TEHRAN, Iran (AP) -- Surrounded by yellow Hezbollah flags, more than 60 Iranian volunteers set off Wednesday to join what they called a holy war against Israeli forces in Lebanon.
Iran says it will not send regular forces to aid Hezbollah, but apparently it will not attempt to stop volunteer guerrillas. Iran and Syria are Hezbollah's main sponsors.
"We are just the first wave of Islamic warriors from Iran," said Amir Jalilinejad, chairman of the Student Justice Movement, a nongovernment group that helped recruit the fighters. "More will come from here and other Muslim nations around the world. Hezbollah needs our help."

RE: Iranians volunteer to fight Israel
Duh????? Hezbollah comes from Iran and Syria. 1 smart bomb placed in their center will take the whole bunch out. Nice that they announced their trip. Their arrival should be welcome.

What borders are they planning to cross to get there? Syria's I would assume. That could get interesting. It would be wonderful if they could be tracke all during their journey, then, the second they cross into Lebanon, BOOM, and they are off to meet the virgins.
