Syria, Iran, and Hizbollah Analyze Israeli Military Actions!
July 21, 2006

Rest assured that before Hizbollah Leader Nasrallah followed Iran and Syria’s orders to cross the border to capture Israeli soldiers for hostage exchange, there were several objectives these three had in mind as goals of the action they were carrying out, which were:
1. To divert the G-8 nations away from making Iran’s nuclear program the main topic of discussion at
the G-8 meeting.
2. To Take the heat off Hamas in the Gaza Strip by creating two fronts.
3. To obtain the release of a large number of terrorists in Israeli jails.
4. To test the Israeli population’s resolve against making concessions.
5. To cause Syria’s part in the recent assassination of a former Lebanese Prime Minister to fade into antiquity.
6. To analyze the Israeli military tactics employed against them if a war did break out, and to develop future war contingency counter measures to be employed in a similar Jihad they know is coming.

Syria Resupplying Hizb’allah
Numerous missiles intercepted en route from Damascus
By Ryan Jones
July 19, 2006
While Israel is working to eliminate Hizb’allah’s ability to make war, the regime of Syrian dictator Bashar Assad is attempting to resupply the battered terrorist organization, validating Western claims of Damascus’ active sponsorship of regional terror.
IDF Operations Branch Head Maj.-Gen. Gadi Eisenkot told reporters Tuesday that Syrian elements are at this moment smuggling weapons into Lebanon.
Israel’s Air Force managed to intercept a number of trucks transporting missiles earmarked for Hizb’allah.
General Eisenkot said it is extremely naive to believe the shipments are being made without the knowledge of Syria’s leadership.
“These are rockets that belong to the Syrian army. You can’t find them in the Damascus market.”
While Eisenkot stressed Israel is not acting against Syria at this time, evidence of Damascus’ active participation ratcheted up fears that this war may broaden sooner rather than later.
Israel’s Foreign Ministry issued a statment Monday warning that anything or anyone facilitating Hizb’allah’s ability to threaten the Jewish state is a legitimate target.
“Anything that facilitates and serves Hizbullah, in terms of the real and tangible threat it poses to Israel, is a legitimate target.”

Little Nasrallah went out to Play,
Sending Rockets Israel’s Way,
But when Israel’s Bombs hit the Clay,
It was just not Nasrallah’s Day!
But Little Nasrallah, Syria, and Iran’s battle tacticians have gotten a good preview of how the next attack by Israel will be carried out in a future Jihad, and the next time Israel will not be successful.

IAF Attempts to Assassinate Hizbullah Leadership
Yaakov Katz, THE JERUSALEM POST
July 20, 2006
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 Burj al-Arjana 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.
Since Israel went to war with Lebanon last Wednesday, fighter jets have repeatedly bombed another bunker in the Dahiya neighborhood in Beirut, also said to be the main nerve center and headquarters of Hizbullah.
The IAF has so far carried over 3,000 sorties over Lebanon, and in the past day attacked 200 targets throughout the country, including Hizbullah headquarters, cars carrying terrorists, Katyusha launchers and weapons warehouses.
