Yoav Stern, Haaretz Correspondent and The Associated Press: Lebanese soldiers cross Litani River, begin deployment in southern Lebanon
Talkback
Title:First time in 20 years army has deployed at border
Name:Michigan
City: State: MI
Want to guess why the Lebanese army was not redeployed when IDF redeployed south decades ago and not even when it finally withdrew completely 6 years ago?
Want to guess who controlled the southern border before IDF moved in the first time in 1982?
Both times the border was controlled by a "state within a state", PLO the first time, Hezbolla the second.
