Akid the brothers in HA find a way to get some to the south... But the southern is less likely to pay taxes... So if you are looking at it from a citizens PoV its the same (smuggling and not paying) cause itll save you the same amount of money...
But in the eyes of the government its less profitable if people dont pay taxes

It only makes sense that the smuggled quantities do not suffice large segments of the market, rather the areas next to the border.

A Big Surprise Awaits Israel If It Attacks Lebanon

“A Big Surprise Awaits Israel If It Attacks Lebanon”

06/10/2008

Hanan Awarekeh

It has become evident that the Israeli army has been founding its plans on the necessity of swiftly securing ‘enemy’ territory by ground forces instead of relying on the IAF that proved ineffective during the 2006 war. This new conception led the Israeli military command to engage in large scale and tough maneuvers that in some cases led to the killing of some soldiers. The Israeli military command also put a detailed plan to call up reserves and refill all reserve armories with all sorts of weapons, ammunition and equipment. Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak threatened Lebanon with five divisions and he later increased them to eight, however Hezbollah’s firm response was that “Barak’s eight divisions will be destroyed” in the field of battle.

Prominent Lebanese journalist Ibrahim al-Amin reiterated Monday Hezbollah’s warning that a "big surprise" awaits Israel should it decide to engage in another conflict with Lebanon.

Al-Amin, the editor in chief of the Lebanese daily Al-Akhbar, made the comments in a piece published under the headline of "Israel is threatening to destroy Lebanon. What will happen to it during wartime?"

Al-Amin, who usually uses reliable sources from within Hezbollah, warned that Israel needs to seriously consider the ramifications of a future attack on Lebanon.

He was responding to recent comments by senior Israeli occupation army officers that Israel will use "disproportionate power" in its next conflict with Hezbollah as it did in 2006 Second Lebanon War.

"What do they imagine Hezbollah's reaction will be? They actually say it has 40,000 missiles... Are they preparing for things that they have not considered and that others have not considered?" asked Al-Amin.

"Who said that Hezbollah does not think about all of the options which the enemy will use, including those which have been mentioned recently?"

HAARETZ: HEZBOLLAH-ISRAEL WAR LIKELY TO FLARE SOON
Meanwhile, the Israeli daily Haaretz said that Israel believes that war with Hezbollah could soon flare up as a result of a retaliatory attack by the resistance group to avenge the killing of its top military commander Imad Moghniyeh (Haj Redwan). "Flare up of war is a possible scenario," said Haaretz.

It said an Israeli raid is likely to take place in retaliation for the smuggling of anti-aircraft guns to Lebanon, a move described by Israel as a "red line."

Amos Harel, Haaretz's military correspondent, said both Israel and Hezbollah, however, have no intention of having "another violent confrontation."

Moreover, Haaretz quoted Giora Eiland, Israel’s former head of the National Security Council as saying that Israel had failed in its Second Lebanon War against Lebanon in 2006 and "could fail in the third because it fought the wrong enemy. It fought Hezbollah instead of the state of Lebanon."

Eiland saw that "no victory could be achieved against an organization active under the shadow of a state immunized against an Israeli military reaction."

He warned Barak that just as the Israeli army is improving, Hezbollah is improving too, “and you can win on a guerilla organization that is building its strongholds beneath villages.”

I would just like to point out that Hezballah are only human. Do not expect them to Win every war, In Fact the next war might be lost. And if it is we are all lost. This situation is truely dangerous. I say support the resistance as much as you can.

قال حسنين هيكل الوضع في لبنان : أعتقد أن لبنان اجتاز أزمة خطيرة جدًا كان من الممكن أن تعصف بهذا البلد، وقال: صحيح مفيش ديمقراطية في لبنان لكن هناك شيئًا أهم وهو الشرعية، فإذا كان هناك اتفاق علي وضع خاص للمسيحيين في لبنان يحقق لهم رئاسة الدولة، فهذا الوضع لا يتحقق بالديمقراطية وإنما بالتراضي، فالشرعية أهم من القانون والقانون لا يمكن أن تقوم له قائمة إلا إذا كان مرتكزًا علي الشرعية.

واستطرد: دخل لبنان حروبًا أهلية انتهت الحرب ثم باتفاق الطائف، وقال لي رفيق الحريري في باريس - أمام مستشاره غسان سلامة -: إ رئاسة الوزراء في لبنان كلفته مليار دولار
وقال «هيكل» أنا لا أحسب رفيق الحريري شهيدًا، فالشهداء هم الناس الغلابة الذين يموتون في سبيل قضيته، ولكن أن يصبح مليونيرًا شهيدًا فهذا شيء صعب، ولكن الحريري كان سياسيًا ماهرًا وضحية ظروف كثيرة، إلا أنه استطاع أن يمسك بطريقة أو بأخري بزمام هذا البلد، حيث كان يعمل في ظروف بالغة الصعوبة.

.

ووصف الكاتب الكبير لبنان بأنه بلد ذات تركيبة صعبة جدًا في حد ذاتها، لكن رفيق الحريري استطاع أن ينجز عملاً عظيمًا في الطائف، إلا أن بعض البلدان العربية مع الأسف تورطوا وعملوا أخطاءً مروعة في لبنان،

وتحدث هيكل عن حزب الله والسيد حسن نصر الله قائلاً: أعتقد أننا ظلمنا ناسًا كثيرًا في العالم العربي، وظلمنا بشدة السيد حسن نصر الله ولا أعلم سر الهجوم علي هذا الرجل، هذا الرجل تصرف كلبناني وليس كعميل، وحزب الله دخل معركة حياتية هائلة في ظل جو من التوتر، ولولا كثيرون في مقدمتهم حزب الله لأنفلت الكيان اللبناني كله، حتي جاءت الأزمة الأخيرة والتوتر الموجود بين التيارات اللبنانية، في حين تصور كثيرون أن بداية الأزمة هي يوم تدخل حزب الله ولكن هذا غير صحيح، فحزب الله تدخل حينما علم بتدخل عناصر مدربة من خارج لبنان، وكانت اللحظة الحرجة في الأزمة لحظة أن اغتيل «عماد مغنية» الرجل الذي أشرف علي الحرب أمام إسرائيل، وللأسف تواطأ في قتله ثلاثة أجهزة أمن عربية، فكيف يُقتل رجل خاض لسنوات طويلة معارك مشرفة؟! لذلك رأي حزب الله أن يحسم الأمور بسرعة
.

، أما بالنسبة لــ «وليد جنبلاط» فهو رجل مزاجه متقلب نصف سياسي ونصف شاعر ونصف فنان، عاش في ترف، لكنه يري أنه كان في مواجهة مع حزب الله وتوعد بضربات قاسمة، حيث كان يراهن علي وجود «ساركوزي» و«بوش» في المنطقة لكن رهانه كان خاسراً وحسم حزب الله السيطرة علي بيروت في 24 ساعة.

وحذر «هيكل» من المساس بحزب الله وسلاحه وقال: أعتقد أنها مسألة مهمة جداً أن يُحافظ علي حزب الله، وأن مجلس الوزراء أخطأ بقراره الإعلان عن شبكة اتصالات حزب الله، ولكن لا ينبغي أن يقع لبنان رهينة لحزب الله، إنما ينبغي أن يكون وجوده واضحاً ومهماً في المنطقة.البارحة
