Israel is so tiny that both fronts in this war could merege:
While Israeli towns near the Gaza Strip have been contending with almost daily missile attacks, Palestinian rockets will now be launched regularly on other side of the country aimed at Jewish communities a few miles from Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, Abu Oudai, a chief rocket coordinator for the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades in the West Bank told WorldNetDaily in an exclusive interview.Abu Oudai claimed major Israeli cities and the country’s international airport would eventually become Palestinian rocket targets.
He said his group has the ability to produce rockets in the northern West Bank – a claim denied by the Israeli army. He hinted at possible help in developing rockets from Iran, Syria and the Lebanese Hizbullah militia.
“Our goal is to cover all Israeli regions and to bring them inside the distance of our rockets,” said Abu Oudai, speaking from Nablus.
This is the amazing part of this story:
Asked if the al-Aqsa Brigades received any outside help to its rocket development program, Abu Oudai explained, “It is our right to receive any help from anybody and our doors is open to every support, from Syria, Iran, Hizbullah or anyone who wants to help and to support the Palestinian people.”
They name their backers and what does Israel or, anyone else, do about it? I guess it’s not really news to anyone but the struggle to ignore it continues.

I am an American, who like most, supports Isreal in this conflict. How could any human being not support them.
I do feel sorrow for Lebanon, for its beautiful city and people, but they are letting Hezballah use them and Iran and Syria need to stop their support as well.
We real Americans will be glad to help Lebanon in their fight for independance as WE DID BEFORE but until the real enemy is crushed this can not be possible.
I pray for Isreal and Lebanon. In High School I dated alot of Lebanese guys and they were cute, and also very nice. !!!!
