[Lightstalkers] Bruno Stevens - On July 17, Lebanese TV started to show footage of a large metallic object falling from the sky and exploding upon touching the ground. The TV announced it as an Israeli jet being shot down over an army base in Kfar Chima, about 4 miles from where I was. I rushed to the scene. Time Magazine had my original caption, but chose to publish the following: "The wreckage of a downed Israeli jet that was targeting Hizballah trucks billows smoke behind a Hizballah gunman in Kfar Chima, near Beirut. Jet fuel set the surrounding area ablaze." After returning three times to the site and collecting more evidence, I modified my original caption to: "The Israeli Air Force bombed a group of Hizballah-chartered trucks parked at the back of large Lebanese Army barracks. At least one of these trucks contained a medium-range ground-to-ground missile launcher. At least one missile was hit, misfiring high into the sky before falling down and starting a huge fire in the barracks' parking lot." [See picture of destroyed Hizballah medium-range missile launcher hidden on truck at Lebanese Army base.] This is a very important piece of evidence showing probable collusion between Hizballah and the Lebanese Army. There is little doubt that the Lebanese Army was aware of the presence of at least one missile launcher and at least one large missile in their parking lot.
