Speaking on Israel Radio’s Reshet Bet on Thursday morning, Deputy Defense Minister Matan Vilnai confirmed that recent threats made by Hizbullah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah are real.
Vilnai, a retired IDF major-general explained that Hizbullah today does indeed posses missiles capable of striking Ben-Gurion International Airport.
The minister was responding to statements released on Hizbullah-affiliated al-Manar Television by Nasrallah this week, stating if Israel attacks Rafiq Hariri Airport in Beirut, rockets will be launched into Ben-Gurion Airport.
Israeli intelligence community officials during recent months have stated the terrorist organization has an estimated arsenal of 40,000 rockets of different capacities.

This can not be true! Olmert and Chalutz said we won the Lebanon war and would be very safe for many years to come.
Don’t forget the UN forces are there to make sure they do not re-arm, and Barak is monitoring the situation to make sure the north stays safe!
What on earth is this guy saying, trying to scare us?!?!
By the way, I just got a great deal on buying the Brooklyn Bridge…
