How do I know this? Because only Israel could bring together Sunni Islamofascists, Shiite Islamofascists and Lebanese Christians (!!) under the umbrella of Hezbollah, as the terrorist state within a state prepares for the next, inevitable war with Israel: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/11/01/MNOISNC32.DTL&hw=Israel&sn=003&sc=697. I can sort of understand Sunni and Shiite interests here; after all, the one thing they hate more than each other is Israel. But, the Christians? What are they getting out of this?
UPDATE (2:45 p.m.): Thanks to reader Asher Abrams who in the comments section provided me with a link to a Lebanese blogger who with some conviction says that the article I quoted above is, to put it mildly, full of you-kn0w-what: http://beirut2bayside.blogspot.com/2007/11/dilettante-journalism.html.
I'll keep following this story, because what the San Francisco Chronicle reported as fact may very well not be the case.
