SOMEONE FELT LEFT OUT: Once again, rockets are being fired at Israel--this time from Lebanon.
Militants in Lebanon fired at least two rockets into Israel on Sunday, causing no casualties and little damage, but raising the possibility of a new flare-up on the volatile border less than a year after Israel's bloody monthlong war against Hezbollah.

The Lebanese prime minister said the attack was geared at undermining the stability of Lebanon, while the U.N. condemned Sunday's incident as a serious violation to a cease-fire that ended the conflict last year.

Hezbollah, a Lebanese militant group, denied involvement, and Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert it was mostly likely the work of "a small Palestinian movement."
What if it were to turn out that this "small Palestinian movement" happened to be the same group being attacked by Lebanese forces--would the West then give Israel the green light to take action? Or would the West do what it does best when it comes to Israel--wring its hands while at the same time condemning any action Israel takes in her own defense?

What are the chances this is an isolated incident?
