Breaking: Lebanese reports say Israel 'approached' Fatima Gate
A Lebanese report indicates that the Lebanese Armed Forces and UNIFIL forces are on alert because IDF forces approached Fatima Gate (the former 'Good Fence' pictured above) to defuse a suspicious object. Tensions were high at the Fatima gate border crossing in southern Lebanon on Friday when an Israeli army unit approached the border to inspect a suspicious object, reported the National News Agency.The two comments that are currently there are from people who get it. This has been blown out of proportion.
The Lebanese army and United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon promptly went on alert in response to the Israeli activity.
NNA said that an Israeli unit of 30 soldiers accompanied by police dogs approached the area to inspect a green plastic box, which they suspected to contain explosives.
It soon withdrew from the area after ensuring that it carried no explosives.

This is what we have to thank the Four Mothers for. Life on the edge with Lebanon.
So if the good fence is now the "Fatima gate border", who's allowed to cross through? If the answer is "no one", then why have a gate there at all?
