#2 From an article posted on 11/13/06

Since the ceasefire, additional rockets, weapons and military equipment have reached Hezbollah, said an Israeli intelligence officer. We assume they now have about 20,000 rockets of all ranges a bit more than they had before July 12. Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, has confirmed the Israeli estimate. In a recent interview with al-Manar, the Hezbollah television station, he claimed his organisation had restocked its arsenal and now held at least 30,000 rockets, sufficient for five months of war.

Boy Howdy is UNFIL gonna be surprised when the other 29,983 suddenly appear in the air.

Its a miracle!

#3 I take it those were the rockets stored in the UNIFIL posts they kept tripping over.

#5 You could walk from the border north to Tyre only stepping on rockets.

#6 So, they've found them... but will they give them back to the hezbollah? I mean, it's not like they'd have an use for it, not being into war and stuff like that themselves.
