A friend, Elliot G., suggested to me, based on some research that
the "village" of Adeisseh does not function as a real village. Rather it is a stage set village concealing shooting platforms, fortifications, etc.
If so, perhaps the location was ideal for the Hezbollah/Lebanese army to carry out an ambush.
The sniper positions perhaps were already set up. All they had to do was to get UNIFIL to get Israel to delay the tree-clearing operation. Which was a mistake on Israel's part. There were several hours of delay which allowed the Hezb./Leb. army to bring in snipers, journalists, TV photogs and their cameras, etc.
Can any Lebanese bloggers confirm this?
