My Way News - Israel troops on alert after Lebanon govt falls
My Way News reports: "Israeli troops in the north were on alert Thursday over worries that the political turmoil in Lebanon might spill over into renewed violence on their shared border, following the collapse of the Lebanese government."

My Way News - Hezbollah aims for more political power in Lebanon
My Way News reports: "Hezbollah, already Lebanon's most potent military force, is now making a bid to expand its political power by installing an ally as prime minister now that it has brought down the government. If Hezbollah succeeds, the Shiite militant group and its patrons in Iran and Syria would have far more sway in this volatile corner of the Middle East - something Washington has worked to prevent."
