Iran 'smuggled arms' to Hezbollah on ambulances
(AFP) – 1 day ago

BEIRUT — Iran used Red Crescent ambulances to smuggle weapons and agents into Lebanon during Hezbollah's 2006 war with Israel, a leaked US diplomatic cable showed on Monday.

The 2008 classified cable which originated in Dubai quotes an Iranian source as saying the Iranian Red Crescent was used as a cover by members of the elite Revolutionary Guard to enter Lebanon during the conflict.

From the Senate not wanting to stop earmarks to this, man, it's just one shattering revelation after another today.  Who could possibly have suspected this?!?

Wasn't there a video floating around at one time of Hamas loyalists in Gaza taking a weapons cache from a Red Crescent ambulence?

Or something similar.  I remember seeing video of some Hezbolla Homies using a UN abulance for their personal whip.  The MSM was too busy condeming the Israelis for firing on innoccent "medical personnel" to pay much attention to it even though it was all over the internet at the time.

I mean...it's kind of expected from Islamic terrorists. Seems like they prefer using civilian means of transportation over military...they used civilian aircraft in the 9/11 attacks, they use civilian vans and other various vehicles in suicide bombings, the "palestinian" "military" uses civilian children as body shields...excuse my French but, no shit.
