Of course the Lebanese army is going to go after Israel, they are being invaded. Frankly, it is almost a coincidence that the Lebanaese Army and Hezbollah are on the same side.

Iron,

How does do those statements make sense to you? How is the Lebanese army being invaded when the territory being invaded is that controlled by Hezbollah and which the Lebanese army has refused to take control of itself in accordance with UN resolutions? The fact is that South Lebanon is the province of Hezbollah and if the Lebanese army wishes to control it then I am sure the IDF would be glad to withdraw if they would move in and disarm Hezbollah. If the Lebanese army doesn't want to do that, then Lebanon has abdicated South Lebanon to Hezbollah and its not really theirs any more to protect. And the rest of Lebanon wouldn't need to fear attacks if they would cut off supplies to South Lebanon.

The bottom line is that Israel isn't going to let Lebanon straddle the fence and try to have it both ways.
