...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians.

In response to the rocket fire, which set off warning sirens in the Western Galilee region, the military said it fired artillery shells at the source of the rockets.
One of the rockets was intercepted by the Iron Dome missile defense system, while the second fell in an open area near the coast, the IDF said. There were no reports of injuries or damage, and the military said it had no special instructions for residents of the region.
The early morning attack came some four hours after Syrian state media said Israeli aircraft launched a number of missiles at targets near the Syrian city of Aleppo.

The Lebanese Army announced Tuesday it had located three Grad rocket launchers, one of which was armed, in the town of Qlaileh, south of Tyre.
There are several Paleostinian terror groups operating in southern Lebanon, along with Hezbollah, which is backed by Iran
