BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) — The Hezbollah militant group captured two Israeli soldiers during clashes along the Lebanese border on Wednesday, triggering an Israeli assault with warplanes, tanks and gunboats as Israeli troops crossed the frontier to hunt for the captives.
Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert called the guerrilla attack “an act of war” and warned that Hezbollah would pay a “heavy price” for its actions.
Israeli warplanes struck two bridges over the Litani River deep in southern Lebanon, killing two civilians on the main north-south highway between the port cities of Tyre and Sidon, Lebanese security officials said. The pan-Arab satellite TV al-Arabiya station said that at least seven Israeli soldiers were killed in the fighting, and that several more were wounded.

In Gaza, Israeli aircraft blasted a house and killed at least six people in Gaza City early Wednesday during a high-level meeting of Hamas commanders
This could easily and quickly engulf Lebanon,, & Syria in the current Palestinian conflict with Israel.

It seems Iran has commissioned Hezbollah to do a diversionary strike, to take the heat off of Iran’s nuclear interest.
Also, remember that B Laden has mentioned after 9/11 that he hoped to provoke an attack from the US that would be such an over response that
it would cause Islam to come together to the degree that it would ultimately unite all of the Arabian Pennisula under one flag..a united
Islamic nation. That is the goal.. and Iran wants nuclear weapons and is pushing ahead at this time of diminished American support to
achieve them. Get used to it! Iran will have nuclear weapons.. and who know what that will mean?!

I agree Tim, Look at who benefits from the fighting in Lebanon..
Hamas by distracting Israeli attention away from Gaza, Iran by disrtacting world attention away from their Nuke weapons Program, Syria by undermining a Lebanese government that is less friendly to them than they are used to. The ones who lose in this is Israel and Lebanon.
