btw - I cited this article from Forbes as the source indicating that the Israeli soldiers were captured in Lebanon.

Beardedbruce claims he contacted Forbes and that the statement has been retracted.

Sure it has. Thats why its still on the net.

There are plenty of sources which claim the soldiers were captured in Southern Lebanon, not Israel. Thats why we should all realize that their capture was just an excuse to launch an offensive that has been planned long before their capture. Israel was just using the soldiers as an excuse to invade.
