From the link in my last post...

"Israeli planes set fire to fuel storage tanks at Beirut airport late Thursday and at the Jiye power station south of Beirut early Friday. They blasted the highway between Beirut and Damascus at several places, forcing motorists to take mountain side roads to the Syrian capital.

The fighter bombers also struck overpasses, intersections and residential buildings around Hezbollah's security headquarters in the Beirut suburb of Haret Hreik. But they missed the headquarters itself.

An AP photographer who toured the area Friday said he saw no traces of damage or devastation around Hezbollah's security building.

In Jerusalem, the Israeli military spokesman's office said the Hezbollah security headquarters was targeted in the air strikes.

Hezbollah media chief Hussein Rahal Friday confirmed Hezbollah's "security square" in southern Beirut had not been hit and told The Associated Press that reports to the contrary were "not true."

The air strikes in the area of the headquarters knocked down an overpass, badly damaged another, sheered off the facades of buildings, shattered apartment windows and sent balconies crashing onto cars parked below...

...A young man with blood pouring down his face and onto his bare chest was shown on Lebanese TV walking out of a damaged apartment building.

The TV showed a missile had gouged a huge crater out of the main Mar Mikhail crossroads in southern Beirut.

Firemen were seen struggling to put out several fires as glass, aluminum siding and stones littered the streets.

Israeli warships shelled the coastal highway north of Sidon, slowing down traffic considerably but not actually cutting the road, witnesses reported.

Israeli planes also hit transmission antennas for local TV stations in the eastern Bekaa Valley, a Hezbollah stronghold. Anwar Raja of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine - General Command said the planes struck the communications towers, but did not hit the guerrillas' base at Qousaya."


This is collective punishment.
