Hezbollah flies unmanned plane over Israel

Just more kindling to start the fire.

It's a three way cage match: Iran, Israel, and the US. Iraq is the referee that gets beat up by everyone.

If Israel can invade Lebanon airspace then is Hezbollah not allowed to invade Israel airspace? (I don't think Lebanon supports Hezbollah, but the government of Lebanon is said to be controlled by Israel).

In thought it was under the influence of Syria.

I think 'no' would be the correct answer. I also think that if you replace "a terrorist" with "any", 'no' still would be the correct answer.

Exactly. Every time a group attacks another group from now on, it will be America's fault

Not America's fault...just that America will be such a hypocrite if it raises a stink over it.

Actually, it would be Bush's fault, specifically

BTW, this was mentioned in another thread with a poor title - Link

that whole argument is so bad. Every attack from here on out is America's fault? You sound like a European blaming everything on America, or on Bush.

Where did you read that Lebanon's army is controlled by Israel?

Maybe you should change the media source you pay attention to 😉

There is this unit called the SLA. Do they not exist? The SLA is old news?

This appears to have ceased to exist with Israel's pullout in 2000. I think your information is simply badly out of date. Unless I'm missing a detail, Lebanon is now completely controlled by Lebanese military units that are essentially under the control of Syria.

In May 2000, Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) withdrew from Israel's self-described security zone in southern Lebanon after 22 years of military occupation. Sources indicate that although the IDF intended to conduct an orderly hand-over of control of these areas to the SLA, the situation became chaotic with many residents of the area fleeing to Israel in fear of retribution from the Hezbollah and the Lebanese military (ICRC 9 March 2001, Harel 23 May 2000). As reported in Ha'aretz, a leading Israeli daily: "In less than 24 hours [after the start of the IDF pull-out], Hezbollah took control of the central part of the security zone and large parts of the western zone, mostly without firing a shot... SLA officers and their families arrived at border crossings and asked for asylum in Israel" (Harel 23 May 2000).

Nice fix 😉

You do know that the SLA was an anti-Lebanon militia, right?

To say that the SLA's existence is proof that " lebanon's army is all controlled by Israel" is a pretty big jump in logic...
