“Israel worried Hezbollah will attack with bomb-laden drone”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “The defense establishment is concerned Hezbollah may use an explosives-laden unmanned aerial vehicle to attack a civilian or military target in northern or central Israel in retaliation for last week’s assassination of it terror chief.
The Israel Air Force has been placed on alert for such a possibility.
To date, Hezbollah has dispatched five Iranian-made drones against Israel, three of them during the Second Lebanon War in August 2006. Two were shot down by the air force, and one crashed. The drones were loaded with dozens of kilograms of high-grade explosives and apparently had been intended to crash in the heavily populated Dan region.
The IDF also has bolstered its forces along the northern border, anticipating Hezbollah may launch a massive rocket attack on the area. However, the army has no specific information about the group’s intentions in this regard. “
WASHINGTON TIMES.com: "U.S. SPONSORS ISLAMIC CONVENTION" by Audrey Hudson (ARTICLE SNIPPET: "The Justice Department is co-sponsoring a convention held by the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) -- an unindicted co-conspirator in an ongoing federal terrorist funding case -- a move that is raising concerns among the Justice's rank and file. Justice lawyers have objected to the affiliation with ISNA, fearing it will undermine the case against the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development in Dallas.") (August 27, 2007)
