Reuters: Islamic State seeking bases inside Lebanon: Lebanon security chief

WNU Editor: There has been continuous battles between Islamic State forces and Syrian/Hezbollah forces on the Lebanese-Syrian border for the past year. These borders are not that easily marked .... and I am sure that there are spots in Lebanon that IS forces would find to be a very tempting target to control due to their strategic position. As to the bigger picture .... these are just more signs that the wars in Syria and Iraq are spreading.

ISIS is militarizing the world.

Sooner or later they will run out of people too (just like Syria).

Theres an endless supply of stupidity in the world, so I highly doubt that they will rum out of manpower.

I don't believe the Iranians are still using human wave tactics. They built up their armed forces, but also like everyone else they do not have a bottomless pit of manpower.

Che Guevara was wrong. You cannot just always grow more people.
