And then there's this from the Israel Project.org in an article titled "Hezbollah aiming for Lebanon takeover":
"The Iranian-backed Hezbollah organization with its 40,000 rockets aimed at Israel clearly aims to dominate the country and control the selection of its next leader, analysts believe...Now, the fundamentalist Shiite organization may be on the verge of taking over the entire country. Mustapha Alloush, a member of the political bureau of Hariri's Future Movement told the Washington Post Hezbollah was trying to "rule Lebanon" and annex it for Iran."
With 20,000 trained fighters, Hezbollah is already much more powerful than the Lebanese army and in 2008 demonstrated its superiority by seizing part of the capital, brushing aside the army's resistance. "There is currently no force within Lebanon able to stand firmly against the physical power of Hezbollah," wrote Jonathan Spyer, a senior research fellow at the Global Research in International Affairs Center in Herzliya in the Jerusalem Post.
The impending Hezbollah takeover threatens to destabilize the entire region as well as Lebanon itself...While analysts do not see an immediate outbreak of hostilities with Israel, few doubt that another confrontation is coming some time down the road..." ("Hezbollah aiming for Lebanon takeover", Alan Elsner, The Israel Project)
So, is this the plan, to lure Hezbollah into seizing power, thus justifying another invasion by Israel?
No one knows for sure, but there's a lot about the US/Israeli-backed tribunal that doesn't pass the "smell test."
