Fearing of Hizbullah Attack, "Israeli" Jets Scrambled to Northern Border

"Israel" Air Force scrambled fighter jets to the border with Lebanon after a "suspicious aircraft" was detected approaching occupied Palestinian airspace.
"Two jets and an attack helicopter were scrambled to the border one hour before the fast ended after an unidentified aircraft was spotted flying very close to the border. The aircraft, together with ground forces, conducted searches on the ground and shortly later returned to base after the plane turned around and flew back north into Lebanon," the Jerusalem Post reported.
The incident, according to the "Israeli" intelligence officials, has raised fears of a Hizbullah attack during the "Israeli" holiday season to avenge the assassination of resistance leader martyr Imad Moghnieh earlier this year.
A similar incident occurred in April when fighter jets were scrambled to Acre after an unidentified aircraft was spotted over the city, raising fears that a plane had infiltrated "Israeli" airspace. The plan turned out to be an "Israeli" civilian aircraft that had forgotten to coordinate its flight plan with aviation authorities.
The Jerusalem Post said that intelligence assessments have raised the possibility that Hizbullah believes that with Olmert heading a transition government and Livni still working on forming a coalition, neither one will want to respond harshly to an isolated Hizbullah attack and risk another war erupting in the North.
