The Israeli delegation to the United Nations announced Monday that it will file a complaint to the UN Security Council against Syria and Lebanon regarding Sunday's Nakba Day border clashes, Army Radio reported.
Israel said it wants to file a complaint against Syria and Lebanon for violating international law and violating UN Security Council resolutions when Nakba Day protesters from Syria and Lebanon clashed with IDF forces and infiltrated into Israel.
Earlier, the Lebanese delegation to the UN filed a complaint against Israel after the Lebanese army said that 10 people were killed and 112 were wounded in Maroun a-Ras when IDF troops opened fire on demonstrators trying to cross the border.
Beirut officials called on the UN to "denounce this act of violence and Israel's disregard for Lebanese sovereignty and UN resolutions."
Two demonstrators were killed in clashes near Majdal Shams on the Syrian border and between three and 10 people were killed in Maroun a-Ras on the Lebanese border.

Lebanon Says ‘No’ to Iran Axis
Denied !
HA HA HA!
Foxnews
Following Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's controversial visit to Lebanon this week, Lebanese daily 'An Nahar' reported on Friday that Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri rejected a proposal by Iranian President Ahmadinejad that Lebanon join the regional axis, which currently consists of only Iran and Syria.
According to the Lebanese newspaper's sources, Hariri told Ahmadinejad that the Lebanese "coexistence formula" does not allow Lebanon to join any regional alliances and that such steps require consultations among the Lebanese parties.
"The values of the Lebanese formula, with all its sectarian components, are the strongest weapon, not to mention that confronting Israel requires high-level economic capabilities," Hariri was quoted as saying.
However, Hariri added "The culture of confronting Israel has been deep-rooted in the minds of the Lebanese since a long time and that they are the ones who have suffered the highest prices and sacrifices in this confrontation in order to support the Arabs' main cause - the Palestinian cause," according to the report.
Hariri's refusal to join an Iranian-led regional alliance, comes as a big relief to Israel, who remains wary of the strengthening ties between the two countries.

Good News: Hizbollah arsenal has tripled in size
You can thank the UN. TelegraphIn a rare speech to a full parliament in Jerusalem, Ehud Barak, the Israeli defence minister, said that Hizbollah's rearmament programme meant the group now has three times the number of rockets it had in the run-up to the 2006 Lebanon war.
"The firepower of Hizbollah has grown threefold since the Second Lebanon War," said Mr Barak.
"It has missiles that can reach the towns of Ashkelon, Beersheba and Dimona [in southern Israel more than 125 miles from the Lebanese border].
"Today Hizbollah has 42,000 missiles."
The figures supported claims made by Sheikh Nabil Kaouk, a Hizbollah commander, in an interview with The Telegraph in August, when he said the group had built up its military arsenal significantly.
Israel has also indicated that the recent integration of Hizbollah into the Lebanese government has changed the thinking of Israeli military commanders.
Israeli commanders have warned that the integration would justify attacks on government infrastructure in Lebanon in the event of another clash with Hizbollah.

Hizbollah "Accidentily" Shoots at Lebanese Helicopter
You know it's bad in Lebanon when the newspapers will make excuses for Hizbollah. Internation Herald Tribune
A top Lebanese newspaper citing "multiple sources" says that the militant Hezbollah group mistakenly fired at an army helicopter a day earlier, killing an officer.
The pro-Syrian Al-Safir daily says the gunmen mistook the helicopter for an Israeli aircraft dropping off soldiers in the south of the country and opened fire, killing the navigator.
The paper often receives leaked information from the Shiite militant group.

Israel Buries Soldiers Returned in Swap
As Israel mourns the death of the two soldiers who were returned in a swap with Hizbollah. The five prisoners who were released back to Lebannon vowed to continue fighting Israel as Nasrallah and company rejoiced. Reuters
....
NAHARIYA, Israel (Reuters) - Thousands attended Israeli funerals on Thursday for two slain soldiers returned in a prisoner swap with Hezbollah and their grief contrasted with Lebanon's joy over guerrillas freed in the deal.
Defence Minister Ehud Barak told the soldiers and civilians gathered at the graveside of Ehud Goldwasser, 31, that Israel was "heartbroken" and had "paid a heavy price" to bring home the bodies by freeing five guerrillas involved in deadly attacks.The funerals were broadcast live on national television and Israelis watched as Goldwasser's widow wept at his grave. The two men were captured in a cross-border Hezbollah raid that sparked a 2006 war.
He should've never been released.
The Shi'ite group had not commented on the soldiers' condition since capturing them in the war in which some 1,200 Lebanese and 159 Israelis were killed, fuelling hopes that they may have survived.
"I just can't believe it. Udi, we thought it would be otherwise, we hoped you would return home," Daniella Avni, Goldwasser's mother-in-law said before his burial.

"Woe betide the people who celebrate the release of a beastly man who bludgeoned the skull of a 4-year-old toddler," Olmert said in a statement, referring to the girl Qantar killed with her father.

Hizbollah Welcomes Child Killer
Just dispicable. How could Israel let Samir Qantar, who murdered a father in front his daughter and then smashed the 4 year old's head in, free? BBC
....
Tens of thousands of Hezbollah supporters, some travelling by car or scooter, converged on the south of city to celebrate the prisoners' release and listen to Sheikh Nasrallah speak.
Earlier, Lebanese President Michel Suleiman and other politicians from across the country's religious and political divide greeted the five men at Beirut airport.
Fireworks lit up the night sky and the crowds waved yellow Hezbollah flags. Some threw rice as they mobbed the cars carrying the ex-prisoners to the rally in the city's southern suburbs, Hezbollah's stronghold.The most prominent of the ex-prisoners is gunman Samir Qantar, jailed in 1979 for killing a four-year-old Israeli girl and two other people.
It is clear Hezbollah means to extract the maximum possible publicity from this event, the BBC's Crispin Thorold reports from the rally.

Changing into combat fatigues, they stopped briefly in the coastal town of Naqoura before being flown to Beirut.

Lebannon Forms Unity Government with Hizbollah
Even though Hizbollah was awarded only on ministry spot it still holds tremondous power. With their effective veto power they can decide which laws pass and which don't. This is what you get when you don't finish the job, ie the 2006 33 day war between Hizbollah & Israel. Reuters
....
BEIRUT (Reuters) - Lebanon ended weeks of wrangling on Friday and formed a unity government in which Hezbollah and its allies hold effective veto power, as agreed under a deal that ended a paralyzing political conflict in the country.
The decisive say granted to the former opposition led by Hezbollah, an ally of Damascus, shows that Syria has succeeded in wrenching back some political leverage in Lebanon, where it was the main power broker until its troops left in 2005.
The birth of the government, the first under newly elected President Michel Suleiman, should close a long political crisis that had threatened to plunge Lebanon into a new civil war."This government has two main tasks: regaining confidence in the Lebanese political system... and securing the holding of a transparent parliamentary election," Siniora told reporters.
The new team has one Hezbollah minister in addition to 10 ministers from its Shi'ite, Druze and Christian allies.
The opposition was guaranteed 11 of the cabinet's 30 seats under a May deal to defuse a conflict that had sparked some of the worst fighting since the 1975-90 civil war. All major decisions require a two-thirds majority or 20 cabinet votes.
