I remembered where I saw the bit about disputed territory. >>A sensitive issue still up in the air is the fate of Shebaa FARMS, the last remaining disputed area on the border, say U.S. and European officials. It is on the corner of Lebanon, Syria and Israel, which occupied it in the 1967 war. The United Nations considers the area Syrian territory but Hezbollah claims it for Lebanon, which Syria once -- but only once -- endorsed. Before the July 12 cross border raid, it was the site of the vast majority of clashes between Hezbollah and Israel after its withdrawal from Lebanon in 2000. European officials and some U.S. officials believe this needs to be settled to eliminate the flashpoint -- and Hezbollah's justification for keeping its arms.<< Message 22668938
