In this post I noted that Lara Deeb’s account of how the Israel/Lebanon conflict started was simply inaccurate. A reader has pointed out the following correction issued by MERIP:

CORRECTION: Due to an editor’s error, the initial version of this article misleadingly implied that Hizballah did not fire any rockets at Israel in July 2006 prior to the Israeli bombardment of Lebanon. In fact, there was a rocket attack in the Galilee on the morning of July 12, prior to Hizballah’s raid on the army convoy and the current Israeli military campaign. We regret the error.
