Syria, Lebanon will be 'one front' if war erupts against Israel: minister

Israeli Defence Minister Avigdor Lieberman said Tuesday that Lebanon and Syria would constitute "one front" against his country if a new war were to break out. Hezbollah and Israel fought a devastating conflict in 2006, and the Lebanese Shiite group is currently backing President Bashar al-Assad's regime in the Syrian civil war. "In the next war in the north of the country, Lebanon will not be the only front," Lieberman said in a speech to soldiers.
