Hezbollah intercepts Israeli drones & Amine Gemayel talks about ...James Bond!

While Arab citizens, across the Middle East & North Africa ponder the significance of this cataclysmic tidbit, the leader of a defunct pro-Israeli Lebanese amalgam of people belittles this by talking about James Bond.

From what I read on the NowLebanon twitter feed and from a few of the early news reports it was a pretty impressive speech.

Angry Arab sums a lot of it up here

NowLebanon also has a good review of the speech here

Another report from Reuters.

All in all impressive that Nasrallah has Israeli drone feeds (but not entirely surprising)

This report on the 2006 war written less than 6 months after the war said basically the same thing regarding Hezbollah technical systems.
