The next Israeli conflict may start over one Cypress tree

Israelis tried to prune a Cypress tree in their territory near the Lebanese border.
In the resulting attack by the Lebanese army, 5 people died, including a high ranking Israeli officer and a Lebanese journalist.
The UN (UNIFIL) people in the area back the Israeli contention that the tree was clearly on their side of the border and the attack was unwarranted, but that doesn't matter to Hezbollah.
The one factor that may excuse Lebanon for claiming the tree is that the "border" fence is not on the official border so the Israeli performing the trimming operation was on a crane, leaning over the fence.
That does not make it OK for either side to start shooting and one wonders why the Lebanese would not also want the area cleared to prevent people sneaking into or out of Lebanon.

Hezbollah cell uncovered...in Tijuana

While the Obama administration sues Arizona for trying to do the job the feds refuse to do, our neighbors in Mexico have rolled up a terrorist network being set up right across the border from California.
So we have Liberal druggies (yes, conservatives too) financing the narcos, who are chummy with Hugo Chavez, who is chummy with the terrorists, who are set on infiltrating us to wreak havoc so they can dance in the streets of the middle east while our economy sinks to greater depths.
I "hope" things "change" before they succeed.

Syria supplying missiles to Hezbollah

For those of you that were too busy living your lives, watching reality TV, or waiting for the next i-? from Apple; Hezbollah has been building up its weapons stocks for another devastating attack on Israel.
Syria is one of the major middlemen and supplier of heavier weapons (including missiles) to Hezbollah (they are still mad that Israel blew up their nuke facility).
Iran is the source for training and many of the weapons transshipped through Syria as well as many of the weapons used in Iraq by "insurgents".

Combine this with Obama's continued disrespect of Israeli leaders and attacks on their sovereignty and you can see a nasty summer coming for Israelis.
I wonder if Obama bowed to Assad when he met him?

Iranian Military training in Venezuela?

According to a story in the American Thinker, Iran's Qods forces are active all over the world; including training camps in Hugo Chavez' Venezuela.
If we were training Iraqis known to be active in insurgent operations against Iran, there would be hell to pay in the press but this story will be buried by the MSM.

Serious problem with Syria

It's not like we thought of Syria as friend, but now they are reported to have supplied Hezbollah with longer range, more accurate rockets.
Hmmm,,,I wonder which recently dissed (by our President) country they would be aimed at.

No worries though.
The US Congress might delay sending Robert Ford to Damascus to re-engage the country after pulling the previous representative.
That'll show 'em.
