NAKSA DAY:
Israel is getting ready for what could prove to be a dangerous weekend.
The plan for NAKSA Day protest is on par with the events of two weeks ago, but Israel will have a few new tricks up their sleeve this time around.
I'm not sure Lebanon's military is in the mood for taking the blame of letting civilians push past their guards along their border.
Iran is planning on this three day event to be yet another distraction to events in Syria.
As long as Israel can keep from killing unarmed protestors, this event may not play out the way Iran would like it.
So, that is the key issue.
Can Israel keep the event from becoming too violent?
It will be violent to some degree, but dozens shot or multiple deaths is the road to success for Iran.
I have said this before, but look for Iran to insure someone gets shot!
They may have to get someone other than the IDF to do the shooting, but the key is Iran needs blood on TV.
Israel knows this and I would think they are planning how to prevent this.
If I was the IDF commander this weekend, I would video every unit and every action the entire three days.
Get out in front of the press coverage before the press coverage even starts!
How this weekend plays out is important to Israel, but it is critical to Iran.
If they cannot create the media environment they need, then the Syrian story will be front page again by Sunday morning.
