IDF Views Hizballah on Israel's Northern Border
(Jerusalem Post) Arieh O'Sullivan - Hizballah militiamen have recently set up more outposts and positions along the border and manned them with uniformed troops. The IDF believes Hizballah is poised to be able to ambush a patrol and kidnap soldiers. The IDF assessment is that Hizballah won't rock the boat during the planned disengagement. But IDF intelligence also believes that Damascus's grip over Hizballah will become weakened as the Syrian army withdraws from Lebanon. The belief is that Hizballah will intensify its support and orchestration of Palestinian terrorists and recruitment of Israeli Arabs.
