Israel (or officially, some unknown entity) has been in the mood for striking big the past few days. Yesterday, a mystery blast killed Ayman Atallah Fayed, a senior member of Islamic Jihad. The group warned of reprisals against its top suspect, the Israeli government.
This follows on the heels of the assassination of Imad Mughniyeh, Hizballah's number two man. He is responsible for hundreds if not thousands of deaths--Americans, Israelis, and others. And of course, Hassan Nasrallah is warning of a great reprisal against Israel. And if we need any more proof of the close cooperation between Hizballah and Iran, the Iranian foreign minister attended Mughniyeh's funeral.
