Hizbollah says it can still strike any spot in Israel

Hizbollah's missiles can reach any spot in Israel, the Lebanese guerrilla group's chief said in remarks aired months after the United Nations beefed up its peacekeeping force in south Lebanon.

About 1,200 Lebanese and 157 Israelis were killed in a 34-day war between the Iran-backed group and Israel which began after Hizbollah guerrillas seized two Israeli soldiers in a cross-border raid on July 12, 2006.

"In July and August (2006), there was no place in occupied Palestine which was out of the reach of the resistance missiles," Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah told Al Jazeera television.

"Tel Aviv or elsewhere, we were certain that we could reach any corner or spot in occupied Palestine and now we are certain that we can reach them," Nasrallah said.

I dont doubt it - with their level of Iranian support and the lack of response to that from the civilized world this is the inevitable consequence.

With missiles fired, cowardly as usual, from civilian locales. ....especially apt. complexes.

About 1,200 Lebanese and 157 Israelis were killed in a 34-day war

I'd like to know how many of those 1200 were Hezbollah. I suspect quite a bit.

Israel needs to do another “Yassin lost his head” stike on that guy. All they have to do is follow pro-terrorist media (BBC) around, they’ll lead Israel’s strike team to him eventually. Seems he can’t go long without opening his mouth to media.

IDF Missiles can reach Hamas sponsors. Be they in Saudi, Syria or Iran.

Generally speaking, yes. But.. Iran can just barely reach Israel with a handful of conventionally armed missiles. Israel can reach Iran with a good number and variety of conventional weapons and with the nukes of the Sampson Option.
