Current event/politics.

Some Wikipedia info for you on the rockets Hezbollah is launching into Israel.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katyusha

These are the small rockets that Hamas and Hezbollah manufacture on thier own. WWII technology

Hezbollah fighters and a Katushya launcher
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fajr-3

The Fajr-3 is an Iranian-made medium range ballistic missile. Iran announced its first successful test of the missile in April, saying it was the most advanced missile in its arsenal, was invisible to radar and could hold multiple warheads that could attack several targets at the same time.

On July 16 2006, Hezbollah fired Fajr-3 Rockets onto the Israeli city of Haifa, which is approximately 35 km south of Hezbollah positions in southern Lebanon. One of the rockets hit a rail depot and killed eight workers at the site.

Fairly obvious where Hezbollah is geting thier tech from isnt it?

?? US is innocent in this case. Iran is supplying the ballistic missiles. All the US has done is sell Israel Patriot anti-ballistic missiles.
