Israel warns Lebanon, Syria not to allow attacks
2015-01-24
Israel warned Lebanon and Syria on Friday not to allow any attacks on Israel from their soil, hoping to avoid reprisals for an Israeli air strike in Syria that killed an Iranian general and senior Hezbollah fighters.

"Israel will see the governments, regimes and organizations beyond its northern border as responsible for what emanates from their territory," Defense Minister Moshe Yaalon said in a statement. "(Israel) will exact a price for any harm inflicted on Israeli sovereignty, civilians and soldiers."

#1  Which I think illustrates the crux of the problem. Ever since Lebanon lost the Lebanese Civil War they have about as much input into Iranian decisions to use Lebanese territory to launch attacks on Israel as, say, Brooklyn does. (Maybe less, since Brooklyn at least has the opportunity to vote in US elections. Which it throws away by voting for Obama and his ilk).
