Former CIA Advisor: "Significant" Israeli Operation Means Hezbollah Is Compromised (Plus: Nasrallah Up Next?)

That would be a pretty good day:
Former CIA official Bruce Riedel says all signs seem to indicate the Mossad was behind the killing [of Mugniyah]... Currently a senior fellow with the Saban Center for Middle East Policy at the Brookings Institute, he says Mugniyah's assassination proves Israel has successfully infiltrated Hizbullah and that even Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah knows he may also be in the crosshairs. "Israeli intelligence services have motive and they have proven their ability to strike in Damascus in the past. This is a significant operation, whether or not the Israelis want to publicly admit to it. He (Mugniyah) has topped the US and Israel's most-wanted list for a quarter of a century," said Riedel... And [Nasrallah] may have good reason to worry, said Riedel. "He's wondering who tipped off Mugniyah's location. That same individual could also reveal his own whereabouts... Mugniyah also acted as a go-between with Iranian intelligence and Hamas."
Here's the thing about that last part. Iran is Shiite and Hamas is Sunni. Does that mean that - contrary to the decade-long insistence of left-leaning sophisticates - Sunnis and Shiites really do work together? Because that would be a total shock.
