"Every Israeli soldier who steps an inch into Lebanese territory... will be killed, wounded or captured," cautioned Hezbollah spiritual leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah Sunday, reports AFP. Nasrallah was ranting speaking at his first public appearance since the completion of the first stage of the Israel – Hibullah prisoner swap, in which 3 dead Israeli soldiers and businessman Elhanan Tannenbaum were swapped for 420 imprisoned Palestinians. Nasrallah said his movement reserved the right to stage roadside ambushes and plant anti-personnel mines on the Lebanese side of the border with Israel: "We are capable and ready to respond to any territorial violation of the international border and the blue line," he said, "including in the area near the Shebaa farms, which are Lebanese and which we want to liberate." |
