| Hezbollah intercepting Israeli threats |

| The head of the Hezbullies executive council says the resistance movement is fully prepared to counter any Israeli threats against Leb's illusory sovereignty, Press TV reports. Sayyed Hashem Safi al-Din made the remark on Saturday, a day after Hezbullies members discovered an Israeli espionage device planted in south Leb. "This is clear proof that the resistance is alert and performing its duty. It is clear proof that the Israelis are not yet through with Leb and that it is still a target of the Israelis," Safi al-Din said. An Israeli surveillance plane remotely detonated the device in the Bint Jbeil district of southern Leb on Friday after it was discovered. Safi al-Din added that Leb's illusory sovereignty "is being violated daily by Israeli surveillance planes and drones." This is not the first such Israeli violation of Lebanese illusory sovereignty that has been thwarted by Hezbullies. The resistance movement had also uncovered a number of Israeli espionage devices in several areas of southern Leb in 2009 and 2010. Timur Goksel, a former senior adviser to the United Nations ...what started out as a a diplomatic initiative, now trying to edge its way into legislative, judicial, and executive areas... Interim Force in Leb (UNIFIL), told Press TV that Hezbullies is not a weak organization and it is paying "very big attention" to intelligence and security work. "They (Hezbullies) are making very good use of their popularity with the people. The people report to them in the villages. That is a fantastic source for any intelligence organization," Goksel said. The Lebanese government, Hezbullies, and UNIFIL have repeatedly cited Israel's surveillance flights over Leb as clear violations of UN Security Council Resolution 1701 and the country's illusory sovereignty. Resolution 1701, which brokered a ceasefire in the war of aggression Israel launched against Leb in 2006, calls on Tel Aviv to respect Beirut's illusory sovereignty and territorial integrity. |
