Hizballah: "A-Team" of International Terror?
(Jerusalem Post) David Rudge - The arrest of Hamed Muslam Musa Abu Amra on a Hizballah arms boat is a direct rebuttal of Hizballah's claim that it is a resistance movement whose activities are confined solely to liberating every inch of occupied Lebanese land. Retired IDF colonel Yoni Fighel, of the International Policy Institute for Counterterrorism at the Interdisciplinary Center in Herzliya, believes the latest incident indicates a strategic policy on the part of some elements of the PA to adopt the methods used by Hizballah to drive the IDF out of south Lebanon. Fighel maintains that elements in the PA are actively trying to improve the range and warheads of the Kassam rockets and mortars - and that it is only a matter of time before such weapons are deployed in the West Bank to threaten Jerusalem, Petah Tikvah, and other Israeli towns.
