Did Israel Attack Companies in Lebanon in Direct Competition With Israeli Firms?

Those were the charges leveled by at least two companies on Democracy Now! today.

Unfortunately, I would not be at all surprised. Unhappy, yes. Surprised, no.

I'm afraid the government running Israel is a little too much like what we have here at home, which means many nasty things get done under an umbrella of happy horseshit. So I would not be surprised if any Lebanese corporations were bombed specifically (in addition to all the random acts of homicide committed outside of known Hezbollah strongholds).
