From the BBC website comes an article about factional fighting within the Palestinian Ain al-Hilwe refugee camp in Southern Lebanon. The combatants are Jund al-Sham and Fatah, here's the bit that caught my eye:
"Formed in 2002, Jund al-Sham - literally the Army of Greater Syria - is a radical splinter group. Its name refers to the area covering the modern states of Syria and Lebanon and the Palestinian territories - which the group says form one Muslim land."
Hold on, can you think of another Country that might be in that area that Jund al-Sham could also want to form part of "one Muslim land"? Have the BBC forgotten about Israel or are they still trying to convince us that the Islamists only want Israel to retreat back to its 1967 borders?
