From The Jerusalem Post:Lebanese Defense Minister Elias Murr said Friday that in another few months, the Lebanese army would be able to fire anti-aircraft missiles at any IAF planes flying over Lebanon.
In an interview with the London-based newspaper Al Hayat, Murr said the army had received clear instructions to fire at any aircraft that violated Lebanese airspace or infiltrated the country's skies without authorization.
So let's get this straight. In "another few months" the Lebanese wish to have their SAM installations bombed to rubble. If all they want is to destroy their equipment and kill their personnel they could use their own artillery without possibly provoking the Israelis into another invasion.
