#1 Convoys of Hizbollah trainees drove to Syria, boarded aircraft at military airbases, and flew off to Iran... The Hizbollah prisoners know that their hero status in Lebanon will be short lived, and that eventually the Lebanese Shia community, the backbone of Hizbollah support, will be called to account. For that reason, many Hizbollah employees are sending their families to Syria, an exile that may prove permanent.

If this is true, then 1) Syria's going to get a bit crowded, and 2) the Alawites aren't going to be happy about it.

#2 If this is true then the peace plan does actually have a chance. Perhaps the Lebanese will string these bastards up themselves.

Yeah, but will they have the Right of Return?
