Guilty of Protesting Drones

The Verdict: Guilty of Protesting the Drones
John Dear, Truthout: "Guilty!

Hezbollah has Drones and Missiles with 300 km Range

In addition to the laundry list at left, IDF intelligence has confirmed that Hezbullah has drones and that it has missiles with a 300 km. range.

Thousands of missiles. Head of the Counter-Terrorism Bureau in Israel, Brigadier-General Nitzan Nuriel, said Hizbullah owns drones and long-range missiles.

"Hizbullah has weapons that are not found in Europe," Nuriel said during a lecture at the annual conference of counter-terrorism in Herzliya, a city located on the central coast of Israel.

"Hizbullah has unmanned drones and missiles with a range of more than 300 km and so is the case of Hamas in Gaza," Nuriel added.

Well, let's hear it for the moron with the lousy English who brought us UN Security Council Resolution 1701, which allowed Hezbullah to re-arm under the watchful eye of UNIFIL.
