Unlikely. It came from Lebanon. Just because they are denying it doesn't mean they didn't do it.

I couldn't have said it better. I'll add one more thing to it. Noone should be "forced" to explain their opinion/reason either. Yes, Huckster, this is directed at your question to NBCintern, but perhaps silence is golden, huh? :wink:

Let's keep the discussion going. This is good so far (not the war or conflict though...).

People were asking what constitutes a war earlier. There's no debate now. Israel has delcared war on Hezbollah and, for all intents and purposes, Lebanon. There have been hints from Israel and in the media that declarations of war against Syria and Iran are imminent.

Iran warns of 'fierce response' should Israel strike at Syria

By Haaretz Service and News Agencies

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Thursday an Israeli strike on Syria would be considered an attack on the whole Islamic world that would bring a "fierce response", state television reported.

"If the Zionist regime commits another stupid move and attacks Syria, this will be considered like attacking the whole Islamic world and this regime will receive a very fierce response," Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying in a telephone conversation with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

The president made the comments after Israel struck Beirut airport and military airbases and blockaded Lebanese ports in reprisals that have killed 55 civilians in Lebanon since Hezbollah gunmen captured two Israeli soldiers a day earlier.

"He (Ahmadinejad) also said it was a must for the Organisation of the Islamic Conference to become more active regarding the new crisis created by the Zionist regime," state television reported.

I'm not aware of any US-Israel defense treaty that would apply here. Israel did not sign the North Atlantic Treaty.

Some days ago, I heard it suggested that WW3 had already started. I'm starting to come to that conclusion as well. Unlike WW1 and WW2, this global conflict has kind of sneeked up on us.
