Baroud Speaks of 120 Fires across Lebanon, Suspects ArsonI'd half to assume that the fires in Lebanon are just a terrible coincidence, one that will be brought under control quickly and without casualties.
Interior Minister Ziad Baroud on Sunday announced that around 120 forest fires have broken out across the country, speaking of "four major blazes."
In an interview with LBC television while inspecting the blaze-hit Jbeil town of Fatri, Baroud voiced his fears that some of the fires might have been intentionally set, noting "that the army's helicopters and the Sikorsky firefighting aircrafts currently engaged in combating the fire are not enough."
The minister revealed that "the interior ministry is working on providing fifty 4x4 vehicles, each with a capacity of 50,000 liters, for rapid intervention upon the eruption of any blaze."

Countdown to blaming it on the Jews.....
I think that would be a stretch, even for Hezbollah--but we'll see.
