IAF attempts to assasinate Hizbullah leadership [Hezbollah Scumbags Turn to Pink Vapor??]
Jerusalem Post ^ | 7/19/06 | YAAKOV KATZ AND AP

Posted on 07/19/2006 4:59:50 PM PDT by Enchante

IAF fighter jets dropped over 20 tons in bombs late Wednesday night on a Hizbullah bunker, possibly the hiding place of the group's leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah, in the Bourj al-Barajneh refugee camp in southeast Beirut. It was still unclear who was in the bunker at the time and what their fate was, but IDF sources said the bunker was totally destroyed and that all that was left was a crater.

The IDF obtained intelligence information late Wednesday night that Hizbullah leaders possibly including Nasrallah had taken refuge inside the bunker. A wave of aircraft immediately took to the air and dropped 23 tons of explosives on the bunker.

IDF sources would not confirm that Nasrallah was in the bunker at the time, but said that high-ranking Hizbullah leaders were inside, and that it appeared that the attack was successful.

Ping. Sounds like there's a good chance Israel may have nailed Nasrallah, or at least a good bunch of other Hezzie-Nazi scumbags.

I am not a big fan of widespread bombing of civilian infrastructure. But I am a fan of targeted assassination attempts of terrorist leaders. The world would be a better place without "Sheikh" Nasrallah.

Hizbullah claims the target was a "mosque under construction"... neglects to mention the baby-formula factory and the workshop making crutches for the disabled that were also on the grounds. Yeah, right. Now we know for sure that it was the right bunker.

Well, that either 20 MK 84 2000 pound bombs or 80 500 pound bombs. I suspect the former. It certainly shows they're earnest.

"Hizbullah announced that they did not get Nasrallah"

Sure, but unless/until we see the bearded pigface speaking in a context that is unquestionably post-bombing, such statements from the Hezzie-Nazis mean precisely less than squat. If Nasrallah and/or other top leaders WERE dead and the Hezzies were scrambling to figure out what to do next, the last thing they want is for the fact of such death(s) to become known. Hell, they may try to prop him up as a leader image for a few weeks or months, as long as it's of any propaganda use to them.

I don't know if the bearded sack of feces is dead or alive, but I sure wouldn't take any statements from the Hezzie-Nazis as any kind of evidence.

France tried to surrender to Israel, but then they realized they might as well just surrender to the armed might of the Lebanese government....... that was before Jacques al-Chirac decided he could just fly to Mecca and surrender there, once and for all.....

Last time they thought they got him that fat Nasarallah showed up on TV smiling and taunting. So far he has not shown up. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

From the article: "Hizbullah has a headquarters compound in Bourj al-Barajneh that is off limits to the Lebanese police and army, so security officials could not confirm the strike."

Lebanon is allowing Hezbollah to make rules about where police and army can go?

That is very scary.
