Lebanon attack was pre-planned

 

 

 

 

" Matthew Kalman reveals that Israel's wideranging assault on Lebanon

has been planned in a general

way for years, and a specific plan has been in the works for over a

year. The 'Three Week War' was

shown to Washington think tanks and officials last year on powerpoint

by a senior Israeli army officer:

 

" 'More than a year ago, a senior Israeli army officer began

giving PowerPoint presentations, on

an off-the-record basis, to U.S. and other diplomats, journalists and

think tanks, setting out the

plan for the current operation in revealing detail.'

 

" The Israelis tend to launch their wars of choice in the summer, in

part because they know that

European and American universities will be the primary nodes of

popular opposition, and the

universities are out in the summer. This war has nothing to do with

captured Israeli soldiers. It is

a long-planned war to increase Israel's ascendency over Hizbullah and

its patrons. "
