I, for the life of me, can't believe that there are actual editors who give a pass to this guy's reporting: "“This crime will not go unpunished but the leadership of the resistance [Hezbollah] is wise and knows how to respond,” says a Shiite source close to senior Hezbollah officials." This is a joke, really. There is nothing you can say about it. Among people who actually follow and study Hizbullah, Blanford is the best example they have for lousy reporting. And notice that this source is not close to one Hizbullah official but he is close to "Hizbullah officials" in the plural. (thanks Basim)
