Israel: Hizballah Coup in Lebanon Could Oust UNIFIL
[Jerusalem Post] Yaakov Katz - Israeli defense officials expressed extreme concern Thursday over Hizballah leader Hassan Nasrallah's call for a massive protest Friday to bring down the Lebanese government, warning that UNIFIL might be expelled from Lebanon if Prime Minister Fouad Sinoria were forced to leave office. "UNIFIL is not the best, but it has been effective so far in preventing Hizballah from returning to the border," a high-ranking defense official said Thursday. "If UNIFIL is kicked out of Lebanon, we could easily find ourselves back in the same situation we were in before the war this past summer, or even back at war."
