After Israel's refusal to grant the former Lebanese defense minister amnesty, and being held captive by the new self-proclaimed Hezbollah government, the new Prime Minister has decided to make an example of the defense minister and has ordered his public death by guillotining. This will be followed by a triumphant parade by Hezbollah fighters and a speech in Beirut. This is rumoured to incorporate the announcement of the introduction of strict new Sharia religious law in Lebanon.
The Israelis in the meantime are drafting reserve forces to beef up defences along the Gaza Strip. It is rumoured that there is also a paratrooper drop planned to take Beirut.
Israel's Defense Ministry spokesman has warned Syria that Israel is prepared to use all necessary measures, including full-scale war with Syria, to pacify Lebanon under an Israeli banner, and has suggested that Syria pull back to its border to avoid further escalation.
