As most of you know and might've read in the "Another one bites the dust..." thread, a few days ago a top hezbollah senior commander was killed, and Hezbollah blames his death on Israel, although Israel is denying having to do anything with it.

Now, hezbollah says Israel can expect "open war" if it wants such a thing;

"You have crossed the borders," Nasrallah said, accusing Israel of extending the simmering conflict between Israel and Hezbollah beyond the Lebanese frontier.

"With this murder, its timing, location and method -- Zionists, if you want this kind of open war, let the whole world listen: Let this war be open."

Israel's military chief Thursday ordered his forces to "take the necessary steps" to protect the country's border with Lebanon. Israeli Chief of Staff Maj. Gen Gabi Ashkenazi ordered the military to be prepared in the air, sea and land in order to protect the northern border and other Israeli interests.

Let's see what's going to happen.

Perhaps Israel should take him up on it.  Israel > Hezbollah in true open war.

Especially wonder how this will turn out to be. Iran and Syria will both play great roles in this, with Iran being the #1 supporter of Hezbollah. I don't think they'll get involved in fighting but they'll fund them with weapons, training and money, if it would ever come to an open war. I'm almost sure of that.

This is a very interesting development in the Hezbollah activities so I'll really, really wonder how this is going to turn out. If the statements made by the Hezbollah leader are true we could be up for some surprises. (Nonetheless, Israel's military force would overwhelm Hezbollah, but they could still inflict alot of casualties, mainly civilian ones.)

How does that statement change anything? 

"If you want an open war you will get it"...no, they were coexisting peacefully and everyone was perfectly happy until this happened.  Give me a break.

The people of Hezbollah, Lebanon, occupied regions, Israel, etc. really need to realize constant fighting is doing little to nothing except destroying credibility and killing tons of innocent people.

Well they weren't coexisting peacefully we all know that, but in this they actually mean going full force. (They'd be crushed, but as I pointed out the danger of missiles into sensitive areas is pretty great, concerning that they aren't exactly an army and hiding inbetween civilians.)

Actually the constant fighting is accomplishing something: it is weakening and distracting Israel, getting it to spend huge amounts on defense, and preventing it from normalizing relations with its neighbors.

Exactly what Iran wants.
