IDF finding far more Russian arms in Hezbollah’s possession than expected — report
[IsraelTimes] Israeli troops operating in south Lebanon have encountered large amounts of Russian weaponry in the use of Hezbollah, in numbers greater than the military had expected, The Wall Street Journal reports.

According to the paper, much of the weaponry apparently reached the terror group from Syria’s military, which has been supplied by Russia for years.
Makes sense — both are clients of Iran.
Hezbollah’s cache of modern, sophisticated weaponry far exceeded prior military estimates in both quantity and capability, the Journal says, bolstering the group’s ability to strike and kill Israeli soldiers.

 File under: Hezbollah 

#1 Rods from God could make such a mess of any route from the Ruskies sea port, at the Syrian city of Tartus, to anywhere in Leb.

Just saying... like if the US State Dept and Pentagon actually had balls: a functioning Rods From God could be quickly put in place with something BIG like even the current Test Forms of StarShip...

#3 RE #2: Perhaps the first use should be against the EPA. Seems they've assumed a lot of power that wasn't granted them. Time for a correction.

#7 Save the original instruction manuals, the ones in Farsi. They’ll come in handy.
