Are they participating on the Hizbollah side or facilitating what Hizbolla is doing?

It's possible. I can't believe that Israeli targeteers would deliberately strike a Lebanon compound without high-level approval for the strike.

But it could also be an error.. I'll wait and see what the explanation is, since this obviously going to be a contentious issue.

Btw, legally Lebanon and Israel have never signed a peace-treaty. They do have an "armistice" but the fact that Lebanon has permitted a terrorist group to conduct operations against Israel is obviously a violation of that armistice.

Israel could be sending that signal to the Lebanese government that they are about to expand the war if the Lebanese government doesn't take the necessary steps to rein in Hizbullah and disarm them.

Or at least stop their public rantings against the Israeli action.

But I would agree.. I don't find it politically smart to be targeting Lebanonese army troops.
