Michael Ledeen, writing on NRO, points out that "[t]he Lebanese Tourism Ministry’s Research Center announced an amazing statistic in early July: in the first six months of the year, 60,888 Iranian tourists visited Lebanon."
That's a lot of Revolutionary Guardsmen "vacationing" in Antelias
Interestingly enough, doesn't the disabling of Lebanon's transportation infrastructure mean that these Iranian agents are now trapped in Southern Lebanon?
Trapped maybe, but happily so. They ensure Iran has a say in what Hezbollah does.
