Hezbullah releases video of Goldwasser and Regev 'kidnapping'

Hezbullah's al-Manar television in Lebanon has shown a video of the 'kidnapping' of IDF soldiers Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev HY"D (May God Avenge their blood). Goldwasser and Regev were murdered in the 'kidnapping,' but Israel eventually released child murderer Samir al-Kuntar and several lesser lights in order to retrieve Goldwasser's and Regev's bodies.

Let's go to the videotape. A description follows the video.

Khalid Bazzi, also known as Hajj Qasim, led the operation for Hezbollah and is shown on the video to be involved in the planning of the attack in what the program claims is the site from where the attack was actually launched. He is shown standing up high in the tree observing the site of where the attack would take place, while another soldier is on the ground under him.

The video also showed live video of the attack with Hezbollah militants jumping out from the trees and bushes to attack an approaching IDF vehicle. The footage of the attack appears to be from previously released footage. 

Bazzi was killed by an Israeli air strike during the war.

Hezbullah does a great job of self-promotion....
