable because of political pantywaists. We all knew that Hezbollah needed to get resupplied somehow--it's not like supplies are going to fall from the sky. Chances are this is just one of many supply routes they have.

Anthony Shadid and the Washington Post really gave Hezballah a head job with this little POS story.

I agree with you that Hezbollah will have many ways to re-supply.

No, no, no.

We should thank "Tony" for the excellent intelligence he just provided to the IDF on Hezbollah operations. And since the "Newspaper of Record" just published a confirmation of their methods of operation, there can be little dispute that attacking just about anybody carrying anything south of the Litani River can be considered a legitimate attack on Hezbollah resupply operations.

Good job, Tony and Washington Post! Keep reporting operational details of Israel's enemies. Nice to see the shoe on the other foot for a change.

I agree.Now the IDF can attack these targets now they are now public record as to their locations.

The IDF can thank the Washington Post for the information.

I wonder of the reporter gave them all a medal and offered to bear their children.

I think when the IDF reads this report, they will be sending him an "Thank You" note for writing this article.

This article is an IDF intelligence officer and American intelligence officer dream.
