Is this a vision of what comes next?

Last Update: 09/11/2004 05:26 Iranians had key role in Hezbollah drone launch By Ze'ev Schiff, Haaretz Correspondent

"Iranian experts on unmanned airborne vehicles (drones) from the Iranian Revolutionary Guards took part in the launch from Lebanon of a Hezbollah drone that spent several minutes over northern Israel this week"


Pete's Points

Is this the start of the next adventure in the Middle East? Sometimes the sort of provocations which are reported in the Israeli press represent the first of many little items that end up being considered "intolerable" by the Israelis and lead to a strike on one or more targets by the Israeli military. In this little item from Haaretz, there is already mention of the Syrian troops in Lebanon, and the Iranian involvement with Hezbollah. I just hope that this does not mean that the planning for action in either of these countries by anyone is taking place.
