Hizbullah Has Infiltrated Lebanese Army Intelligence

(Jerusalem Post) Peled Arbeli - Maj. (res.) Tal Beeri, head of the Research Department at the Alma Research and Education Center, said Sunday that Hizbullah has infiltrated the Lebanese Army's intelligence directorate and the IDF cannot treat the Lebanese army as an independent entity. "For years, Hizbullah has operated numerous Shi'ite officers within [Lebanon's military intelligence] for its own benefit and has concentrated efforts to consolidate its influence because of the Intelligence Directorate's central role in the Lebanese Army and its significant impact on the army's operational activity. "Continued cooperation with Hizbullah from within the army compels Israel to take defensive measures." Due to Hizbullah's significant influence within the Lebanese Army, Beeri said most of the current, ongoing "disarmament activity" taking place south of the Litani River is happening in coordination with the terror group. "This coordination is reflected in the providing of prior information, coordinating arrival to certain areas, and with high probability of even returning 'confiscated' weapons to Hizbullah."
