Hizbullah's Strategic Skill
(Ynet News) Ron Ben-Yishai - Hizbullah quit the Lebanese government because it wants Lebanese public opinion to be preoccupied with the task of forming a new government, thereby diverting its attention from the conclusions of the special UN tribunal in respect to Hizbullah's responsibility for Prime Minister Hariri's assassination in 2005. The U.S. supports the effort to bring Hariri's killers to justice, but shares the concern over the prospect of an ethnic war that may break out in Lebanon as result of such move. At this time it appears that the domestic Lebanese crisis has no direct or immediate bearing on Israel.
