Hezbollah targets Israeli collaborators

Odds are they won’t be getting any trials.

Don’t worry, though. UNIFIL is on the case:

The wheelchair-bound Lebanese man had already been stuck just inside the Israeli side of the border for four hours and the Hezbollah intelligence men were ready to take matters into their own hands.

With only a half-full bottle of water with him and Israeli authorities apparently not willing to accept him inside Israel, time was fast running out for the would-be defector.

“There are negotiations going on between our higher-ups in Naqqoura [the southernmost Lebanese city on the Mediterranean coast before Israel and a major UN base] and Israel, but until the Israelis tell us they don’t want him and allow us to bring him back, there’s nothing we can do,” said an Indian United Nations peacekeeper.

Next to a UN jeep, the Hezbollah intelligence men had parked their aging white Mercedes. One of them had flattened himself behind the chassis and was watching the Israeli side through binoculars.

If you come with me, we’ll go in and get that m*********r back,” another Hezbollah man told a member of the international press. “They won’t shoot at a journalist,” he whispered in an aside in Arabic to his colleague.

No word on what happened to the poor guy.

Also, they left out a “*” in “m**********r.”

It’s my job to notice these things.

I would be surprised if the journalist did not go in and get the m**********r.

This makes my stomach churn. These are the kinds of people we are dealing with in this conflict. Mafia to the Nth degree..it almost makes me want to agree with the person talking about maybe we go isolationist. What is the answer in dealing with this kind of mindset? I thought we had a glimmer of hope coming with the comments the past couple of days from PA politicians about the continuing self-inflicted wounds. But HOW does that message get to THESE guys?

These missiles, the website notes, were held in reserve as Hezbollah’s most devastating weapon but were destroyed in the first 34 minutes of the Lebanon war

Israeli intelligence really has its act together. Very impressive.

Not so fast! How do you know he didn’t say “Mothaf***er” — Samuel L. Jackson style?

And just to prevent you from doing the “ambiguous asterisk” schtick on me in return, my asterisks represent the letters “uck”

The first order of business when the Islamofascists regain control, whether in Hamastan/Gaza(Pics), or southern Lebanon, is to put a scare back in the local population
