Suggestion to Hezbollah's Leader, Nasrallah....You Might Just Want To Go Underground...Again

Apparently predator drones being utilized by Israel's Mossad have had a couple of opportunities over the past few months to take out Hezbollah's leader, Hassan Nasrallah, but on the best opportunity, the strike was cancelled due to a nearby concentration of children. But hey, for me, it's just damn nice to know that the Israelis are back in the business of trying to snuff out this piece of garbage. I'm guessing that when the Nasrallah finds out about this, he'll do another of his long-term disappearance acts - he does, afterall, come from the Mookie al Sadr school of hiding like a scared little kid.

Here's the story from ANSA:

LEBANON: MOSSAD TWICE CLOSE TO KILLING NASRALLAH, PRESS

(ANSAmed) - BEIRUT, JUNE 4 - Israeli intelligence has located the leader of the Lebanese Shia movement Hezbollah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, at least twice in the last few months, and on one occasion would have killed him if he had not been surrounded by a number of children, according to today's edition of the Kuwaiti daily, Al-Jarida. In a report from Jerusalem, the paper quotes anonymous "senior Israeli sources", who say that an Israeli drone recently located Nasrallah on the southern outskirts of Beirut, with orders given to Mossad to "act quickly to destroy him". The operation was suspended, however, due to the presence of a number of children in a nearby building, says Al-Jarida. The paper also reports that Nasrallah was located last February while travelling to Damascus to meet the Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and the Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who was on a visit to Syria. "Mossad identified Nasrallah, but he was able to disguise his movements and lose his followers a few minutes after entering Syrian territory". Nasrallah has lived in secret hideouts since the 2006 war between Hezbollah guerillas and Israeli forces. Since then he has made very few public appearances. His predecessor, Abbas Mussawi, was killed on February 6 1992 in the south of Lebanon by a rocket launched from an Israeli helicopter that hit his car. His wife, his son and four bodyguards were also killed in the attack. Israel subsequently claimed responsibility for the attack. (ANSAmed).
