A 'tree' called a 'pretext'? Funny how no one is scared of the great Tsahal anymore ...People will measure the colon's army every day...
Reuters:"..........."It started when the Israelis wanted to cut a tree down inside Lebanon. The Lebanese army fired warning shots at them and they responded by shelling," said a security source in Lebanon.....United Nations peacekeepers appealed to both sides to exercise "maximum restraint" after the incident.,,,,, Saad al-Hariri, (from his summer vacation) "denounced the Israeli violations of Lebanese sovereignty." His office said he also contacted Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak to discuss "ways to confront the Israeli aggression against the Lebanese army." (Minister of Defense of the Republic Of Lebanon, Elias Michel Murr, also on vacation, was incommunicado. Lebanon was in good hands!).... "Israel views the Lebanese government as responsible for this serious incident and is warning of the ramifications if the violations continue," the ministry said in a statement.The Israeli military said its troops were fired upon while engaged in "routine activity" inside Israeli territory, between an Israeli security fence and a U.N.-drawn border line....... A security source said three Lebanese soldiers and a Lebanese journalist were killed and five people wounded.... Israeli artillery also fired at the village....... a high-ranking Israeli soldier was killed on the border. The Israeli military had no immediate comment........

Rumours that a Katusha rocket landed in an Northern Israeli town appear to be false as well.
