Ynet has a report that says Iranian Revolutionary Guards are fighting the IDF. The good news is that they’re also being killed by the IDF.
The bodies of Iranian Revolutionary Guard soldiers who were killed by the Israeli army in Lebanon have been transported to Syria and flown to Tehran, senior Lebanese political sources told WorldNetDaily.
The information was confirmed by Israeli and Egyptian security officials. It follows scores of reports the past few days Iranian soldiers have been aiding Hizbullah terrorists in Lebanon in their attacks against Israel, including help with the firing of rockets into Israeli population centers.
The Lebanese sources said between six and nine deceased Iranian Revolutionary Guard soldiers were brought in trucks last week into Syria for flight back to Iran. They said the bodies were transported along with the tens of thousands of Lebanese civilians fleeing the country into Syria.
[…] The Israeli officials said Iranian guards directed the firing two weeks ago of a radar-guided C–802 missile that hit an Israeli navy vessel off the coast of Lebanon, killing four soldiers. Israel says Iran acquired the missile from China.
The officials said the Iranian soldiers’ duties include keeping custody of long-range missiles within Hizbullah’s arsenal, including Zalzal rockets which are said to have a range of 125 miles, placing Tel Aviv within firing range.
Jordanian officials told WND they are “100 percent sure” Iranian Revolutionary Guard unit soldiers have fired rockets into Israel. They also said the Syrian army has provided Hizbullah with intelligence information on the locations of strategic Israeli targets to aid in Hizbullah rocket fire.
This report is not surprising in the least, as Israel has long known that Iranians have helped train Hezbullah. Reading between the lines, this report is yet another black eye for Iran. The Revolutionary Guards are supposed to be the elite fighting unit that can defeat the armies of the infidels, and yet, the IDF is going through Hezbullah efficiently and thoroughly, taking crucial positions one at a time—and killing Iranian soldiers while doing so.
Iran is proving itself to be more and more impotent against Israel by conventional means, which is why they want so desperately to get nuclear weapons.
I have no idea what the next stage is going to be after Israel finishes pushing Hezbullah north of the Litani River. But I sure would love to see a UN Security Council resolution going after Iran’s sponsorship of a terrorist group that attacked a UN member nation.
No, I’m not expecting it. But I’d love to see it.

Any quotes from World Net Daily should be viewed with suspicion. These people think Bush is trying to set up a New World Government
I agree with you, Greg—but YNet is publishing it. I’m trusting their editors to have checked out the story.
I have no doubt about the veracity of this report. It’s abundantly clear that Iran is the pulling the puppet strings on both Syria and Hezbollah.
A report tonight discussed the possibility that Hezbollah leader Nasrallah is taking refuge at the Iranian embassy in Beirut.
If that’s true, I would hope Israel bombs the place. It’s not like Iran has any respect for the sovereignty of embassies anyway.
Dear fellow humans,
Eversince its rise to power in ’79, Iran’s undemocratic terrorist government has been the greatest threat to our global peace, stability, and security. But it is only in recent years that the peoples of the world have arrived at this conclusion. Now, like always, there’s only one simple solution to this Great Problem: the solution is a Democratic Regime Change for Iran. The people of Iran have been uttering this throughout the past 27 years, but it is only now that the world is begining to recognize this fact.
