Huge explosion in Hezbullahland
Lebanon's Daily Star is reporting on a massive explosion in Siddiqin, which is part of Hezbullah's southern Lebanon stronghold. If you look at the map above, find Kiryat Shmona on the right (the Israeli side has highway numbers which make it more legible) and then go directly left to the center, you will find Siddiqin. The Daily Star reports that - surprise - the explosion was probably caused by a Hezbullah ammunition cache. A huge explosion shook the Hezbollah stronghold of Siddiqin in south Lebanon overnight, a security source told The Daily Star Wednesday.In the past, the IDF has posted video of explosions like this from its UAV's. As of now, no such video has been posted. If they post one, I will add it to this post or put it in a new post.
The source said the cause of the blast, which was heard shortly before midnight, could not be determined due to the heavy security blanket that was thrown by Hezbollah.
Attempts by Lebanese security forces to reach the scene so far failed as Hezbollah members created a one-kilometer radius security zone around the explosion site between Siddiqin and Deir Ames, the source added.
Local media said the explosion likely took place at a Hezbollah arms cache.

We'll expect an emergency statement out of Obama's posse and the U.N. re the endangerment of civilians by storing munitions in civilian areas. Responsibility to protect. And re the no-go areas enforced against the legitimate military of a U.N. member state by the gangbangers of Hezbullah. Whatever the Hez gangbangers are permitted in the ME, the Chicago-drug-runner gangbangers will be permitted to do in Mexico and the U.S.. Don't forget this, Americans. It's all a testbed for the Obama gang to get us used to having no go areas run by gangbangers. Vote these people out in 2012, while we still can.
So remind me of the charter of UN1701 and UNIFIL again?
