Deja vu all over again: Israel asked not to respond
According to the report, the Americans have also reasoned that the drone has caused no damage, and that before any response is exacted, those responsible for the drone must be found.
"The Israeli military command doesn't treat drones launched from Lebanon lightly, since their goal may be not only taking pictures, but also an assassination of senior officials, military or political," the paper quoted the official as saying.
Hezbollah denied sending the drone on Thursday. “Hezbollah denies that it has sent any surveillance plane towards the occupied Palestinian land,” a statement by the Iranian-backed Shi’ite group said.
Asked whether Hezbollah was behind the incident, an IDF spokesman said an investigation was under way.
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's helicopter, which was carrying the prime minister to a visit to a Druse village in the Western Galilee, was grounded as a precaution.
The incursion marked the second such violation of Israeli airspace in six months.The Obama administration's response to any attack by Muslims is not to respond. Eventually, that lack of response is likely to God forbid exact a serious price. Israel cannot allow itself to be a part of that price.
