The Jordanian daily "Al-Wihda" quoted what it described as well informed sources as saying that a group of the Samir Geagea's Lebanese Forces (LF) and MP Walid Jumblatt's Progressive Socialist Party (PSP) are receiving 3-week military training in special camps in Israel. On the 20th of March, Lebanese House Speaker Nabih Berri unveiled "a phenomena of arming and training in some Lebanese regions," warning against sedition in the country. A Palestinian internet site in lands occupied in 1948 quoted the Jordanian daily as saying that this is the third batch of militiamen to arrive in Israel, coming by air from European countries with passports but without visas. It added that four Lebanese LF and PSP officials accompanied the groups and returned back to Beirut via Paris, which according to the daily, is aware of the ongoing trainings. Prominent American journalist Seymour Hersh said in his most recent study that an Israeli-American crew is overseeing Washington and Tel Aviv's relation with some groups in Lebanon, and that the crew had instructed the leaderships of these groups to execute a plot that would blow up the situation in Lebanon. This came as Hezbollah's deputy Secretary General Sheikh Naim Kassem told the Guardian daily about a secret American covert war against the party, through arming anti-Hezbollah militias in Lebanon."
