Hizbullah Vows to Open Second Front in Gaza Conflict

(IsraelNN.com) Hizbullah terrorists have vowed to open a second front against Israel in the north in retaliation for the IDF military operation against Hamas terrorists in Gaza.

Terrorist chief Hassan Nasrallah issued a statement on Hizbullah's Al-Manar television station Sunday, vowing that "northern Israel will burn as Gaza is burning." Nasrallah rarely appears in person; he speaks via a video hook-up from his hideout due to fears of assassination by Israeli agents, following the 2006 Second Lebanon War.

Hizbullah officials were quoted in a number of Arabic-language publications on Saturday warning that they would not permit Israel to attack Gaza without retaliating.

Last week seven Katyusha rockets were discovered primed and ready for launching in southern Lebanon, located near the northern border of Israel. All seven were aimed at targets in the Jewish State.

I think Israel was complacent—they caught Israel off guard with their preparations and tactics. Even so, Hezbollah had all but collapsed militarily at then end and South Lebanon was in ruins. If this happens again, Israel (should) be much better prepared. And the price of oil is down, so Iran can’t help as much in the rebuilding effort.

"The Hezz are going to take the bait".

You are right my friend.

Israel has decided to provoke any and all enemies with the ultimate insult. They will COMPLETELY destroy all Iranian/Syrian proxies in the region...and DARE Iran or Syria to interfere.
