http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=133569Elements of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, or IRGC, have re-entered Lebanon to provide training to Hezbollah's military wing in preparation for any renewed armed conflict between Hezbollah and Israel, according to a report from Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin.
The training also would include introducing new weapons in Iran's arsenal to Hezbollah – and IRGC training on how to use them.
Hezbollah and Israel engaged in a 34-day military conflict in August 2008 following Hezbollah's kidnapping of three Israeli soldiers.
There already are concerns in Israel that its defenses may not be adequate to deal with a surge of missiles and rockets that Hezbollah could fire into Israel.
The quiet reintroduction of IRGC troops follows the recent signing by Iran of security agreements with Syria and Qatar that could allow the introduction of Iranian troops into those countries. Qatar also is the overseas headquarters of the U.S. Central Command.
While Qatar belongs to the Sunni, Saudi Arabian-backed Gulf Cooperation Council, it has a population that is 60 percent Shiite and is close to Iran.
