Iraq War Spreads to Lebanon

Is it only a matter of time before U.S. troops head to Lebanon to fight al Qaeda. One U.S. Senator is calling for the sending of troops to Darfur. The intelligence community had been warning for years that the war in Iraq was breeding ground for Jihadists. Now we are seeing the result of the neocon agenda:
The fighting — which resumed for a third straight day after a brief nighttime lull — reflected the government’s determination to pursue the Islamic militants who staged attacks on Lebanese troops on Sunday and Monday, killing 29 soldiers. Some 20 militants have also been killed, as well as an undetermined number of civilians.

Next door, the Israeli war on Hamas threatens to spill over into Lebanon or vice versa:
Israel warned on Tuesday that no Hamas leader was immune from attack after an Israeli woman was killed by a rocket fired by militants in the Gaza Strip
