Hizbullah Gears Up for New War
[Observer-Guardian-UK] Mitchell Prothero and Peter Beamont - Hizbullah is rapidly rearming in preparation for a new conflict with Israel. "Sure, we are rearming, we have even said that we have far more rockets and missiles than we did in 2006," said a Hizbullah commander. Hizbullah has been forced to abandon the line of deeply entrenched static positions on the border with Israel and withdraw most of its men and weaponry to clusters of Shia villages. Hizbullah fighters have been busy reinforcing fixed defense positions north of the Litani river.
