In a televised speech, Hizbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said the group would target Tel Aviv if Israel attacked central Beirut. Israeli television quoted a senior military source as saying Israel would destroy Lebanon's infrastructure if that threat was carried out.

"If you strike Beirut, the Islamic Resistance will strike Tel Aviv and it is able to do so," Nasrallah said, in the first apparent confirmation that Hizbollah has longer-range missiles capable of hitting the city 130 km (80 miles) from the border.

5. Don't do it.

Israel will flatten Lebanon. Tit for tat gets bigger and bigger. Tit for tat means Tel Aviv gets hit. Damascus gets hit. Then WWIII officially starts, all this before Iraq gets to be officially declared a 'classic civil war'.
