The real aim in Lebanon: Regime change and a puppet government?
http://www.zmag.org/content/showarticle.cfm?SectionID=107&ItemID=10584

THE REAL aim is to change the regime in Lebanon and to install a puppet government.

That was the aim of Ariel Sharon's invasion of Lebanon in 1982. It failed. But Sharon and his pupils in the military and political leadership have never really given up on it.

As in 1982, the present operation, too, was planned and is being carried out in full coordination with the US.

As then, there is no doubt that it is coordinated with a part of the Lebanese elite.

That's the main thing. Everything else is noise and propaganda.

2. That's what they had. The puppets were put in place by the U.S.
and Israel after they FORCED out the Syrian army which had been keeping a lid on the trouble. Once they left Hez and the Hams were running the place. Be careful what you ask for you might just get it.

4. Well you got the purpose right, regime change it is
But the countries are wrong. It isn't Lebanon that Bushco is looking to change, but rather it is Iran and Syria he's gunning for. Read your PNAC friend, it's all been laid out in there.

5. "Noise" that would be the sound of a bomb in a crowded city?
Yes, Israel has a master plan to take over the world. Lebanon is just the first step.

MAYBE Israel just doesn't like being bombed. Oh, wait. They're supposed to be big about that. After all, the bombs are coming from the poor, suffering Palestinians.
