Syria and Iran Attempt Lebanese Parliament Takeover Using Puppets!

Three Article excerpts in the July 13 Jerusalem Center for Daily Affairs Daily Alert (Haaretz, Lebanon Daily Star, YNet News) and one from DEBKAfile, do seem to be setting the Stage for two actions – (1) A take over of the existing Lebanese Government, and (2) An eventual war with Israel.
It appears that Syria and Iran will use Hizbullah, and many of the Palestine Refugee Camps scattered across Lebanon, to unseat Lebanon’s government with weapons and men smuggled into the Sunni Camps and Shiite Hizbullah.

DEBKAfile reports: Palestinian Islamists pound northern Lebanon with Syrian-supplied Katyusha rockets – a new departure in their revolt against Beirut
July 13, 2007, 2:01 PM (GMT+02:00)
Our military sources report the pro-Damascus Palestinian factions fighting the Lebanese army for two months in the northern Nahr al-Bared camp took their first delivery of rockets this week from the Syrian army. The Katyushas were smuggled across the border through the east Lebanese Beqaa Valley, the first items of heavy hardware Syria has ever supplied to its Palest inian surrogates
in Lebanon.
The Lebanese news agency reports three salvoes of 11 rockets fired from the Palestinian camp near Tripoli Friday after two months of clashes with Lebanese forces.
Five landed on the plains of Arqa and Beit Hadara in the northern Akkar province, three more in the Minieh and Deir Emar districts and another three crashed on to the highway linking Lebanon to Syria. At the same time, Fatah al-Islam terrorists launched an attack on a Lebanese position outside the camp and lost 15 men.
Lebanese correspondents describe fires and damaged house and vehicles in North Lebanese villages as reminiscent of the scenes in northern Israel after Hizballah’s 34-day Katyusha barrage last year. No casualties have so far been reported.
Bashar Assad, who has been pumping reinforcements and arms to the Palestinian groups holed up in the northern Lebanese camp, clearly has no compunctions about arming them to blast the civilians of northern Lebanon, to help demonstrate that the Siniora government and Lebanese army cannot provide the country with security.
Among the pro-Syrian Palestinian terror groups fighting alongside radical Fatah Islam is Nayef Hawatmeh’s Democratic Front, which did not stop him from asking Israel this week for permission to enter the West Bank
Kowtowing to Hizbullah
Zvi Bar’el
The dilemma of whether Hizbullah emerged from the Second Lebanon War strengthened or weakened has been resolved by France.
This weekend, Hizbullah figures will arrive in France to conduct a “national Lebanese dialog” under French supervision.
This is the first time Hizbullah has been invited to France as a political entity equal to the other factions, for a meeting intended to find a solution to Lebanon’s political future. (Ha’aretz)
A Divine Victory for Disinformation: Questions about the Veracity of Lebanese Polls about Hizbullah
Michael Young
One year after the summer 2006 war, we’re not sure whether to celebrate Hizbullah’s “divine victory” or bemoan the destruction of our country and its economy.
That disconnect reflects the larger disconnect between Hizbullah and the rest of Lebanese society.
Soon after the war began, a spectacular bit of disinformation surfaced when the Beirut Center for Research published a poll that allegedly showed overwhelming support for Hizbullah.
Unfortunately, rare were the correspondents who could read Arabic and the question put to respondents: “Do you support the Resistance’s opposition to the Israeli aggression against Lebanon?” More loaded a question would have required a firearms license, its answer obvious in advance, particularly when Lebanon was being bombed.

Next War with Hizbullah Inevitable
Majdi Halabi
Nothing has changed in south Lebanon. The entire region still belongs to Hizbullah and nothing happens there without its approval.
The money available to Hizbullah there is doing its job, and
the southern villages show absolute loyalty to Hizbullah and to Nasrallah. Even weddings are coordinated with Hizbullah so that no “undesirable songs” are played that praise another leader except for Nasrallah. Recently, many Hizbullah flags were hung on 10-meter high flagpoles under the open eyes of UNIFIL and Lebanese troops.
There is no doubt Hizbullah is preparing for another war against Israel, with direct Syrian and Iranian military backing.
