Posted in NEWS & ANALYSIS by Administrator on the August 9th, 2008

Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak pledged “very tough” Israeli retaliation to any attack by Hizbullah, vowing to target the areas deep in Lebanon.

    Barak warned against an “intimate relation” between Hizbullah and Syria saying it could lead into distorting the balance of power in Lebanon, which would lead Israel to retaliate. Barak said unlike Europe and North America the Middle East does not provide a place to “those who are weak.”
