Hizbullah Seeks To Kill Prominent Israelis
| Interesting move. Hezbollah wants to keep its arms and paints itself as the country's defense against the Zionist aggressors. No Zionists are aggressing at the moment, and Shebaa Farms is a pretty thin issue. The obvious solution is to cause some Zionist aggression, with the cause being forgotten while everybody's busy dealing with the unpleasant effect. |
 Hizbullah was said to have financed an effort to kill prominent Israelis. Israeli military sources said authorities have received information that Hizbullah ordered the monitoring and targeting of unidentified Israeli politicians and military commanders. They said the effort has been coordinated with Palestinian operatives sponsored by Hizbullah in the West Bank.

The Hizbullah order was part of a strategy to spark tensions between Israel and its Arab neighbors, the sources said. They said Hizbullah was believed to be planning major attacks against Israel prior or during its withdrawal from the Gaza Strip and northern West Bank in the summer of 2005. A Hizbullah-sponsored cell was determined to have targeted a prominent Israeli scheduled to have visited the Nablus area of the West Bank. The sources said the cell, captured on Feb. 25, had been ordered to track the VIP and train operatives for an assassination.
