KFAR KILA, Lebanon - Israeli soldiers fired automatic rifles across the Lebanese-Israeli border Monday, hitting two Lebanese cars but causing no injuries, Lebanese security officials said...
A spokesman for Hezbollah, the anti-Israeli militant Lebanese guerrilla group active in south Lebanon, also said he had heard reports of an incident but had no details.
Shootings on the edge of this border town, some 100 kilometers (60 miles) southeast of Beirut, have been rare since Israeli troops withdrew from south Lebanon in 2000 following their 18-year occupation...
Israeli soldiers yelled at reporters and Lebanese soldiers who arrived at the scene about an hour after the shooting and ordered them to leave the area. One of the Lebanese soldiers replied, "This is Lebanese territory. We are not leaving," according to an Associated Press reporter at the scene Israeli soldiers shouted back in Arabic, "Go away before we shoot you," the reporter who witnessed the argument said.
KFAR SHOUBA, Lebanon (Reuters) - Israeli troops in a disputed border area shelled the edges of a south Lebanese village Monday, security sources and witnesses said.
What happened to Iraq's arms that are supposed to have been stored in Syria? Numerous ideas would be cited at that point, perhaps including the theory that Syria moved the alleged weapons to Lebanon. It is open to question whether that would mean the Americans setting their gunsights on Lebanon, with the hidden agenda of demolishing the Hizbollah and other groups which refuse to uphold American interests as their priority.

Check your dates.
It's the first time that the Israelis have gone against Syria in a big way for 30 years but they've been pretty active against Lebanon for years - ever since Syrian and Iranian backed Hezbollah forces have taken up postions near the border.

What the # is Israel doing? Are they deliberately trying to stir # up? Are they deliberately trying to start a fullscale mid east war? The backlash against the US is gonna be big, because Bush didnt condemn the attacks, he even gave the political equivilant of a wink and pat.
