Hezb to target Israels infrastructure if attacked

BEIRUT (AFP) - Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah vowed on Tuesday that his party would bomb Israels infrastructure, including its airports and refineries, if the Jewish state attacks Lebanon. I say to the Israelis, if you attack Beiruts Rafiq Hariri airport we will attack Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv, he said in comments transmitted via video link to thousands of supporters massed in Hezbollahs stronghold in Beiruts southern suburbs. He added that should Israel also bomb Lebanons refineries, factories or power plants, his party would retaliate with all its might. I declare to you today that I accept this challenge, he added in a fiery speech commemorating the assassination of three Hez-bollah leaders by Israel.
