Olmert: Israel may target Hezbollah leader
 Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has not ruled out an assassination attempt on Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah by the Israeli military, in an interview with a German newspaper to be published on Sunday. Olmert told the weekly Welt am Sonntag that the normal rules of war did not apply to Nasrallah, who was not a head of state but "the chief of a terrorist organisation". Nasrallah could not expect to be treated like a legitimate leader, Olmert said, while adding that he was not waging a "personal war against anyone in particular".Posted by: Fred 2006-08-06 |
