Israel Hits Southern Beirut

CNN:

JERUSALEM (CNN) -- Israeli warplanes early Friday bombed southern Beirut, home to the offices of Hezbollah and the group's leader, as the Israeli-Lebanese violence that has killed dozens of Lebanese civilians and 10 Israelis entered its third day.

And to new commenter Some Guy, please see the doctor over your extreme case of cranial rectalitis.

And why should Frank J. have all the fun? We have all sorts of derogatory names for our enemies, yet we all still refer to Hezbollah as Hezbollah. Or Hizbullah. Or Hizb' Allah.

How about...Hizbutthole'a?

Update: The Counterterrorism Blog, via (who else?) Allah, reports this:

1- According to Israeli Channel 10, Hezbollah was able to hack into the Israeli Army's computer systems prior to the attack.

2- For the first time, Israel mentioned the possible intervention of Iranian Revolutionary Guards based in Lebanon in the war. The danger is that they have long range rockets capable of travelling more than 200 kms and reach Tel Aviv.

Read the rest.
